Panel detail
Panel detail	Panasonic's UK TX-P42G10B, TX-P46G10B and TX-P50G10B manual specifies native Full HD NeoPDP plasma panels. Its 600 Hz sub-field drive branding does not establish the native image refresh rate, which is left unpublished here.	UK VT65B models are this generation's regional version of the VT60 family. Full HD active-shutter 3D, with two sets of Bluetooth eyewear supplied. Marketed 3000 Hz Focused Field Drive is not entered as native refresh.

Picture processing
Picture processing	NeoPDP panel with Panasonic Intelligent Frame Creation, colour management and 3D-COMB. The UK set's user menus do not expose white-balance or gamma controls, unlike the European G10E according to HDTVTest.	NeoPlasma panel and Intelligent Frame Creation; professional calibration controls (exact UK reviews and maker eHELP).
Picture modes
Picture modes	Dynamic, Normal, Cinema and Game, with separate picture-mode settings and an Eco ambient-light option within each mode.	THX 3D and ISF calibration controls described by Expert Reviews; maker eHELP documents professional modes and picture settings.
Motion handling
Motion handling	HDTVTest identifies a 600 Hz sub-field drive for the NeoPDP panel; this is a drive technique, not the native frame refresh. It found good motion clarity with Intelligent Frame Creation off and no telecine judder from 1080p/24 HDMI input.	Native panel refresh is not published in the read UK maker documents and is omitted. Focused Field Drive, input frequencies and mains frequency are separate measures.

In the box
In the box	N2QAYB000428 remote, two R6 batteries, pedestal, cable clamper, mains lead, two ferrite cores, cleaning cloth, instructions and guarantee documents. HDTVTest said the UK model was available to buy by 15 April 2009, while What Hi-Fi? had reviewed it on 30 March; these sources do not establish the earliest on-sale month, so the release field uses year precision.	Pedestal, N2QAYB000863 remote, N2QBYB000026 Touch Pad Controller, four R6 batteries, electronic Touch Pen/R03 battery, two sets of 3D eyewear, mains lead, AV adaptors and cable accessories. UK bundle is distinct from other regional VT60 versions. Panasonic Malaysia listed a planned 18 April 2013 regional availability date; the exact UK first-sale day and earliest international actual sale are unproved, so release remains 2013.
