CNET has posted their Panasonic SDR-S150 review. While the reviewer liked the overall design, she did not make much of the video quality. The menus and commands were easy to understand, and the small, lightweight design makes the SDR-S150 perfect for those on the go. However, battery life was found to be way below par, and video quality not much better.

… once I got home, I couldn’t help but be disappointed with the results. Videos never achieve true sharpness and display severe interlace artifacts, and weaknesses are exacerbated by poor auto white balance–the sensor is on the side of the camcorder–and inconsistent metering.

This is a far cry from CamcorderInfo’s Panasonic SDR-S150 Review, which was all over the video quality and how good it was.
