today my old flat screen TV just broke down, so now i need to find a FULL HD LCD TV for replacement, looking for 40" so that my desktop and laptop can connect it to watch movie and doing other stuff

what's in my mind was the samsung and sony, and it seems like i only interest in this brand, sony spec is good but the price are higher, but good thing doesnt come cheap, i like samsung design, but their spec aren't that high.

need the LCD TV to have S-video and VGA input to connect to my pc, must be 40"

so any recommendation for samsung or sony FULL HD LCD TV?

what is the max budget you can go ? Do u play bluray ? HDMI ?

try sony 40 V400A, the downgrade model of W series

yet the price is affordable

RM4k, will play everything in the future, but the most important is there's a PC analog output...

how about the price of S series?

yesterday i see some model in samsung website, the LA40M81B seems to be worth of money, but the dynamic contrast ratio is just 10000:1 which is not so much

i also interest in some model in samsung, but the spec in the website there seems to be lack of informations, how come most of the model doesn't have PC input

Either Samsung 6 series or Sony 40V400A (that's what i am using) both have VGA input. But rem VGA can only go to 1366 x 760 even if the LCD is full HD.

Sony S-series about the same as V series... just that I did not like the design.

I had a tough time choosing between the two at the end of last year but went with Sony just because Sony Style could do 36x interest free installments. Price wise, after rebates, freebies, both about the same... close to 5K... at that time.

close to 5k? but i only have a budget of 4k, when you brought it? maybe it drop price already

just now i went to the sony website, and it only have 37" V series, cant seems to find the 40" in V series

how much is the price for samsung 6 series? so far i've seen, the LCD TV in samsung that on par with V or S series is 5 series or 6 series.

Close budget would be Panasonic TX-42LZ80MK or Samsung LN40A550 oR LN40A610. Price range RM3k+

not interest in panasonic

what about LA40A650? how is the price?

and is there any website i can roughly check the price of the LCD TV in the market?
