Reviews of the Pioneer Kuro PDP-5020FD
-
CNET Review
The Good: Produces the deepest shade of black of any big-screen display we've tested; accurate color decoding; dejudder processing option; 72Hz mode for 1080p/24 sources works well; superb antireflective screen; streams photo, music, and video files over home network; fine connectivity with four HDMI and one PC input.
The Bad: Expensive; inaccurate primary colors; lacks advanced picture controls; frame causes minor reflections.
The Bottom Line: Best-in-class black levels and excellent all-around performance places the Pioneer PDP-5020FD near the top of the picture quality heap, but it will cost you.
