Value Comparison Summary The Vizio SV471VXT is a 47-inch 1080p LCD television. It's not cheap, but we found the performance to be worth the money in most regards.
Blacks & Whites The blacks were not as deep as the Panasonic, but the peak brightness far exceeded it. The contrast ratio on the Vizio was also better.
Color Accuracy The color accuracy was good on both the Panasonic and the Vizio, producing even, relatively smooth transitions. Neither was perfect, so you can expect some color banding, but not so much that it will ruin the viewing experience.
Motion The Vizio, in our opinion, produced much smoother looking motion with very little artifacting. The motion artifacting on the Panasonic TC-P50U1 was definitely an issue for us.
Viewing Effects The Panasonic, as a typical plasma TV, far exceeded the Vizio SV471VXT in viewing angle. If you need to service a wide room, you should probably be choosing a plasma over an LCD.
Connectivity With an extra HDMI and a USB port, the Vizio SV471VXT has an edge over the Panasonic.
