QUOTE(AlamakLor @ Dec 31 2006, 01:17 AM) yeah, the same problem was reported on the dell lcd. Some say it has nothing to do with the sizes, but I think that banding would seem more prominent on larger screens. This is a common problem with LCD technology, but as I said, it is getting more serious nowadays Do you know any banding problem exists in Plasma tv? It seems I cannot find it in my plasma.    |

QUOTE(AlamakLor @ Jan 5 2007, 01:38 AM) I've checked with some guys on AVSforum and seems like plasma doesnt suffer from banding problem I m glad to hear that !!   So far I m satisfied using my plasma. Just need to becareful not to let any static image on the screen for more than 8 hours. A decent 42" 1080i screen will costs less than RM 7K nowadays. Regarding 1080p screen, I don't think you can see any difference unless your screen more than 50". |

QUOTE(sunauto @ Jan 5 2007, 09:03 AM) Is it true that plasma consumes more power than lcd tv? As for static images, it's hard to avoid sometimes like the CNN, Channel 8 / 9 logo or if you're playing a RPG like Final Fantasy for hours, stuff like that. However, I believe the current plasma tvs have less of the burn in issues especially those using the Alis technology. LCDs use florescent backlighting to produce images, they require substantially less power to operate than plasmas do. LCD TVs consume about half the power that plasma displays consume. The reason: Plasmas use a lot of electricity to light each and every pixel you see on a screen - even the dark ones. Though plasma manufacturers have improved voltage consumption requirements a plasma TV will consume around a third more power for the same size display.Actually for playing games, I would recommend LCD. Plasma is NOT designed for connecting to PC. Its best for watching movies. Try not to watch a TV channel with logo for a very long period, but then normally you will get the see all those "nice" advertisement in between which lasts for 1-3 minutes, so thats not a problem. |

QUOTE(AlamakLor @ Jan 7 2007, 11:15 AM) no idea, but the graphics is actually very good. It is just alot worse on RP. I'm actually a little hesitant to pick up the plasma due to the burn in issue, I'm wondering if it'd be ok for gaming. Plasma is NOT OK for gaming. |

QUOTE(highlander8 @ Jan 9 2007, 08:38 PM) After going through many rounds of survey to compare between LCD and Plasma, finally my choice still go to Plasma. My observation was better PQ, natural & realistics colours and also clear & crisp fast moving pictures. Yes, u have made the RIGHT choice !! Again, some of my friends think LCD is better but at the end it still comes to individual preference.  I have to agree with u. Plasma is BEST for movies. |

I think LCD technology is just good to use as computer monitor screen.
To use as a TV, LCD is still a long way to match up with CRT or even plasma.  |
