While Panasonic is mostly known for its Plasma TVs, they also have a good variety of LCD TVs. The Viera S1 series is a mid-range 1080p LCD TV that has some strong features, making it a good option for most users. One of the features we like the most is its great wide-viewing angle, its IPS Alpha panel delivers a 178 degree viewing angle that makes images look bright and clear from almost any angle.
