Q. I'm looking to buy an HDTV by a name brand (Sony, LG, Panasonic, Samsung) around 50-55" for under a grand. Can anybody tell me who makes the best budget TV's?
so i'm leaning toward a panasonic and i found these two deals i'm considering.
1) Panasonic - VIERA / 50" Class / 1080p / 600Hz / Plasma HDTV
Model: TC-P50G20
about $1200 from bestbuy
2)Panasonic Viera 54" Widescreen 1080p Plasma HDTV - 2,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio
Model: TC-P54S2
about $970 from buy.com
it appears that the only major pluses with #2 are the size and price. it's lacking in many of the extra features (internet capability, USB ports, higher contrast ratio, etc.)
do you think it makes more sense to spend an extra 240 bucks for the better quality tv that's a couple inches smaller?

A. You'll have a better chance of maintaining that price with plasma than with LCD/LED. Here are the top rated 50 inch plasma sets from Consumer Reports, in order:
1. LG Infinia 50PK750 suggested price $1050
2. Samsung PN50C6500 $1200
3. LG 50PK540 $780
4. Panasonic Viera TC-50U2 $800
Here are the rankings among LCD/LED sets, and I've eliminated those that are way beyond $1000:
6. Sanyo DP52440 $1000
7. Samsung LN52C530 $1170
9. Hitachi Ultravision L555604 $1100
Note that the above LCDs are in the "budget" category, as they have the fluorescent backlight system, not LEDs.

Per your Additional Details: as for your two cited choices, you'll have to decide whether those special functions are worth the added cost. How important is that to you?
Another observation: Buy.com is an on-line seller, right? To each their own, but my choice is to only buy a TV from a local walk-in store, so that I can easily and promptly take it back for a refund when I open the box and the TV is unsatisfactory for some reason. (It's happened.) That also avoids shipping damage. On-line sellers, especially Amazon, are ordinarily good about taking care of such problems, but it involves time, bother, reshipping hassle, and maybe expense.

LCD HDTV on Black Friday?
Q. My husband and I plan on waiting outside of Walmart on Black Friday to get a TV. We're looking for something more than 50 inches and would prefer samsung or visio based on what people have told us. After reading plenty of articles on Black Friday, there aren't very many TVs over 50 inches listed for the deals. I found an element 55" LCD HDTV for $799 and am wondering what you have heard about element? Should we get it or spend a little more on a better brand. Do you think the better brands of TVs over 50" will be priced under $1000 on Black Friday?
We want to try and get a blu-ray player or home theater system that day too and are trying to figure out how much we need to have saved by then. thanks
thanks but I don't have a credit card (and am not using debit card online) so that won't work.
