Thanx. I have one more question. Is this shop reliable? From what i see the price is pretty reasonable imo. What do you think?

http://www.ewarehouse.com.my/index.asp

And what does it mean by "Recommend cash price(RCP)"

They selling Samsung 32" Full HD LA32A550 at the price of rm3199, which i saw at Midvalley's HSL which cost rm3499.

i think it's reliable because i went to search for their collection shop at Kepong and it's really there and have a 100% positive feedback in lelong.com

The only problem is... i dont think they accepting any kind of credit card installment... since i'm a mid wage salary worker...

hi experts
any idea how is Philips 32PFL3403S perform ? anyone used this before ???

The W400A is not 100Hz panel even though it's 1080p. This panel is below the X series which is 1080p and 100Hz.

Well, the W400A is quite similar to the V400A series in shape, size and weight series except for the Wide Colour Gamut and 10bit backpanel available on the W400A.

Is the 32" W400A available in Malaysia?

Don't think the V400A or the S400A panel for that matter is 10bit though.

i want to know on this also.. is philips any good?

RCP - Means it is the retail price by manufacturer. In this case, it is negotiable.

Toshiba LCD Regza claims giving natural PQ. The price for 32' Regza rm1999 at denki mines, very tempting. Contrast 28000:1 and giving free S-Vid cable. I'm going to get this one end of this week.

I remember during the roadshow it was displayed. And the price was 4k sumthing.

hi guys, just came back from legend ss2, checking the sony 32'' v400 and sharp 32'' a53m..the salesman said dont get sony as it gets its oem from samsung and that sony really didnt do the lcd,the parts from other brand.is that true? he also said samsung is the no.1 in malaysia and sharps parts made in china...i saw samsung 5 series 32'', its very nice, how is it? any comments on the lcd? 1 more question, the sony 32'' v400 is the new line from sony for v series,how is it compare to the famous 32'' d series? any good? planning to get 1 tomorrow...thanks..

It's better to trust your eyes than the salesman.

Yes, the Sony panel and Samsung panel are from the same supplier. However, the processor (heart of the LCD TV) is of utter importance, which will affect the PQ of the LCD TV.

As for Sharp, even if it is made in China, that doesnt make it a bad product as such MNC will impose stringent QC as to protect their image. No offence, the salesman is a crap!

me too.. i saw LA32A550 (the one you saw..) at HSL and pretty attracted with that model. The cheapest LCD TV with Full HD i saw until now... I tried finding sharp and panasonic 1st 32 inch full hd in the market but all the salesman said not selling anymore. sigh.... wonder where i can see it and make compare with LA32A550.

Does the 100Hz LCD TV makes a lot of difference if compared to the ordinary 60Hz panel???

salesman nowadays.... which ever brand gives more profit and they badmouth other brands....

Yes it does. Especially for scenes with panning motion or fast action scenes.

hi guys,

wanna ask bout 40/42 panel, i'm going to feed it with the console, laptop and hdmi dvd player. considering the sony's KLV-40S400A and lg's 42LG53FR. both of them are full hd right.

sony's 40s400a is not a 100Hz panel right? and how about lg's? how bout the response time for the s400a, can't find it on the sony's web.

i'm also wondering about the their PQ's. is there's any big difference between them? i've seen the 40s400a being feed with a samsung's hdmi bd player and it's . For the lg's, i've only managed to view a feed from a component cables and there's a strange jaggy lines on it, could it be that it's being caused by the setup and not by the tv?

i'm in favor for the s400a but if the lg's is not too inferior (in quality and support) when compared to it, might as well get the lg's and i can save around rm700 (and then lose it again for the LBP and POP at the end of the year hehe..)

thinking on getting it next weekend. appreciate all feedbacks. thanks.

So far, my research for 32"
All this model support 1020p signal (input not output)

All sony bravia (certain model FULL HD)
Samsung series 4, 32a450 ( model i want to grab this november - habis study) - (series 5 Full HD)

L32a01a - Hitachi
L32s01a - Hitachi

32LG30Ra - LG
32LB9r - LG
32LB9r1 - LG
32LG50d - LG
32LG60UR - LG
32LC4R -LG
32LC7R - LG

32LX800MK - Panasonic

For sharp...pity cannot accept the 1080p signal for 32''
Ok...anyone know the price just add on the side (right) of model above...

can i ask 1 thing, i was planning to buy a 46" LCD TV for Movie, PS3 and Blu Ray as well, now my concern is, should i take the Sony W Series, or the Samsung 6 Series, i not really sure which is better, hope someone there could answer my noob question. =.=" Thanks Ya. ^.^

samsung 6 series has better response time and also 100hz motion thingy.. compared to the plain w series sony..

Is the Panasonic 32LX800MK any good? Most of the electrical shops I went don't even have a display unit and the sale persons all discourage me from buying. Most of them asked me to buy Sony or Samsung instead. Any opinion? I am looking for a 32" LCD for PS3, Blue-Ray and also Astro.

What's the price of the Samsung 6 series? If the Samsung is also Full HD at 100Hz and cheaper than Sony W400A series, then it's something worth considering.

wah so cheap...where do u buy it?

Be careful about 100hz Lcd panel. I read a review which says that it makes the picture look very amateurish. For me I would prefer just the regular 60hz panel. After all bluray movies are only 24fps and fast moving pictures are suppose to have motion blur to look like fast moving. 100hz tends to make the fast moving picture look static therefore not giving you the sense of motion. I guess that is why the reviewer says 100hz Lcd panel tends to make pictures look amateurish.

I can't really tell you which LCD suites you better, you've got to see it for yourself to actually like it. Some people has specific brands in mind, so despite how good other LCD TVs are compared to the brand they have in mind, they would still go for the brand instead, like Sony.

As for the price ranges, you can see that there's some LCD TVs that range around RM2k+. Most of the are, of course, labeled as HD ready only. Which means they only display a lower resolution compared to the ones labeled Full HD. If you're planning to get a 40 inch or a 42 inch, it's recommended that you get the ones with Full HD instead. Even the smaller ones, contrary to popular belief that it doesn't make a difference if your screen size is smaller that you wouldn't notice any difference, is incorrect. If you can afford one with Full HD, then take the Full HD instead of the HD ready TV.

Brand wise, there's a lot to choose from. The popular brands in this forum are Sony, Samsung and Panasonic (mostly Plasma TVs). They have the most choices to choose from compared to the other brands. Try getting the middle ranges series. For eg. Samsung has 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9 series TVs. The high end ones are the 6,7 and 9. They'll cost you a bomb but they're definitely the cream of the cream. Series 4 and 5 are the ones in the mid-range, which is decent enough for the money you're paying.

Try going to their respective official sites and read more about their LCD TVs. You'll generally get a better understanding and you'll the know advantage of one brand over the other.

... so on and so forth.

Hope this helps.

oh..thx!! it helps alots ^^

today i saw promo samsung la40a450 rm 3799 only at sen heng......is it a great deal?

Yes, it is.

Anyone have any ideas what is the cheapest 46"-50" Full HD LCD tv now? Thinking of getting one.

if vcheap but pq avthing no good, u wan?

I don't really need high end one. I think most low end LCD already pretty good. Just not much bells and whistle.

is fullHD really tat necesary?
i would rather go for better PQ HD ready rather than lower quality but fullHD

any recommendation of hd ready 37" lcd?brand n model n market price?
and 1 more question,is it that buy the tvs from SAMSUNG shop is cheaper than others?i mean is it the retailer shop or other?hmm?anyone?

i bought samsung ln40a450 yesterday...everything perfect except there is one dead pixel!!!!

is that covered by the warranty??? i call the shop but they said thats normal!...help!!! what can i do?

Where's the dead pixel? If its smacked right in the center of the screen, then u might be able to argue that it disrupts your viewing pleasure.
But to be honest, if u view the screen at "normal" distance, I doubt u can see the dead pixel.

You should have checked the panel before u accepted it.

Also, I'm pretty sure Samsung doesn't cover a single dead pixel. I have two 32" LCDs from them and my experience with the Samsung warranty is anything but satisfactory.

avoid samsung

LOLz...
But Samsung's side-by-side-door fridge is really good...

That is you, but I would rather go for full HD since the price has come down so much and since i'm planning on a 50" screen.

i actually did check it when they delivered to my house, i use fullscreen image of white, red, green, blue. no dead pixel. the dead pixels
(2 of them) only appear after about 3 hours later....

i should have listen to you, i did read your experience on r7 and r8 of samsung...i am being fooled by the cnet, zdnet review..aiihhh..

they said samsung model a450 better then sony s400/m4000.

Added on August 11, 2008, 6:37 pm
my recommendation to you...buy any brand except SAMSUNG.

i bought samsung a450 yesterday..got 2 dead pixel...call the shop to replace with a new set.
the new set also got one dead pixel...then i give-up..i just hav to live with that one dead pixel...

i just hope no more dead pixel popping out soon.

ya, tats me
fullHD is superficial to me

but how much of your source gonna be in fullHD?

if u feed rubbish in then rubbish out also

pointless

Why don't you stick with standard defination. That is where most of the source is....astro, dvd, vcd, etc.

Added on August 12, 2008, 1:29 pm

what about 1080P beauty in 1080P beauty out!!! If I only have 20% of my source in fullhd, i will still go for full hd especially larger screen because I want to be future proof.

why stick with SD wen my source are mainly HD?

future proof? then u might as well wait more for the price to drop, frankly like u say, the price is relly dropping like bird shit for hullHD panels

but then agian, iknow $$ not an issue for u lar

found

sharp lcd 32" a33 for rm 1799
and sony s400a for rm 2199


is that cheap?

where did u saw?

That IS cheap. Share the shop with us please.

yeahlah,dun just showoofff,also share with us mah bro^^thks!

not showoff la. i also havent buy yet

it is at klang.... was doing some window shopping... pass by a kedai electrik... selling that

can use credit card without extra charge

if you are from klang, the shop is at bayu perdana

they have branch at KL too.. but to check back the name card.. forgot the address


anyway which is better ah???? having problem to choose...
google tells me sharp is better in picture quality... but i like sony... but sharp is cheaper..... aiyoyo


anyway sharp is limited units only... if you want better get it fast

Can you give an example of a lowsy FullHD vs good HD Ready? I don't think a lot can understand what you're trying to say.

Added on August 13, 2008, 8:56 pm

Wah, this is the first time I'm hearing. Especially with the prices you got.

yeah but i still need any expert suggestion on which should I buy

Yesterday I went to ESH to do a comparison.. somehow Sony look little bit better in terms of colors

jchue, its easy, try comparing sony S series fullHD with their V or D series HD ready model, there is a reason for the price difference u know
