HDTV Reviews

Pioneer is still showing some love for the plasma displays with the PureVision PDP-5070. It’s a 50-inch, 1080p HD plasma display that, which has a very nice look, and from the specifications should provide a great image. Pioneer redesigned the Pioneer PDP-5070 to improve some of the workings, and most importantly the red and blue phosphors which makes the image brighter. There is also an integrated ATSC/NTSC tuner and a USB port.
