Anyone still rocking a Plazma?

Was thinking and looking at monitors recently and Plazma shot into my mind. After taking a quick look, they don't even make them anymore! I had no idea production was completely halted. Looks like in 2013 after a quick search.

So curious if anyone still has a working Plazma TV or monitor.
Had a buddy that got one way back maybe even in the late 90's early 2000's like 01 or 02. I remember it looked pretty good, but it ran pretty warm.

Oh yeah man they run warm. I have a 2010 Panasonic 42 inch and the back is all metal, like a big heatsink. It says 298w on it, I thought it was 600.. glad I double checked that lol.

As for how it looks as a monitor? I thought it was terrible tbh. Must be a low end model I guess.. outside of that I have no experience with them. I got it for a hundred bucks back in 2017..

Edit:

Now I have glasses, so it might not be as bad as I thought

I saw them, their Refresh rates/response times were as smooth as a CRT, Colors were vibrant and not subdued.

But the text though, I found like this kind of text impossible to read. But I have glasses now.. colors and stuff were pretty decent.

It is literally a space heater

My uncle has an old LG plasma that developed some insane burn-in over the years. OLED's pretty much completely replaced that niche. Instant pixel response times in OLED do show its sample and hold nature, though... Good read:

Why Do Some OLEDs Have Motion Blur?

Written by Mark Rejhon (aka Chief Blur Buster) originally in 2013. Edited for 2019. OLED has been regarded as a Holy Grail for eliminating motion blur. Unfortunately, not always: The portable Playstation Vita, and the iPhone X and Samsung Galaxy still have lots of motion blur during fast...

our has died, of course it was TV not a monitor. Yeah, nice stuff back then, but, lifespan is a rofl.

I have a mint condition 65" Panasonic VT-30 and it's for sale. Very low hours of use on it, went 4K a couple of years after I bought it. 1080p and it weighs 170 lbs (The display screen is glass). At the time I bought it there was no better consumer TV on the market. I fired it up a few months ago and it still works perfectly.

True, it have better quality then my LED TV

I remember seeing a big plasma in a store that had 4 8cm fans along the back cover to cool it ha ha. And now I have my OLED that's about 3mm thick around the top half. Crazy. Display tech still has a way to go though, as fantastic as it looks we still have smearing on motion, and so far the only thing that helps is black frame insertion, which kinda sucks. And VRR should be a standard on all screens.

Used to have one but got rid of it due to how much electric the damn thing used lol
Was a nice screen though, I think it was a Panasonic 3d plasma 43 or 50 inch thing.
