Not everything is new for the New Year. Are you still squinting at that old teeny TV? Even after the holidays, we're still sniffing out a few good deals, so you can upgrade to a brand new HDTV without busting your post-holiday budget.
In fact, we just found Amazon selling the Panasonic 55-inch TC-P55UT50 3D Plasma for just $849.99. This set's original MSRP is $1399.99, meaning you can save a cool $550 on this purchase. It even includes free shipping right to your front door.
This 55-incher is a 2012 model, but it still has many of the features you'd want in a new HDTV. It has active 3D technology for a full 1080p experience in 3D and 2D, as well as a 2D-to-3D conversion feature, fast-switching phosphors, and the Neo Plasma Black 2500 FDD (Focused Field Drive) for super-sharp images.

The one thing that the TC-P55UT50 doesn't have is built-in WiFi. However, we don't consider that to be a dealbreaker here. You can hardwire it via the set's Ethernet jack or add in wireless connectivity via an add-on adapter. Either way you network it, you'll certainly want to do that. The set features VIERA Connect access, which means tons of web-based entertainment options, including movies, TV shows, music, social networking, and much more, all via the included remote.

We're not sure how long Amazon plans to sell this set at this price. Just make sure to order directly through them -- and not one of the retailer's third-party merchants. Amazon is offering the discounted price, the free Super Saver Shipping option, and Enhanced Delivery. This purchase also qualifies for Amazon's TV Low Price Guarantee, which means that if you can find this set for less within 14 days of the ship date, Amazon will refund you on the price difference.
