I am getting a new TV ( about 19-23 in) and I will be placing it on top of a tall dresser. I’ve noticed some some screens are become dark and hard to watch when viewed from this angel. What type of TV should I get? ( LCD, Plasma, LED, DLP, etc.)
Plasma would be best but they don’t come that small. Only LCDs do, and you won’t be able to see it very well up high. See if you can find a lower position for the tv if at all possible.
I’m looking at the LG 42PQ10 which seems too good to be true except that it’s 720p. It’s 545.00 shipped (http://www.retrevo.com/search?q=LG+42PQ10&rt=sp). The LG plasmas that I have seen have looked pretty good, but I’m new to the whole HDTV thing and am having some trouble wrapping my head around it. I’ve seen high priced LCD and plasma TVs that didn’t look as good as the one I have now despite impressive specifications. I really want an LED TV, but it seems kind of silly to buy them now since their prices will probably be going down a lot over the next couple of years. I make it a point to never buy a technology as soon as it comes out. My main fear is that I’m going to spend a bunch of money on a tv, move this 300 pound monster I’ve been using (37 inch apex flatscreen from back when they were fat) down stairs and then hook up the new one to find that the picture isn’t as good. I’m really sick of researching this.
What actually looks better
A: 120 hertz motionflow LCD
B: 600 hertz Plasma.
Please help. Thanks.
Television is a thing that you can’t buy by reading text and looking at pictures. You have really to go to the store, sit there and watch the TV turned on.. live and see its quality.
However, one thing I can update you to…
Plasma is a system that they developed that is very annoying if you don’t use it right. It will only result in a clean (out of noise and rain) image if the TV is at a certain distance from your eye which is quite big. In addition to that, it is a product with a short perspective of life being that once it is "exhausted" it can’t be fixed (because of the gas that is hold inside being that it can only work back if you change it and do a lot of modifications which will cost more than a brand new tv)
LCD is better than plasma, in quality from a closer view and life span. However it has its advantages too… related to buying cost and fixing prices and more.
The thing is… you have to know how big and how you are going to set up the TV in your place, and get to the store and see a bunch of them working to compare and decide for the best quality.
i am gonna get a new tv soon and i just wanted to know which one is better i am planning to get 32 inch samsung LED or should i buy one of the sony x series, plz tell me any lcd or led tv that are good. I am wanting to buy lcd or led tv from 32 inch to 50 inch. In which i can afford only 1500 dollars less. So plz give me any good hd tv worth to buy first best answer will get 10 points.
an important question is how far away you are sitting from the tv. look up some charts online and find out the ‘proper viewing distance’ for different size tvs.
that will decide what technology you can afford. if you need a 50" tv, then you won’t be able to get LED on your budget
I would by Samsung no matter what. check out their product line at samsung.com and get the best model you can afford for the correct size for your room.
crazy ed makes a good point. If your viewing room is very dark, like a basement, then plasma is probably the best choice. if you have lots of sun or very bright lights, go with led or lcd.
Just bought a new samsung led-lcd 46” 1080p tv and want to know if anyone knows the best way to set up the picture to make it look spectacular. Thanks.
put in a dvd with a thx optimizer and set your tv with that . or call a tech to set it up professionally.
