Panasonic TY-EW3D3MU 3D Active Shutter Eyewear for Panasonic 3D HDTVs (Medium) (2011 Model)

We have a 2010 Panasonic Plasma TV, model TC-P54VT25. At the time we bought the TV, we also bought 2 sets of the 3D glasses, and paid $150 each for them. Although we will keep the old 3D glasses because the still work, my husband and I both like these glasses better than the old ones. We like these 3D glasses better because: - They are much lighter weight than the old 3-D glasses and much more comfortable. - You don't have to install nose pieces to make them fit. - They can be worn comfortably with or without prescription eyewear. - They are rechargeable. This could be a plus or a minus depending on your use. If you don't use 3D often as we don't, you have to plan ahead to make sure the battery is charged. Whereas, changing a battery may be more convenient as long as you have a spare. - They connected immediately to our TV when the 3D movie started and stayed connected. They do seem to click off when you turn your head away from the TV, but click on immediately when you turn back. - The glasses can be switched to 2D with a switch on the top of the glasses for people that do not feel comfortable with 3D viewing.At this point in time, other than having to recharge them before using them if the charge runs out, I can think of any cons for these glasses. At the time I bought these 3D glasses, I also bought 2 of the Incredisonic Vue Series VSUI-1600. In comparing the two, the VSUI-1600 work as well, but the more narrow side allow light from the room to be seen that can be distracting. The plus for the VSUI-1600 glasses is that they are much less expensive. The VSUI-1600 glasses use disposable batteries that may be more convenient when you don't what to take time to charge batteries. I will describe the VSUI-1600 3D glasses in my review for them.

The Panasonic system of 3D television works fine. In theory, it alternates full 1080-line images on the screen, and the brightness and duration of the images are managed such that there is no flickering. Used with your matching Panasonic flatscreen, the glasses render a perfect, bright, 3D image.(CAUTION: Be absolutely certain you get the glasses which match your specific model of flatscreen! Panasonic has at least two different, incompatible sytems! One uses an IR link, and one uses a Bluetooth link, and only the matching glasses will work!)The glasses themselves could be better designed. I realize they must be wearable both by viewers who wear corrective glasses as well as those who do not, and these seem to be intended as a compromise, for both. The result is, they are a little too big and loose if you don't wear glasses, and a little awkward and even precarious if you do.Most often, the 3D TV will be in a home with one to four viewers, and if this is you, it's best to get specific sizes of glasses for each person. I have both the large and medium sizes, and the difference between them is slight. The large size perches over my regular eyewear, but it's clunky and I have to sit very still.The glasses charge quickly, as claimed, and operate for long periods without recharging.

These glasses work great.Pros:-The instructions are easy to follow and it is easy to use-Feels comfortable and are very light weight-The 3D images look very good. Doesn't darken the image too much.-Good battery life. I have used them for about 13 hours and it hasn't needed a charge (besides the initial charge when you first get it)Cons:-If you have a window behind where you sit, you can see some reflections on the bottom of the glasses. Not a big deal if you can close the shades.-Smudges easily, so you will probably want a dry cloth to wipe them every now and then.End note: This is my first pair of active 3D glasses that I have bought so I can not compare them to any other pairs. Overall it's a solid pair of 3D glasses.

I recently bought two pair for my husband for our anniversary. Both pair have been used, maybe, 3-4 times by adults only and they do not work. When my husband turned on the glasses the 3D mode did not work and he said that there were 'black spots' in the glasses that permit the glasses from working propery. I received the glasses on June 18th and less than a month of having them, they have already broke. The glasses broke on July 12th.I still need to contact the seller/amazon to have this matter taken care of and if they are not properly taken care of DO NOT SPEND your money! I will post another comment once I contact amazon/seller.- Dissatisfied customer

No battery life. Would not recharge.

These 3D glasses provide full HD 3D viewing which is pretty cool. They are fairly lightweight and comfortable. They operate immediately upon receiving the 3D sensor from TV. They maintain their connection well even when moving a distance from TV. They also cease 3D function when away from TV...What I mean is, they will automatically stop the active shutter (3D capabilities) when away from the TV. This is nice so you can get your popcorn without having to remove the glasses because of possible vision disruption. When you return to the TV, they will automatically sync again.Overall, these are very nice 3D glasses giving a true, clear and cool 3D viewing experience. Okay, so why not 5 stars? Although 3D is pretty cool, I, personally, don't like having to wear glasses at all and 3D is obviously not fully matured.

The product shipped to me did not work even after charging. It did not meet my expectations.

Like it somuch such a good 3D glasses. I had waited for it for several months before I got this one,because there no Panasonic 3D glasses at local store. So I bought it from amazon. It did give me a big surprise! The price is very good and what impressed me most was the very fast delivery.I am really satisfied with it. Thank you!

I Have 3 pairs of these in Medium and they are the Best for performance and comfort. However my 8 year old daughter still finds the size small too large and sloppy, with a Lot of external light shining in and the glasses sliding down her face.. so we would recommend looking for Child size if needing these for a Under 10 year old.At 79.99 these are a Steal , as my 3 Pairs Medium size Panasonic TY-EW3D bought locally cost $189.00 each.

Bought 4 pairs of these for a newly purchased used 2011 Panasonic Viera 3D TV. They work great. No need to fuss and have the TV recognize the glasses like the newer models. Just plug them in for 30 minutes to charge them and then sit back and enjoy a 3D movie. Absolutely love them !!

I knew what I was buying. Works as expected!
