Sorry.

Two Model In My Consideration

Shall I Get Plasma With HD Ready OR LCD With Full HD?

Newbie Here. Quite Confusing On Choosing LCD vs Plasma/ HD Ready vs Full HD.

His link pretty much explains everything.

But for me, anything above 42" I'll get Full HD cuz that's where the difference begins to become obvious.

I've been there too, and after researching for quiet a bit googling on LCD vs Plasma, and a lot of electrical shop visit here is what I learn.

i ) 720p = HD Ready, 1080p = Full HD.
ii) If less than 50 inch , 720p is suffice, save you hundreds of bucks too. sauce : http://reviews.cnet.com/720p-vs-1080p-hdtv..._content;rb_mtx
iii) Plasma is better in term of colour vs price. A more expensive LCD TV will match contrast ratio/ color vividness of Plasma however cheaper LCD(same price with Plasma with same size) will have grayish black area, esp when viewing in dark room.
iv)Full HD is good if you plan to use the TV as a PC monitor, the fonts will be more clearer. For Xbox and PS3 720p suffice as most of the wording in larger font.

Its best if you go to shop and check out urself, make sure the video sauce is highest quality and compare the two models. 720p vs 1080p aside Check out the features too, e.g how many connector, if you have PS3 , XBox360 and a PC connected to it, you might want to check how many HDMI and other connector port available.

Sidenote: LED is damn awesome.. too bad its a bit too expensive, waiting for it to drop in 3k-4k range.

Just get for plasma for my mother house...interested to getting 50" Full HD...but salesman said HD Ready also enough for Astro Beyond...

I bought already 42" Pana P42X28K at RM1999.

Thinking want to get 50" but since my mother staying at flat...42" inch also enough for replace old model 29 flat crt Pana...

yup, go 4 it ! it is da better choice considering its price 'downfall' nwdays...

Go to Neo pdp v20 plasma, it's really good for all use like Tv channel, gaming, and movies.
I got it last mth. It's really the nicer tv i never saw b4. All what LCD, or LED or others chips of plasma except pioneer Kuro, can stay away. Good in motion, colour, picture quality all good.1 word good!!!

sakana-san tumpang thread

how bout 32" full HD LED? any recomendation.. 100hz is a plus!

i am a very unlucky few that totally can differentiate 1080p n 720p on 32"

if u have unlimited money..go for full hd
if u wanna save money..just get hd ready
seriously u wont notice or realise much difference since ur not gonna have both panel side to side (for me at least..cant say for the rest)
for me even hd ready is enough already
it depends on how far ur tv is from u as well
and also are u willing to spend XXX amount for bd movies
but one thing i do believe tho...i think sony has a better non reflective screen
its really annoying to watch movies in the morning with reflective screen lol

if dont wat reflecting screen go for lcd or led

I will switch off lamp when don't want to see reflecting...

lol... i tried tis 'method' b4... bt my house cannot la... once i switch off da lights only, mosquitos come n attack me repeatly...

Cheers "Johnny comes lately" for the fun of the day.

For ur reference im currently using a lg hd ready plasma.. i have no brand loyalty
i would say im really satisfied with the purchase (except for the reflection )
im just speaking from my experience.. all those are my personal opinion
but if u wanan dispute it with ur own funfacts thats fine with me

Go Full HD... and i think better get the lcd type...

just pasang those mosquito repellent then!

btw guys , either then hd ready or full hd there are like other fuctions that should be considered, as i just "awaken" by a very helpful lcd salesman. its call "motion interpolation" have u ever heard of those branding/funtion on certain set like sony's motion flow 200hz, philips's hd natural motion n so forth..

it seriously change the way i look for lcd/led now, the smoothness on bluray make it totally different experience. maybe u guys should check out, next time u go to telly shops that is

I still prefer plasma for better color reproduction compared to LCD.

Btw, I recall someone actually did the maths to dispel the issue of plasma's higher electricity consumption compared to LCD. The result was one where the difference is something like under RM100 a YEAR for a typical home user scenario

You can read review regarding TV power consumption from cnet. Although it's based on US model & price, power consumption is more or less same with comparable asia model. Their rate is based on USD 0.1155/kWh. As a comparison, our rate is RM 0.218/kWh for the first 200 kWh & RM 0.334 for the next 200 kWh.
