I also hope that 42X10 owners or those who have encountered the unit can give some insight and feedbacks regarding the unit.  ;)

Unfortunately I think all owners of this unit are taking a long siesta.  ;)

I just got one a few days ago .... but it's still in the box.

I picked the 42X10 over the 42C10 because of the anti-reflection filter.  I combed through many forums to find out if there was really a difference between the two.  Some said they both share the same panel. Some didn't agree.

Several posts I read convinced me there was a difference.  The local seller also told me about the anti-reflective filter.

The 42X10 cost just P2,000 more than the 42C10.  Seemed like a small price to pay for the added HDMI port, SD card reader and reduced reflectivity (most important).

I'm very happy with a Panny plasma that I bought earlier this year.  I know I'll be happy with the 42X10 too, going by the glowing customer reviews on the internet forums

I also believ the 42X10 has the swivel type stand as opposed to the fixed stand on the 42C10.   ;)

Am also planning to get the 42x10 over the 42C10 when i found out these added features... kindly comment on your experience...

1. Swivel - is it stable enough? baka lumuwang overtime at mag topple ang TV.
2. anti reflective filter - i hope its not like anti peek filter... baka mag suffer naman yung viewing angle.
3. SD slot can play video - has anyone tried this? Full HD or DVD quality?

I guess am going to SnS this weekend to see for myself ;D

Hi an2ny888,

Where and how much did you buy your 42x10? Do you have the opportunity to test it side by side with 42c10? If yes, can you give us some feedback regarding your impression on 42x10, diff. with 42c10, etc. Would like to know if 42x10 has AR filter?

And lastly, would appreciate if you can post some pictures re - your 42x10 in action.

Thanks and Merry Christmas!
