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.

Samsung LCD or LED 55"?

Q. LCD:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung+-+55%22+Class+/+1080p+/+120Hz+/+LCD+HDTV/9293613.p?id=1218076081277&skuId=9293613&st=LN55B650&cp=1&lp=1

LED:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung+-+55%22+Class+/+1080p+/+120Hz+/+LED-LCD+HDTV/9234303.p?id=1218068137461&skuId=9234303&st=samsung%20led&cp=1&lp=4

Which one should I get? I'm unsure right now. I can get the LCD for $1599 or the LED for $2099.

Is LED really worth $500 more than LCD? All I know is that LED has a 3mil:1 contrast while LCD only has 100k:1. Other than that, I find them very similar towards each other in functions. Many people say the LED has a perfect picture quality. LCD is really good also, but not as good as LED. Will I really tell the difference?

A. LED provides blacker blacks and therefore a much higher contrast ratio. I would go to the store and look at the sets side by side and see if I thought the difference is noticeable enough to shell out the extra $500.

LED technology is "supposed" to approach the contrast of plasma sets, and supposedly does look better enough to pay the extra bucks, but that's according to the hype from the manufacturers. My theory is that if you can't SEE the difference, why pay for it. It's like asking advice on audio equipment from an audiophile!

Go look for yourself.

Original Question

which is better: HDTV,plasma, LED or LCD?

Q. please give reasons why either is better

A. LCD is best I think. Thats what I got. 54 in.

Why? well, We were going to get a 55 in led, because they look amazing. But after we saw a demonstration, the colors are not real at all, and everything looks photoshoped, and animated. Well, as some might like that, I don't. I'd like to see things the way they are. The led colors arent true, and if you don't need an extremely thin tv, then lcd is perfect.

Plasma has glare where lcd doesn't. In plasma, if you leave one image on for too long, you may burn in the picture into your screen, which won't go away.

I guess people like different things, I chose LCD, and I love it. Still can't get enough of the great 54in quality from the latest Sony Bravia.

hope I answered your question.

Have a good day ; )

What is the Samsung Touch of Color on the LCD TVs?

Q. I have the Samsung LN55C630 Series 6 55" Class ToC LCD 1080P HDTV but I don't notice the touch of color working. I read on a forum that it needs more light to work so I turned on more light but I still don't see it. Does it work only with sunlight reflections and is the Touch of Color a actual light or LED or just a special built in reflector?

A. "Touch of Color" just means that the TV has a reddish tinge on the unit. It is not a back-light, it is simply the color of the unit. And the red part is only about a quarter inch thick at the bottom of the unit just under the screen.

You will only notice it if light it directly on it, to see it just point a flashlight directly at the bottom of the unit. Take a look at this Tv http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31mvqA0KEUL.jpg It's a different model but its the same idea, there is a reddish tinge of color at the bottom of the unit.

What computer video card do i need to run 3D on Samsung 3D HDTV 240hz?

Q. I am getting a new 55" Samsung 3D HDTV 240hz 1080p LCD-LED television very soon.

My question is what video card for my computer am I going to need to run 3D games on that TV?

The video card I am using now is a ATI Radeon HD 4850
The price needs to be within $100-$400 USD

A. Details that would help would be what operating system that you plan to run. And what other specs you have for the system that you plan on using. I see that you are currently using an ATI card, so I would assume that you would want to have an ATI replacement card. I will also assume that you have enough room around your PCI slot to fit a dual slot card. Also power supply specs come in to play as well, especially where graphics are concerned. You want 600watt supply at the bare minimum. I would strongly suggest over 800watts and above to give you room to grow later.

Now you say you plan on running 3D games. That kinda narrows your list of possible choices to the more expensive end of the spectrum. Being able to play them and being able to play them well are two different things as I'm sure you know :P.

Requirements for HD3D Be sure to check that your TV is supported on this list. Also listed are the graphics cards that I recommended below. Go for the best that you can afford.
http://www.amd.com/us/products/technologies/amd-hd3d/Pages/supported-hardware.aspx

An important note from that list is that you will also have to get additional hardware. (3D glasses and such). I couldn't find any on AMD's website. Researching further into it, it appears that AMD delegates the task of 3D hardware sourcing and compatibility to third party manufacturers. The other options force you to purchase a specific monitor and glasses.

Choices:

Radeon HD 5970 (Hemlock) 2GB $499
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102887
A bit over your price range, but well worth it. Fastest card out at the moment

Then right beneath that you have the Radeon HD 5870

Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 2GB $369
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102888

I chose that specific 5870 because of the memory. It's a 2GB card, beware of the prices there. Make sure that you are paying for the memory and not for an over clocked GPU on a 1GB card. Don't settle for less than 2GB. And don't pay for an overclocked card, any overclock that you would get is marginal and could be done for free yourself if you so choose.

Comparison chart of the two so you can see the differences and decide for yourself:
http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/162?vs=165

To stay in your price range, you would want to stay with the 5870 though.

Now with all this said... I must mention that standard refresh rate for 3D is currently 120Hz and not 240Hz.
http://www.lcdtvbuyingguide.com/lcdtv/120hz-240hz-60hz.html -- Some reading on the subject.

Overall, I'd say those two cards are your choices. And congrats on the new TV. But stick with the 2D games for now, as for 3D technology, ATI doesn't seem to be on the ball.

How do you fix burn in on LCD/LED TV?

Q. My 55' HDTV has some very light shadows in the shape of boxes (most likely from Netflix or video games sitting too long), its usually on a white or black screen is when it really stands out but its there all the time, it isn't bad but it bugs me and this isn't a cheap TV, its both LED/LCD, I came across a video on YouTube of the different color lines going through like a slide show for 2 hours and says it can fix burn in, would this work and if not what can I do?

A. My panasonic 65 has an issue when not watching high def that sound similar. when watching high def, we can see the lines from the gray bar. My tv has a scrolling bar that I let run for about 3 minutes and it takes the image away. Maybe look to see if your tv does too.

How wide is a 55" flat screen tv?

Q. Also, who makes the best LED LCD? I've heard Samsung is good with the exception of the sound quality.

A. Samsung Series 9 or Series LED
Sony XBR 8 or XBR 10
LG LH90 or SL90

All of those series of LCDs rank very well. I think you'd be in good shape with any of them. If you are not happy with the Samsung sound quality, check out the Sony or LG models and see if either of those are up to your satisfaction.

You could also check out Sharp. I think they do make an LED LCD. I just can't recall the series off the top of my head.

As for the TV size, a little grade school pythagarous can solve that...

TV diagonal is 55". HDTV is a ratio of 16:9.

(16x)^2 + (9x)^2 = 55^2
256x^2 + 81x^2 = 55^2
337x^2 = 55^2
18.357x = 55
x = 2.996

16 x 2.996 = 47.936
9 x 2.996 = 26.964

So the 55" HDTV would measure basically 48" x 27".

best 52 or 55 inch tv for sports in regular definition?

Q. I have a 42 inch LG lcd tv and sports that arent in HD especially hockey look terrible.I am looking for the a 52 or 55 inch that doesnt look terrible when watching sports in regular def.Im not sure if LCD or LED-LCD is better.

A. LED will provide you better picture quality than LCD, deeper black.
Good brand and model that I would recommend is Samsung UN55C6500 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FTVs-Televisions-Audio-Video%2Fb%3Fie%3DUTF8%26node%3D979929011%26ref_%3Dsv_e_3&tag=computer0bd-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957

or another good choice if you want for sport, not for gaming is Plasma. Plasma will provide you faster response, smoother motion which good for action sports. Panasonic or Samsung are good brand to get.

Is the 2 Year Protection Plan from Best Buy a ripoff?

Q. Just recently bought a Dynex led hdtv for my girlfriend's birthday. But i heard that dynex tvs aren't reliable and are more prone to breaking. Should I go back to the store and get a 2 year protection plan for it? I don't have enough money to buy a more expensive tv so that's not an option for me.

A. All three answers are way off base. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dynex%26%23153%3B+-+55%22+Class+/+LCD+/+1080p+/+120Hz+/+HDTV/1437844.p?id=1218259335717&skuId=1437844 to start. Look at the reviews.

Idiots? Go ahead and spend the extra money to get a name brand say an extra $500. And? Extended warranty? Oh hell yes. On any brand not just because it's a Dynex. A 32" CRT set was $700-$1200.

What is the Samsung Touch of Color on the LCD TVs?

Q. I have the Samsung LN55C630 Series 6 55" Class ToC LCD 1080P HDTV but I don't notice the touch of color working. I read on a forum that it needs more light to work so I turned on more light but I still don't see it. Does it work only with sunlight reflections and is the Touch of Color a actual light or LED or just a special built in reflector?

A. "Touch of Color" just means that the TV has a reddish tinge on the unit. It is not a back-light, it is simply the color of the unit. And the red part is only about a quarter inch thick at the bottom of the unit just under the screen.

You will only notice it if light it directly on it, to see it just point a flashlight directly at the bottom of the unit. Take a look at this Tv http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31mvqA0KEUL.jpg It's a different model but its the same idea, there is a reddish tinge of color at the bottom of the unit.

What computer video card do i need to run 3D on Samsung 3D HDTV 240hz?

Q. I am getting a new 55" Samsung 3D HDTV 240hz 1080p LCD-LED television very soon.

My question is what video card for my computer am I going to need to run 3D games on that TV?

The video card I am using now is a ATI Radeon HD 4850
The price needs to be within $100-$400 USD

A. Details that would help would be what operating system that you plan to run. And what other specs you have for the system that you plan on using. I see that you are currently using an ATI card, so I would assume that you would want to have an ATI replacement card. I will also assume that you have enough room around your PCI slot to fit a dual slot card. Also power supply specs come in to play as well, especially where graphics are concerned. You want 600watt supply at the bare minimum. I would strongly suggest over 800watts and above to give you room to grow later.

Now you say you plan on running 3D games. That kinda narrows your list of possible choices to the more expensive end of the spectrum. Being able to play them and being able to play them well are two different things as I'm sure you know :P.

Requirements for HD3D Be sure to check that your TV is supported on this list. Also listed are the graphics cards that I recommended below. Go for the best that you can afford.
http://www.amd.com/us/products/technologies/amd-hd3d/Pages/supported-hardware.aspx

An important note from that list is that you will also have to get additional hardware. (3D glasses and such). I couldn't find any on AMD's website. Researching further into it, it appears that AMD delegates the task of 3D hardware sourcing and compatibility to third party manufacturers. The other options force you to purchase a specific monitor and glasses.

Choices:

Radeon HD 5970 (Hemlock) 2GB $499
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102887
A bit over your price range, but well worth it. Fastest card out at the moment

Then right beneath that you have the Radeon HD 5870

Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 2GB $369
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102888

I chose that specific 5870 because of the memory. It's a 2GB card, beware of the prices there. Make sure that you are paying for the memory and not for an over clocked GPU on a 1GB card. Don't settle for less than 2GB. And don't pay for an overclocked card, any overclock that you would get is marginal and could be done for free yourself if you so choose.

Comparison chart of the two so you can see the differences and decide for yourself:
http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/162?vs=165

To stay in your price range, you would want to stay with the 5870 though.

Now with all this said... I must mention that standard refresh rate for 3D is currently 120Hz and not 240Hz.
http://www.lcdtvbuyingguide.com/lcdtv/120hz-240hz-60hz.html -- Some reading on the subject.

Overall, I'd say those two cards are your choices. And congrats on the new TV. But stick with the 2D games for now, as for 3D technology, ATI doesn't seem to be on the ball.

What's the best HD tv i could buy for gaming?

Q. I want a 54 inch hdtv
and i want to play xbox 360 on it and playstation 3.
and to also watch movies...from my external hard drive thru my xbox360

thanks in advance!

A. TV size matters. In 37" and smaller you don't need to worry about the high end features because you just won't see them in those sizes. You are clearly going into the sizes where it does matter. So you need to make sure you get the better features.

If you go LCD (which I don't recommend), then you want to look at LED LCD, 1080p resolution, 120Hz or 240Hz refresh rate. This will end up being a costly set, but its what you need to deliver a good experience in a TV of that size.

If can save some green, and get a better image, and go with a Plasma. The biggest thing said against Plasmas for gaming is the burn-in factor. That is no longer an issue, and hasn't been for years. But there are lots of uneducated people out there. And the better brands (Panasonic and Samsung) even include extra anti-image retention features, above and beyond the advancements in the technology.

Though with the gaming, I might hold off on that for the first 20-50 hours. And for the first 100-200 hours keep the brightness and contrast (picture) cranked way down. That will condition the Plasma set. After that optimize and enjoy.

LCDs of larger sizes are inherently flawed in fast motion playback. They suffer from motion blur. This is compensated for with 120Hz/240Hz refresh rates. This helps but its not perfect. And you pay a tone for it. Plasma is near instantaneous response time right out of the box, nothing to pay for.

CCFL (most) LCDs have muted colors, grey blacks, and average contrast. This is compensated for with the LED LCD. That greatly improves those issues. But you will pay a massive premium for this feature. And Plasma is better on all fronts right out the box, nothing extra to pay for.

How wide is a 55" flat screen tv?

Q. Also, who makes the best LED LCD? I've heard Samsung is good with the exception of the sound quality.

A. Samsung Series 9 or Series LED
Sony XBR 8 or XBR 10
LG LH90 or SL90

All of those series of LCDs rank very well. I think you'd be in good shape with any of them. If you are not happy with the Samsung sound quality, check out the Sony or LG models and see if either of those are up to your satisfaction.

You could also check out Sharp. I think they do make an LED LCD. I just can't recall the series off the top of my head.

As for the TV size, a little grade school pythagarous can solve that...

TV diagonal is 55". HDTV is a ratio of 16:9.

(16x)^2 + (9x)^2 = 55^2
256x^2 + 81x^2 = 55^2
337x^2 = 55^2
18.357x = 55
x = 2.996

16 x 2.996 = 47.936
9 x 2.996 = 26.964

So the 55" HDTV would measure basically 48" x 27".

best 52 or 55 inch tv for sports in regular definition?

Q. I have a 42 inch LG lcd tv and sports that arent in HD especially hockey look terrible.I am looking for the a 52 or 55 inch that doesnt look terrible when watching sports in regular def.Im not sure if LCD or LED-LCD is better.

A. LED will provide you better picture quality than LCD, deeper black.
Good brand and model that I would recommend is Samsung UN55C6500 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV

or another good choice if you want for sport, not for gaming is Plasma. Plasma will provide you faster response, smoother motion which good for action sports. Panasonic or Samsung are good brand to get.

Q. Preferably a 40-49 inch, between the price range of $450-$600...

A. I would recommend you to buy it online as if you get from local stores you pay sales tax which can be $55 or more for $600 you spend.

many stores online have $0 shipping and $0 sales tax.

Original Question

Where can I find a GOOD 46" or bigger HDTV for $400 or under?

Q. I am looking for a new HDTV(1080p) either LED, LCD or both(No Plasma). Between 46" - 55" and around $400. Any ideas or pointing me in the right direction would be a big help. Thanks
Thanks for nothing Jo. But to let you know. I found a few at Best Buy in the open-box area, I've been thinking about going that way.

A. Depending on the area in which you live, Craigslist often has TVs for sale around that price range. You can also check an auction site called Proxibid. They have TVs often. If you wait until around January, then you may find TVs cheap as that is a slow retail time and prices tend to drop.
