User Review for Pioneer PDP-427XG (42-inch plasma)
Misleading advertising from Pioneer.
Feb 7, 2008Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: Good image quality ONLY when watching DVD and HDTV channels.
Cons: Strong 'burn-in' image/residue problem in less than 3 months of usage.
Opinion:
Pioneer Singapore website claims 'burn-in' images is no longer an issue with their new 7th Generation of Plasma TV.
When 'burn-in' image discovered (in less than 3 months of usage) and contacted Pioneer, they claim that this issue is still prevalent and unavoidable and is stated in the user's manual. If you don't buy this Pioneer plasma tv, how would you be able to get a hold of the user's manual to know this 'burn-in' issue still exist?
They took back my plasma TV for 'washing' and after 6 weeks, they returned it to me with the 'burn-in' residue still visible.
I have to keep changing the aspect ratio every 15 minutes when watching TV programmes to prevent channel logo to be burnt-in.
