resolution too low. 1024x768... paying for 786k pixels feels shortchanged vs normal FullHD 2.07million pixels..

Resolution is quite low but then at 42", will that make such a big difference?


By the way, I am planning to pair it with a PS3 which is used mainly for BD movies. I plan to use it occasionally with my xbox too. Is that a good choice or should I gun for something else?

So far, I have also checked out the Pana G10 series. Looks really good! drool.gif

Odd how the resolution is 1024x768 (4:3 ratio) when the panel ratio is 16:9.

the pixels are stretched.. not square..

anyway you can feed it 16:9 video and the internal processor will adjust to make it 16:9 with only 1024x768 pixels..

Ummm, what I meant was is there a noticeable difference since it's only a 42". I once read that full HD and HD ready only has a difference on 50" tvs and above.

if most of the time the display device spent on Astro / astro HD programme, then PDP-428 is perfect buy for RM4399 and to consider RM3999 for the 50" Panasonic PV80HM which better buy option too. I've the 15 months old panasonic plasma 42PV80HM model come with 5 years warranty and it works very well for astro programme (SD or HD byond) and can display Byond HD picture very clear and nice. but do pick LED or LCD display device , if you often watch Bluray movies.
