Need help deciding on which LCD HDTV to buy!!! Site with lots of reviews? Which LCD is best to buy???

Q. I have searched and searched for LCD HDTV's, but am unable to come to a complete decision on what one to buy. I am looking for something between the 40in and 46in range. Have found good reviews on SONY and SAMSUNG, but am still unsure what LCD HDTV is the best choice. Could it be something other then Sony or Samsung? PLEASE, this is a big purchase and I want to make the right choice, no point spending like 2,000 dollars and not being happy!!! Thank you!

A. I don't know much about LCD HDTVs either. However I recently purchased a 40" Sony Bravia LCD HDTV and I absolutely love it.
It's not as bright as a plasma, but it's good enough for me. My xbox360 looks amazing on it. You might also want to get one with more HDMI slots, as the tv i got only has one slot.
www.circuitcity.com has reviews from buyers. Also you can find reviews on cnet.com and amazon.com.
GOOD LUCK!

This is the TV I got

I paid $1500 for it. Tax included.

But you may like this one better it's a 46"

however both only have 1 HDMI slot. If you have a lot of stuff you like to plug in that is HDTV capable, you may want one with more slots. Right now I only use the slot for my XBOX360.

Whats the difference between dynex 32"(dx-lcd32) and dynex 37"(dx-lcd37) lcd hdtv?

Q. I'm looking at the specs at BestBuy.com and I cannot find the Response time for the 37" Dynex. On the 32" it has a 8ms response time ample for gaming. I bought the 37 and it lags a bit with some of the games. And i was wondering if it had an 8ms response time too. It doesn't list it in the manual, on the dynex website or anywhere. Bottom line, What is the refresh rate for a dynex 37" lcd hdtv? (dx-lcd37)

A. 8ms is usually the minimum. dynex is a low quality hdtv, and although the 32" and 37" have different size panels the interio electronics are most likely very similiar ( it cheaper to use the same parts ) so i dont see a reason that dynex to change specs between sizes. so my educated guess would be it is 8ms. just so you know lcds as a whole have had problems with lag. especially with games. some dont show any lag at all , my 32" toshiba shows no lag. most of the higher quality name brands like panasonic, sharp toshiba sony samsung, do a better job at lag and have a better response time. but youpay for the quality. you get what you pay for in hdtvs. so in other words i see noreason it would not be 8ms. but that doesnt mean it wont lag. good luck

How long would LCD HDTV's last in the market?

Q. I have bought an LCD HDTV last year and I'm getting worried if my TV's going to be "phased-out" since there has been many new releases of LED TV's and 3DTV's.

The LCD TV I bought was not exactly a new model, it was a bit old, (720p only, but not second-hand). I really hope that my purchase wasn't a waste, and that I should have bought a newer model instead...

A. SLEEPS WELL !
new models , new technology keeps coming out.....every month.. NO END.
if you worries about , don't buy any electronics items.
there is a LIFE TIME for LCD TV. usually about 60,000 hours. an QUALITY BRAND able to use for about 6 to 8 + years switch on 10 hours a day .
if you buy an LED TV . you will ask another same question as OLED TV should be in the market soon ! OR , all LED TV going to be " QUATTRON " technology as Sharp is the only maker for that ( releases 3 months ago ) .
if you buy an 3D TV, you worries about NEXT GENERATION NEW 3D releases in next 3 years.
there is NO NEW MODELS for TV. NEW MODELS is AS THIS MOMENT !!

Original Question

What are the differences between LCD HDTVs and Plasma HDTVs?

Q. What are their Pros and Cons?

A. LCD HDTVs:

LCD uses little pixels which contain liquid crystals inside of them. These liquid crystals alternate to block out certain spectrums of light, so that the viewer only sees the colour allowed to pass through the pixel. When a million pixels (720p TV) or 2 million pixels (1080p TV) are put together side-by-side, the viewer sees one complete picture.

Pros:
- Longer life span (theoretically)
- Great for brightly lit rooms
- Is now available at bigger sizes like 65"
- No burn-in
- Cheaper to repair
- Uses less electricity

Cons:
- Prone to dead pixels
- Visible artifacts due to slow refresh rates (generally 60Hz)
- Harder to see in brightly lit rooms
- Plastic Screen


Plasma HDTVs:

Plasma HDTVs uses pixels that contain gases like Neon or Argon. When an electric current comes into contact with these gases, the gases heat up and turn into the plasma (thus the name), and because they are so hot, they glow. The colour they emit varies according to the electric current. Because the gases can change colour almost instantly (unlike the LCD's liquid crystals which need to alternate), they have a really high refresh rate.

Pros:
- Fantastic for dark rooms
- Glass Screen
- Very accurate colours
- Deeper blacks
- Comes in very big sizes
- Barely any artifacts due to high refresh rate

Cons:
- Uses more electricity (it'll end up costing no more than 5 cents a month)
- Prone to burn-in (if you leave the sae image on your screen for a long time)
- Slowly dims until the gases completely lose their luminosity
- Very expensive to repair
- LCD is slowly beginning to dominate HDTV market


Hope I helped!

Original Question

What is the best LED HDTV?

Q.

A. LED TV Technology is a relatively new feature in the world of HD Television. They are thinner and have a better definition display than typical LCD TVs that use fluorescent lamps as a light source. The hype surrounding this new technology has resulted in Samsung selling approx one million LED TVs worldwide in 6 months.
However LED televisions are not technically that different from conventional the LCD TVs that have been with us for the last few years. In fact the term �LED TV� has been questioned as an LED TV is just a liquid-crystal display TV that uses light-emitting diodes to light the screen. Britain�s Advertising Standards Authority recently had problems with some marketing of LED TVs. The ASA said that the term LED TV is merely a variation of LCD TV and was misleading. As a result clarification relating to the use of the LEDs as the light source is now used when advertising LED Televisions.
Other television manufacturers have also come out and said that rather than LED TV it should be called an �LED-lit LCD TV� as this more accurately describes the use of LED technology used in these TV sets.
Up to now Sony, Samsung, Philips, JVC and LG have LED TVs on the market. The plus points with these new sets are that they have better picture quality, are thinner and are more eco-friendly mainly due to reduced energy consumption. On the negative side, as is to be expected with any new technology their price tag is still a bit on the hefty side.

The LED lighting in these new set is employed in one of two ways either as edge-lit LED TV or backlit LED TV. Edge-lit televisions as you have probably guessed have the LED lighting situated around the edge of the screen. Without the larger fluorescent lighting previously used at the back of the TV, LED models have been reduced in thickness with Sony producing an LED display less than 1cm thick and Samsungs sets measuring in at 3cm thick.

LED TV technology has made great advances with energy efficiency. Compared to their equivalent conventional LCD Television models, LED HDTVs use typically 40% less energy. And when compared to plasma TVs they can be 50% more efficient. The improved energy efficiency is due to the fact that LEDs require less power to illuminate the screen than fluorescent lights used in older LCD screens.

SONY BRAVIA XBR8 LCD flat panel HDTV. In addition to Full HD 1080p, this XBR-8 Series TV features TRILUMINOS RGB Dynamic LED backlight which produces breathtaking images with enhanced color purity that result in deep blacks and bright whites with startling depth and exceptional shadow detail. You'll also see the difference with Motionflow 120Hz PRO technology which enhances motion and delivers a smoother and clearer picture. Your 1080p HD images will look more breathtaking than ever thanks to the BRAVIA Engine 2 PRO fully digital video processor. This XBR-8 Series TV has DMex functionality which lets you expand the capabilities of your HDTV by adding optional BRAVIA Link modules (sold separately), plus it comes with plenty of connectivity options to connect your video sources.




Technical Details

* TRILUMINOS RGB Dynamic LED backlight produces incredible 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio in an LCD panel
* New: TV Guide IPG
* New: Enhanced (XMB) User Interface with Rich 3D Graphics
* New: DLNA Compliant
* New: Digital Media Port
* 16:9 Full HD 1080p Resolution Panel (1920 x 1080p)
* BRAVIA Engine fully digital video processor
* Advanced Contrast Enhancer circuit (ACE)
* 24p True Cinema capable
* Emmy-award winning Xross Media Bar user interface

* BRAVIA Sync capable
* S-Force Front Surround Voice Zoom
* Robust Connectivity with 4 HDMI inputs, 2 HD Component inputs, and a PC Input
* Piano Gloss Black with Onyx Speaker Grille
* Remote: RM-YD023




TRILUMINOS RGB Dynamic LED Backlight
TRILUMINOS RGB LED backlight technology aligns individual clusters of red, green, and blue LEDs to produce a significantly higher purity of primary colors than single white LED backlights, resulting in more accurate color reproduction. This clustered arrangement also allows the XBR8 to adjust the brightness of the backlight in units of small blocks, so it can display deep blacks in one portion of the screen and bright whites in another, producing images with enhanced depth, three-dimensionality and exceptionally accurate shadow detail.
Further, unlike conventional full-screen luminance control, the BRAVIA suppresses unneeded backlighting and, therefore, consumes less power than the conventional LED-backlit models. And, because it uses LEDs rather than the fluorescent tubes found in many HDTVs, Dynamic LED backlighting also promises exceptionally long life.

Should I get an LCD or LED-LCD TV?

Q. Hey everybody, I'm looking for a new TV in the 300-350 dollar price range (size between 24 and 39 inches). I'm not very tech-savvy, so I thought I'd ask for some input on this. Just looking at BestBuy's website I see that there are LED LCDs now (probably have been around for awhile, but like I said I don't really keep up with this stuff). I've looked around online, and it seems to be that the LEDs are easier on the power bill, which is a big plus for me since I'm a grad student. But they are a little more expensive (though if it will pay off in the utilities as time goes on, I don't mind paying a little more). I'm just wondering if someone can tell me about any major differences quality-wise? Does one have a crisper, cleaner picture than the other, brighter colors, deeper blacks, all that good stuff? If someone wouldn't mind telling me about their experiences and opinions I'd appreciate it! Thanks in advance.

A. Plasma has the best picture overall with deepest blacks and many specs, with great deals too. Also the best TV's of 2011 in top 5 are plasma on Cnet. But it looks like you want a small HDTV and plasma's smallest size is 42 inches. I recommend just go with LCD because LED is the same thing. Go to best buy and I think LG has 32 inch 720p LCD's for 300. I recommend 720p because at 32 inches you won't notice a benefit for 1080p. I have a 46 inch plasma at 1080p which looks amazing and even the 720p channels that come through satellite look amazing. LG is a good LCD brand and will save you $$.

Original Question

Which HDTV is Better?

Q. Sony - KDL40BX420 LCD (1080p, 60Hz) - $580
Samsung - PN43D490 Plasma (720p, 3D, 60Hz) - $540

Which of these is better. Im going to use it mostly for gaming and tv, with the occasional movie. 3D would be cool but its not that important. I will be sitting far enough away that 1080p wont really matter. I was looking at them at best buy and the plasma looked a little dark but it was pretty bright in the store. Also, if you have another TV to recommend let me know.
32" - 45"
$400 - $650 (maybe a little more depending on the tv)

A. The Song LCD. Plasma has lots of issues, like leaving a trail when something or someone moves on the Tv, which is typically called "ghosting". Also Plasma screens sometimes "burnout". Though, Plasma has a better color spectrum. But the best type is an LED.
Also, there are only so many games you can play in 3D and you have to buy glasses which I've seen for an extra $200.


Look up "squidoo best HDTVs of 2011" in google, and you'll find all the info you need.

I'm also looking at getting a new Tv, so I know a lot of good ones, but what's your exact price range. I know around $550 but is $580 the max? Also how many inches do you want? Add your price range and inch range and I'll add some recommendations.

Ok, so I'll just write the info for each tv. I would put the url since I'm still in the process of fixing my computer, so I have to use my iPod and PS3 to go on the internet.

what brand of lcd hdtv has the best repair history?

Q. I'm looking to buy a 52 inch LCD TV. What brand is most reliable? Also, what accessories do I need? Some people recommend the UPS instead of the expensive power surge protector.

A. Don't go by a single brand for your decision. You should look at specific models. Every brand makes stronger and weaker models. You want to get a good middle to high end model to best ensure you're getting the best parts.

All of the big name brands are going to be fairly comparable though reliability wise. Look to Panasonic (if you consider Plasma), Samsung, Sony, and LG. I think a set from any of those will serve you well from day of purchase until you're ready to buy again.

You likely want an HDMI cable, or two. Stick with no-name, generic brands. There are loads of consumer reports that have show the generic brands provide 100% equal quality as the big name, expensive options. Look to computer stores or online at like amazon.com, monoprice.com, bluejeanscable.com, etc. for good cheap cables. There's no need to spend more than $15 on a cable unless you're buying something of extreme length.

A UPS is handy to have sure, but we're not talking about needing to save documents here. UPS is good for a computer so the machine doesn't just turn off in a power outage. On your TV you just want to be worried about surge, so a good protector there is good enough really. Unless maybe the electricity in your area is really bad, in which case a UPS that also conditions the electricity might well be worth the investment.

Original Question

HDTV,plasma,LCD differentiate?

Q.

A. plasma and LCD are both HDTV

Plasma: This new technology utilizes a unique display panel that alleviates the need for a cathode ray type picture tube. At the present time this type of TV is somewhat expensive. A major benefit of the plasma display is that it has been sized to accommodate new HDTV 16:9 aspect ratio's and is similar in pixel resolution to a personal computer monitor, thus allowing drastically improved picture clarity.

LCD: Liquid crystal display television is, as indicated by its name, a television using LCD technology (generally TFT), as opposed to cathode ray or plasma for its visual output.

HDTV: Regular NTSC signals have 525 lines of resolution. HDTV has 1125 lines of resolution having over five times the video information than that of a conventional NTSC-type TV set. In spite of its obvious advantages, transmission requires extraordinary bandwidth of five times the capacity of a conventional TV signal. TV receivers are estimated to be 30% more expensive than today's most costly sets.

Plasma technology has certainly achieved quite high contrast ratios, a measure of the blackest black compared to the whitest white. Many plasma display manufacturers boast a contrast ratio of 3000:1 these days though our tests have not proven these numbers out. Panasonic has long been the leader in plasma black levels and we measure contrast of a 42" HD Panasonic plasma at about ANSI 1450:1 - still impressive. Plasma displays achieve such impressive black levels by using internal algorithms to block the power to particular pixels in order to render a pixel "dark" or black. While this can limit a plasma television's gray scaling, it does produce exceptionally black blacks - depending on the manufactured plasma display element (i.e. glass). A plasma TV uses the most power when it is producing full white. As a result, some 2nd tier manufactured brands of plasma TVs have an audible buzz or whining sound when displaying white or very light images.

LCD (liquid crystal diode) displays, by contrast, utilize electric charges to twist and untwist liquid crystals, which causes them to block light and, hence, emit blacks. The higher the voltage passing through the liquid crystals in a given pixel, the more fully those crystals untwist and effectively block light - all of which makes these pixels darker. As opposed to plasma, LCD TVs use the most power when displaying a very dark or black image. This is a difficult process, and despite recent improvements in LCD black levels, only the best LCD televisions (like those produced by Sharp and Sony) have managed to topple the 1000:1 contrast ratio barrier. Recent improvements have brought LCD displays up to the level of plasma. The one continual drawback here for LCD is off axis viewing, when black levels consistently drop.

Sony Bravia LCD HDTV 1080p a good choice?

Q. I recently bought this Tv and i love it but i heard Plasmas are better. Whats the difference? I mainly use it for gaming but was this a good choice over a Plasma?

A. Of course it's a great TV...it's a Sony! We have a KDL55EX710 LED backlit LCD and my son plays his PS3 games without a hitch. The main gripe I have with plasmas is that they suffer from burn in, just like CRT's did back in the 70's with the Pong video game. I've noticed this especially if you watch 4:3 format programs with the vertical black bars...they get burned in. You won't have this with an LCD display. Plus, LCD runs much cooler and uses less energy than plasma, and will inherently last longer.

Original Question

What is the difference between an LCD and LED HDTV?

Q.

A. There are many technologies emerging in display devices like TVs. Every technology excels in particular feature of display and has particular method of display. Different technologies used in TVs are:

LCD TV:
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) televisions are thinner and lighter and provide much sharper and clearer picture than CRTs of similar size. They are ideally used for cell phone displays, computer monitors, and to view still images.
· LCD TVs have a flat screen so there will be no picture distortion and don't have screen "burn in" like curved tube TVs.
· In general, LCD viewing angle is 175 degrees. The picture can be viewed 87 degrees from each side.
· LCD TVs are very economical to use and screens less than 35 are fairly inexpensive.
· LCD TVs are backlit and blocks outside light. So, they are suitable for natural lighting situations.
· Most LCD TVs have a half lifespan (50% of original brightness) of over 30,000 hours (16 years of viewing at 6 hours per day).
LCD sizes generally range from 13 to 65 but some manufacturer will offer up to 100 sizes.

Plasma TV:
A Plasma Display Panel (PDP) is a flat panel display used in large TV displays. They have better and accurate color generation than LCDs, and with far display, wider viewing angles, and do not experience degradation at high angles compared to LCD. Plasma displays are ideal for viewing motion video in large displays.

· Plasma screen sizes generally ranges from 32 to 84 but some offer screen sizes up to 100.
· Plasma pixel, technology provides a brighter picture with more contrast between the blacks and whites than standard TV.
· In general, plasma TVs viewing angle is 160 to 180 degrees and picture can be viewed from any angle.
· On an average, Plasma TVs have a half lifespan (50% of brightness) of 50,000 to 70,000 hours (20 years of viewing 6 hours a day to 50,000 hours).
Some plasma TVs are provided with upgradeable video cards that helps to match with future technology.

HDTV:
HDTV or High-Definition Television is a digital television broadcasting system offering a higher resolution compared to regular television systems. HDTV is digitally broadcast unlike earlier analog broadcasting, because digital television (DTV) signals require reduced bandwidth because of digital video compression.

HDTV will not have standard TV problems, like low quality sharpness, troubles with brightness or contrast, spots, other visual, or audio imperfections, problems like double images (ghosting), and weak signals. HD television provides clearer pictures with excellent sound quality, a wider viewing screen and up-to-date scanning. HDTV will provide more and superior channels provided by regular satellite or cable television with theater system experience.

LED TV:
LED (Light Emitting Diode) TV is an LCD TV that uses LEDs for back lighting, instead of using the fluorescent lights (as it creates more black spots). They are ideally used for low-energy indicators, as substitutes for traditional light sources in general lighting and automotive lighting.
· LED TV currently costs more than a standard LCD or plasma TV.
· LED TV has got great looks and very easy to Install.
· Edge-lit LED television will consume 30-40% of less power than LCD or plasma TV. But backlit LEDs will consume more power.
· Brighter picture can be viewed with LED television compared to a standard LCD TV.
· LED TV that is backlit, with local dimming and RGB LEDs, will have an enhanced picture and better contrast ratio and colour accuracy compared to standard LCD TV.
It has a long lasting life and also eco friendly.

OLED TVs:
OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TVs depend on light emitting polymer technology. Its features including,
· In OLED TVs, there is no need for backlights or extra heaters or coolers, so there is less power consumption.
· As OLED materials has the capacity to support full spectrum of visible light, so there will be higher contrast and it has high-speed refresh rates.
· OLEDs are much faster than LCDs. Fast motion and quick eye movement pictures are more realistic. And OLED TVs will make virtual images to look realistic and can be viewed easily for longer periods.
· It has larger viewing angle and for near-eye applications, it provides more pleasant viewing without distortion.
One disadvantage with OLED TVs is the limited lifespan of the organic materials used in its manufacturing. In addition, blue light degrades quickly with a lifespan of 14,000 hours (when used 8 hours per day for five years) on flat-panel displays.

Before purchasing a television, know the difference between each technology and purchase the one, which has your desired features and suits your budget.

Which HDTV is Better?

Q. Sony - KDL40BX420 LCD (1080p, 60Hz) - $580
Samsung - PN43D490 Plasma (720p, 3D, 60Hz) - $540

Which of these is better. Im going to use it mostly for gaming and tv, with the occasional movie. 3D would be cool but its not that important. I will be sitting far enough away that 1080p wont really matter. I was looking at them at best buy and the plasma looked a little dark but it was pretty bright in the store. Also, if you have another TV to recommend let me know.
32" - 45"
$400 - $650 (maybe a little more depending on the tv)

A. The Song LCD. Plasma has lots of issues, like leaving a trail when something or someone moves on the Tv, which is typically called "ghosting". Also Plasma screens sometimes "burnout". Though, Plasma has a better color spectrum. But the best type is an LED.
Also, there are only so many games you can play in 3D and you have to buy glasses which I've seen for an extra $200.


Look up "squidoo best HDTVs of 2011" in google, and you'll find all the info you need.

I'm also looking at getting a new Tv, so I know a lot of good ones, but what's your exact price range. I know around $550 but is $580 the max? Also how many inches do you want? Add your price range and inch range and I'll add some recommendations.

Ok, so I'll just write the info for each tv. I would put the url since I'm still in the process of fixing my computer, so I have to use my iPod and PS3 to go on the internet.

Original Question

What to get, Plasma or LCD?

Q. Not sure what to purchase, new 3D Plasma HDTV or a 3D LED LCD HDTV?

A. Whether to get a plasma or led based lcd depends on your picture quality demands, budget, power requirements and design requirements.

Picture Quality: Plasma generates a picture by lighting a phosphor, where lcd's filter white light with a membrane. This gives plasma the edge in picture quality because the pixels generate the colors themselves. Also 3d is best on a plasma, since 3d cuts refresh rate by 50%.

LCD's often suffer from flash-lighting or clouding and make blacks look washed out. This is most noticeable on edge lit lcd's where the lights are in the corner of the screen. If you prefer LED for it's brightness and crispness you should definitely try to go for a local dimming LED tv. These tv's put the leds at the back of the screen and are able to shut off or dim in parts of the screen that are darker. These are a bit more expensive because they have 1300 leds opposed to 400 on edge lit tv's, but LG offers nice tv's that are based on local dimming that are affordable.

Viewing angle is best on plasma, edge lit led has horrible viewing angles, local dimming led's are better ( definitely with IPS panels ) but plasma wins here.

With regards to motion handling, plasma is still the best. LCD's got better and offer different Hz's to make the picture look smoother. (usually 120 or 240hz, higher uses a scanning backlight) Plasma uses a 600hz subfield drive system.

Plasmacells generate better colors in my opinion, but since they aren't able to completely shut off they will still leave a bit of a glow. Blacks are generally better than on lcd tv's, but there are local dimming sets that are actually beating plasma's now in terms of black level(~0.02ftl opposed to ~0.04ftl on newest plasma's). Plasma's are always better in shadow detail though because they offer per pixel control, where as a local dimming led has to cut the screen in small zones creating some spillover of light.

Budget: Plasma's offer more bang for the buck than led tv's, definately with regards to local dimming. A good 50" plasma tv is 1000-1500 dollars. A local dimming set is 1500-2000$. Edge lit lcd's generally suck. (Except samsung's top line with micro dimming plus) In the lower price segment you have more options with LED sets than in plasma, and cheap plasma's are often only 720p sets (1024x768 or 1366x768 resolution).

Power: Led tv's consume less power. Edge lit tv's use the least power.(around 100W) Then local dimming.(100-150W) Then plasma(250W average, a plasma uses less power on a dark screen). A plasma will cost you 30$ a year more on power on average.

Design: LED tv's generally look thinner and have better design. Plasma's got better though, and Samsung has introduced plasma's with an inch thinner bezel now for 2011.



I hope with this information you can make the right choice for you. If picture quality is the most important I personally prefer plasma but local dimming led's are also very good and some people prefer them. If powerconsumption or design is leading LED is the way to go. 2 recommended sets coming out around april: LG's LW7700 series for led based lcd or the Samsung D6500 plasma. They are both 3d enabled sets with active shutter glasses.

Vizio 55 inch LED HDTV Model: VF551XVT2A - are they any good?

Q. One of these caught my eye at a store. I wondering if anyone else has one and what did they think of it after they used it for a while.


http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?dest=5&item=446956&pCatg=14489

A. Go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on tvs along with the pro and con of Plasma, LCD and LED tvs. You will notice that Panasonic has a Plasma tv recommended in each of the price category of entry level to the high end. While Sony, Samsung and Toshiba does not (December issue). Other brands like LG, Sharp, Sanyo and Vizio did not even get mentioned. Plasma is still considered to have the best picture quality of all tvs in the market today. Vizio is made in China and made of cheap parts. If you read yahoo questions, you will notice that 95% of tv problems are from LCD/LED tvs and 95% are from off brands. The LCD and LED screens are very sensitive and can easily be damaged. Hope this will help you out.

whats so great about lcd-led hd tv's?

Q.

A. LED with HDTV or Blu-ray has unbelievable clarity. I've got a 55 inch one from LG. Best TV I've ever owned, by miles.

The liquid crystal in each picture is actually the same, but the back lighting and dimming is noticeably superior in the LED. Because of the superior lighting LED TV's also have larger viewing angles than LCD without seeing contrast degradation.

LED TV's are also smaller and lighter, and last longer than LCD.

TV Experts, PLEASE HELP!... LCD/LED HDTV?!?

Q. Ok planning on getting a TV, stuck between:

LG 47'' :
LG47LH90

ORRRR

SHARP AQUOS 46''
LC46LE700UN


Please take a look and tell me which is better!!

ALso, what is that LED LCD crap? is it better?!

A. LCD and LED are actually two different types of TV's. LED usually has better color quality and lighting, as well as viewing angle, but they run quite expensive.

After reviewing the two HDTV's you've listed, the LG 47" is a sure winner and I would highly recommend it. The specifications are better and will give you a better picture. It has a great design as well, which is great with HDTV's.

EDIT: For the guy below me, pardon my error. I misread something I suppose. I did research again, and LED TV's do in fact have better power consumption.

A. The Final Word on HDTV by J.-

If you enjoy throwing $6400 out of the window of your car, then by all means, buy the plasma tv. If youre looking for a decent tv that will last your for a very long time, go with the LCD. While, plasma screen tvs do have a slightly better picture quality than LCDs, their(plasma) lifespans are only about 7-8 years, maximum. Most only last 5-6 years. Some people will try to bullsh** you by saying "Well, they havent been out for that long, how would you know." Well, I know, and so do the people that manufacture them, and so do the people that own them. Another point that you can make is the PS2/other game systems problem, on a plasma tv, if you leave a game system on for an extended period of time, images will become burned into the plasma screen. LCDs, while bulkier, do not have these problems. To me, people that own plasma screen tvs are just like the idiots who own hybrid cars, the only reason they buy them is so that they brag about it to their friends, in the event that the yuppie a-holes even have any. To be simple about it, if want to buy a good Hi-Def tv without spending a small fortune go with the LCD. If you have a couple of extra bucks to spend, I'd recommend DLP, but thats another story.

Now thats out of the way, if youre absolutely hell-bent on getting LCD screen then you have to go with Sony, no questions asked. I think that the vega gives you the biggest bang for your buck, but check it out, at this point in time theres not a huge cost difference between models, general speaking. In any event you want to make sure that you get a Sony. Next, having all of the HD monitors in the world won't do you a damn bit of good unless you have HDTV service. Below are your options:
Cable TV: Absolutely sucks. High cost, crappy picture quality and rather small amount of HD programming even available. Upside: Its HDTV for dummies, your ignorance is your bliss.

DirecTV: Excellent picture and quality at a decent price, however even DirecTV doesnt have a whole of programming in the way of HDTV. Also, I'm not a big fan of their HD technology, but thats just me talking, I'm kind of, well actually, very picky when it comes to TV.

Dish Network: At this point in time, Dish is probably the primo way to go for HDTV. They have excellent receivers/equipment at a fairly modest cost but more importantly they have more HD programming available than any one else on the Planet Earth. I shouldnt be saying this, given the fact that my cousin owns a DirecTV franchise, but what the hell do you care?

These are all options to mull over, but don't be an idiot when it comes to spending money on your TV setup. I promise, if you follow my advise you'll be more than happy.

Do I need to buy HDMI cables if I buy a LCD HDTV?

Q. I am planning on getting a Samsung 40" 1080p, the model is LN40B640. But I am wondering if I need HDMI cables. They are very expensive, well the Monster brand which start at over $60. I am not familiar with HDMI, or HD electronics in general. I only plan on connecting a Xbox 360 to the tv, and a Blu Ray player eventually. No home theater system. Any help with what HDMI is for and which are good for the money will be very much appreciated. Thanks.

A. Okay here comes your perfect answer. So you know i am very knowledgeable about everything there is to know about LCD, Plasma, PS3, Xbox, Bluray, surround sound ect. so take what im telling you as fact. I have literaly set up DOZENS of surround sound lcd bluray ps3 xbox sytems in peoples houses and know how they work from top to bottom.

Answer: not necissarily.

HDMI cables are designed to handle all current forms of HD signal including 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p. But they also handle "HD Audio" or true surround sound signal which includes DTS, Dolby prologic, Dolby Digital 5.1 and 7.1 audio. The nice thing about HDMI is its all in one cable.

Your xbox (tho i am not conclusively sure about the elite) comes with cables to send video and audio signal to your TV. You have your STANDARD DEFINITION CALBES witch is the yellow (video in 480i) cable, aswell as a red and white which designate left and right channel stereo only audio. this is not HD. But they also, on the same wire, come with "COMPONENT VIDEO" THIS IS THE SAME EXACT THING AS AN HDMI CABLE BUT IN THREE WIRES!. Component has a green, blue, and red cable splitting a video signal into 3 specific forms, which are then combined in the tv as HD signal. these cables will handle 1080p.

If you use component you will still have to use the red and the white for your audio. you will NOT use the yellow anymore.

The difference between component and HDMI is wire control (less wires) if you get into deep specifics HDMI can also be used for one device to control another. But in your case its not, nor would you have a need to do so. Also as i said HDMI carries HD audio, the white and red sterio wires do not, but that does not matter in your case for you do not have a surround sound speaker system able to decode and designate speaker channels for surround sound audio.

Advice: You could use either, i use HDMI
Go to newegg.com and buy your HDMI cable from there for $10 or less
Never buy a cable less than 6' (foot) long for you WILL NOT have enough. trust me
You should be able to find the cable you need for about $6
After you hook every thing up and see a picture on the TV you are STILL NOT GETTING HD PICTURE
You have to tell your xbox to send 1080p to your television only!!!!!
Go to system settings in your xbox, then video settings and set the resolution to 1080p
to make sure that is is working correctly, press display, or info on your TV'S! remote, and it will tell you what signal is being supplied to the TV (720p, 1080i 0r 1080p)
you also have to tell the xbox what cables you wish to run signal through, but you should come to that step anyways while in video settings.
ALSO EXTREMELY IMPORTANT, I BELIEVE XBOX REQUIRES A SPECIAL CABLE DESIGNED FOR THE THE XBOX ONLY THAT HAS HDMI ON ONE END (FOR THE TV) AND THE XBOX HOOKUP AT THE OTHER TO HOOK TO YOUR XBOX. THERE IS ALSO A SWITCH ON THE XBOX CABLE ITSELF THAT SAYS HDTV WHICH NEEDS TO BE SWITCHED ON IF USING 'COMPONENT HOOKUP RED, GREEN, BLUE CABLES) for HD picture

I have xbox ps3, HD DVD, 42" flat LCD, 1,800 watt surround sound 7.1 with three subwoofers and 5 extra speakers wired into it. It all runs perfectly and amazingly, and shakes the earth. I use component for my xbox, and HDMI for my ps3 which has a blu-ray built in. Best advice, get a ps3, so much better that xbox, and you cant beet the price now adays.

SUPER TIP!!!!! : go to half.com for all bluray movies, games, and even consoles (game systems) FRACTION OF THE PRICE! NEW!!!! or slightly used (all used games ive gotten are in FLAWLESS CONDITION! and i have 20 all from that site)

most of the answers here are partially right, or wrong. i promise you, this is totally correct. Best Buy guys call me when they have a problem. GOOD LUCK friend, you will love it. Enjoy, and have a friend with you in you are unsure on how to do everything, refer to this as a guide.

Best,
Riddick-

Which LCD HDTV should I buy?

Q. I'm trying to decide between this HDTV

http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Element-26-LCD-HDTV-FLX-2610/sem/rpsm/oid/175548/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do#tabs

and....

http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11220721&whse=BC&topnav=&browse=&lang=en-US

which do you think is a better buy?

A. I'd go with the ViewSonic at Costco, but only because of Costco's service and extended warranty. They are both "third tier" (bottom of the barrel) LCDs.
While it's tough on the budget, try to stick with a reliable, quality name brand like Panasonic, Toshiba, or Hitachi. While Sony is the top name in LCD, it's out of your price range, I'd guess. Generally, you'll find the best prices by a few dollars on the Toshiba. However, look at the Panasonic TC-26LX70 LCD HDTV now on sale at Circuit City for $749. Quality set at a good price. Stay away from all "no names" like Element, Ilo, Polaroid, Maxent, Vizio. and Olevia, as well as Philips/Magnavox and you will be happier!

LCD HDTV Question about 1080p?

Q. Ok I plan on buying a LCD HDTV with 1080p. When I buy any 1080p TV will it support every other resolution like 720p/1080i/480 even tho its 1080p?
I have a PS3 for Blu ray forgot to add that

A. Great question.

Yes, your HDTV will display any lower resolution.

The Philips brand includes a feature called Pixel Plus that automatically upconverts lower resolution to higher resolution.

480i to 480p, 480p to 1080i, 720p to 1080p.

It won't upconvert standard definition to pixelated 1080p but it will ensure you get the best possible picture based on the sourc material.

Good luck

The new LCD HDTV's???

Q. SO do the new LCD TV's with Auto Motion Plus look like Plasmas or are Plasmas still better?
AND how long do i hae to to leave a still image for my Plasma to Burn-In (in hours please or days)
THANK YOU

A. LCD of any kind is inherently flawed in motion playback. The manufacturers have come out with advanced features to help reduce the problem. Things like 120Hz/240Hz refresh rates and what you mention. These things help a lot, but they do not solve the problem entirely. Plasma is near instantaneous response time right out of the box; its flawless in motion playback.

CCFL LCDs (the majority) have muted colors, grey blacks, and average contrast. Manufacturers have looked to solve this issue with the LED LCD. This helps the matter in a huge way. But be ready to pay $$$. Plasma has vivid colors, true blacks, deep contrast right out of the box, and is still better than LED LCD.

If you get a Plasma just condition it. For the first 20-50 hours don't play video games. For the first 100-200 hours keep the brightness and contrast cranked way down. Then optimize and enjoy. And buy a Panasonic Plasma and it comes with additional anti-image retention features, above and beyond the advances in the technology.

Burn-in that actually might occur will vary from image to image. There is no answer to that. But typically you can get away with several hours without any big issue (so like logos from TV stations and such, not a big deal, even when watching a movie). But I wouldn't leave a video game on pause for an extended period of time. If you need to pause it just shut off the TV screen (but leave the console on). Not really hard to do.

A. yes it is true that lcd's can have motion blur due to low frequency refresh rate, but if you are just an average gamer you wont notice it unless you really look in detail, many modern lcd tv's have built in features that allow you to reduce the motion blur.

but yes that tv will be fine for you if you are just a standard gamer.

Will the release of oled and 4k drop the price of regular tvs?

Q. hello, i was wondering if anyone in the tv sales or home theatre communities thought that with the release of oled (organic light emiting diode) or 4k resolution tvs sometime in 2013, that the price of tvs that aren't oled or 4k will drop much like standard definition tvs dropped in price when high def came out? In case your wondering im looking at the price of a Panasonic Viera Tcp50st30. THANK YOU

A. Yes the prices will go down, but not all of a sudden. Like all other electronics, the prices are constantly going down. Even when HDTVs came out, the prices on standard television didn't dropped overnight. Also, OLEDs TVs and 4k TVs are still a novelty, with only very pricey model are available to the general public. It will take 2-3 years to become mainstream and to challenge the plasma/lcd/led prices.

This is especially true if you want to buy a very specific model, like your case. If you are willing to wait that model would be when the new models will come out (so the stores need to sell their old stock). This is usually in the February-April time frame.

What Tv should i buy?

Q. Hi I am looking to buy a new tv, but I am having some problems. I want to buy the panasonic vt60 for the colors, motion, and black levels. The only thing keeping me from buying it is the line bleed, fan noise, and green dithering that show up in the picture where it isn't completely dark. I bought the panasonic gt50 last year and loved it but it had the problems I listed. The green dithering would have been acceptable if it couldn't have been seen from a normal viewing distance while in THX mode. Anyways now i am considering led TVs and was wondering what 2013 led tv can best compete with plasma? Right now I am considering the Sony 900a model. Is there a better 1080p Led tv than the sony?

A. The Samsung 8000 series would be a much better tv than the Sony. Pesonally, I have nevver owned a Sony product that have last more than 3 years. Purchased the first DVD players model 7000 and the 7700 both are the price of $1,100 each and the first HDTV 34" CRT and they all did not last more than e years. The new Panasonic ZT series Plasma tv is reviewed by Home Theater Magazine. This is compared to the old Pioneer Elite KURO tv. I would still recommend the Panasonic. I do use 4 Panasonic Plasma tv along with 3 LCD tv and never had one issue. Hope this will help you out.

Q. College friends are saying to change my LCD and instead of that, I should buy LED. What can be the solution dear?

A. Get plasma, it destroys LED/LCD in picture quality easily and are cheaper. You can get a GT25 or ST30 3d HD panasonic plasma at 42 inches for 1000 bucks and make your friends jealous as hell.

Look at Cnet's reviews Google best 3DTV or HDTV of 2011 and the top 5 are plasma's. Maybe 1 LED is in 6th place but its 3 grand.

samsung hdtv un46C, un46D, or UN46E?

Q. What's the difference between the C, D, and E? All I want is sick picture and sound. I don't care for extra features this TV will simply be used to play videogames and watch a movie every now and then

A. A quick explanation of the Samsung serial numbers:

Part 1, the display technology: UN = LED, LN = LCD, PN = plasma
Part 2, the size: easy to recognize, it's 46-inch
Part 3, the series: D6000, ES8000, C7000, loads of variations. The C series are from 2010, D is from 2011, E(S) is from 2012. The number indicates the specs/features.

A few examples: UN46Cxxxx is a 46-inch LED screen from 2010, a PN55Dxxxx is a 55-inch plasma from 2011. A UN55D7000 has the same features as a UN46D7000, just a bigger screen.

Over the last years, image quality improved but not as fast as new fancy features were added. If you don't need gesture control, internet access, smart TV features and apps, a HDTV from 2010 would be perfectly fine, the irony is that most of them are more expensive now that the new 2012 ones. The UN46C6500 for example costs about $1.4k, the UN46ES6500 slightly more than $1k.

Bottom line: My recommendation would be the UN46EH6000. No 3D, no unneeded features, but 240Hz refresh rate, decent image quality, 2x HDMI, 1x USB, Dolby Digital Plus/Dolby Pulse, barely more than $800 for a perfect "basic" HDTV. Sick sound? All modern flatscreen HDTVs have built-in 10-20 watt speakers. That's far from perfect, no matter what manufacturer you look at, these thin little speakers can't do wonders. Some sort of home theatre kit is definitely recommended for all audiophiles.
