TC-P65ZT60 vs TC-P65VT60; TC-P60ZT60 vs TC-P60VT60

Although both Panasonic ZT60 and VT60 use the NeoPlasma black 3000 panel, which translates to the black levels being mostly identical, there is one significant distinction: in case of the former, the air layer that is typically found between the front glass and the panel itself is removed, which allows the ZT60 to have an improved light transmission, as well as to reduced internal reflections, which in turn leads to the best overall picture quality any Panasonic plasma TV has ever achieved.

• The ZT60 also has more advanced AR (Anti-reflective) filter: the Ultimate Black, in comparison to the tier-two model, so if you plan on using the TV in predominantly bright environments, the flagship set is the better option thanks to its beefed-up abilities to counteract on-screen reflection, in addition to preserving the black color depth when viewed in high ambient light conditions.
• The other important differentiation between them is due to the VT60 having an integrated camera, which the step-up model lacks. However, the vast majority of the Smart TV features, such as my Home Screen, the web browser, and the voice interaction via the built-in microphone in the Touch pad controller, can be found on both.
• Due to the foward-facing speakers, the VT60 has the upper-hand in terms of delivering clearer sound. That said, the total audio power output is 20W on both, as well as the speaker configuration being 2.1 on either one of them (meaning there is a sub-woofer).
• Each has 3 HDMI and 3 USB ports. The SD card reader is present on both, and so are the Ethernet port and the built-in Wi-Fi.
• They both are equipped with the active 3D system, and two pairs of shutter glasses are included with any of the two TVs.

The ZT60 comes in the 65-Inch TC-P65ZT60 and the 60-Inch TC-P60ZT60 class.
The VT60 is available in the 65-Inch TC-P65VT60, the 60-Inch TC-P60VT60, and the 55-Inch TC-P55VT60 class as well.
