Does this TV suffer from and Clouding, Banding or any other uniformity issues? Have you had any issues with the TV thus far?

Not when watching TV or movies. When displaying solid white or color screens, I can see a slight bit of uniformity issues, but not during regular content. Also when I was playing a game on the PS4 and the TV was in Game Mode, I saw flashlighting/clouding during black loading screens, but not during gameplay. I guess Game Mode turns off the Local Dimming?

Not at all. It is a great picture and the curve in the screen eliminates any distortion when viewed from the sides. A great tv!

Update on my kdv2500 for anyone who cares.. my first one developed 3 dead pixels(2 red, 1 blue), so i exchanged it within the 30 days and bought the extended warranty as long as i was there, having learned my lesson. now the new one has 2 dead pixels (1 red, 1 green) and that infamous "clouding" issue when the screen goes or is supposed to go all black. I'm going to exchange it one more time and if there's an issue with the next one I'm probably gonna go with the 46' model or another tv all together. BTW i called Sony Support to see what they cover in terms of dead pixels and the said they won't do any service unless at least 10 blow out. IMO that's ridiculous. It should be like 3 or something, not 10.

I have played Xbox 360 and PS4 on mine without any lag or banding. I have zero complaints with this TV.

Nope never noticed any thing like that. Check your TV settings, in the burn in protection settings there is a setting called pixel shift, its turned on by default it moves the picture a small amount every couple of minuets to protect from burn in's. I suppose your settings could be off the default settings are pixel shift: on, Horizontal: 4, vertical: 4, time: 4 min. This probably your problem you could try turning it off at your own risk as you may have a higher chance of burn in's and most likely image retention. You payed good money though if that doesn't fix it return it! Samsung is know for problematic plasma tv's. I wish you the best! Nope never noticed any thing like that.

Hi! No, I have not had any problems at all with my RCA LED24C45RQD TV, with the picture quality.

No issues here, been using for 7 months now. However, I noticed one day my HD was horrible quality, and it started freezing and jitters. I tried to troubleshoot it all around on the TV settings and no luck, then I did a reset on the HD cable box and it was fixed!

I purchased mines from a Sony outlet in December 2010 and the only issue I have had with it is a distorted line on the right side of the screen every so often when it's turned on. The line goes away afte about 10 minutes tho. My son has used it as a gaming tv the last three years and its still the best tv in my house..

I just bought Vizio XVT473SV from Dell, which was delivered last week. Worked fine for a day or so, but I'm noticing some screen distortion/flickering occasionally. Also some audio cut-out. Some posts suggest this might be standard def vs HD channel issues. (cable) I've not had any indication of visual or audio problem yet when using the Internet Apps or when hooking up my laptop to it. But it doesn't always work right when I turn it on with it tuned to the cable box. The problem this morning with flickering was a situation with TV/cable turned on, cable tuned to a standard def channel from the night before. I tuned to an HD channel, the screen still flickered. I turned off cable and tv. Turned back on and all was well. I'm not happy to be seeing these kinds of problems within a day of having the tv though.

I've had the TV for almost a month now and I love my TV, I see no discrepancies whatsoever and even though it takes a while to get used to (I.e. Microphone, apps, etc.) the viewing and the screen is flawless (knock on wood ;P) hope this helps!

I have not changed a thing. The picture setup out of the factory was fine for me. It is so much better than my previous tv.

Not as glossy as Plasma, but not matte either. I have lots of windows in the room with the TV and some times the reflection is bothersome. I have needed to cover the windows during the day so the picture can be seen better. My TV is a 47". My previous smaller 42" flat screen TV has a more matte finish than this LG and was better to watch in a room with lots of windows. But after all that, I do love this LG TV as it has an awesome picture and I love all of its features it has too.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I am still debating between this model and another. Let me know what you think about the TV. Thanks.

Can other owners verify that there is a grainy feature to certain lighter areas of the picture? Is this standard for plasma in general or just Panasonic plasma?

I actually ended up returning my TV, as the clouding was very bad, and also the blu ray player was just as bad as well. It's a shame, since the TV did have a very nice picture watching sporting events. I was surprised to see Amazon has 40 something used TV's for sale on the same model, so I assume many people are having the same issues.

I like mine so far. I only bought it for the price. I don't hear any buzz so far, but it's only been used about three or four times. I have a Samsung 46" lcd 1080p in my bedroom and I think the picture on this 50 inch holds up well against it. Someone in one of the reviews I read on this plasma tv says that there is a chip that prevents "burn in" on these newer plasmas. Well not on this one. The manual clearly states that burn in is an issue and to turn down brightness and contrast while playing video games or dvds. We'll see what happens I guess.

No, I've had no trouble with tint changes or any other changes. My TV has worked great
