My bro is planning to buy a 37" LCD TV.

The Sharp LC37A33M can get for RM3000 Specs


The Pana VIERA TX-37LX80MK for RM3300 Spec

The Pana TX-37LX75MK is selling for RM2999


Is sharp better or Pana better...in terms of built and picture quality? I heard Sharp LCD very good with very little complaint.

Toshiba Regza, supports 1080i and p and use optical cable connection to an amplifier, its pure gaming core environment. The game is much lively.. Sony Bravia dont think supports 1080p (not sure ,im mayb wrong)

Toshiba Regza AV500E is the choice. the price is reasonable RM3400 if you need recommendation, contact me or pm me..

Sharp Aquos the best..

Toshiba 37AV500E only selling for RM2699 at E-Warehouse.com...why is your price so high?

wrong section...kohkohkoh

42' mate..c'mon.. check again 42 inch...

When I did my 32inch LCD viewing run, the best LCD around is : Sharp Aquos A53M model. Seriously better picture quality for both Astro and gaming, which the 100hz actually do helps a wee bit more.

I went to about 6 - 7 electrical outlets, and it took me a whole week!

But you're thinking of 37's ah? Why don't you go straight for 42" then?

the lower price i see is rm2090 for this model..

here the link to her shop adress

If it is 32A550, then it is really CHEAP. What I can say is that it is way below dealer's margin.

yup...that price during last month (merdeka offer) for 32a550
this raya price is much cheaper....but the stock i think is no there anymore...check her thread lorr..

i bought 32a450 last july for rm2050 where other shop sell higher than 2300++ that time...

BTW this the cheaper shop sell LCD-TV in town & luckliy near my home...

I'd go for Sharp, and I chose sharp because of their recognition in the LCD industry, and how I heard that the panels are directly imported from Japan instead of being assembled here. What that means is if a panel is faulty or anything, you get a new panel. At least that's what I think. I may have been gullible if I'm wrong but I love my now OLD Sharp Aquos PX5, sigh.

Electrical shop got raya offer selling RM3499 for LA32A650A1R and RM2999 for LA32A550P1R if not mistaken
Got freebies somemore: Microwave oven & cutlery set

Hmm kinda expensive for the LA32A650A1R? has anyone seen a cheaper one in KL?

P.S. : If anyone know any online store which also have a local store please reply asap. [ Example : SenQ ]

here the link to shop adress
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/504436

2) Samsung 40" FHD Lcd LA40A550 = FINISH

3) Samsung 46" FHD Lcd LA46A550 = FINISH

4) Samsung 52" FHD Lcd LA52A610 = RM 6990

Sharp LC32A53M, any issue with ghosting?

im using samsung 32a550p1rxxm dcr 35000:1 can do 19x10 @ 60Hz
if look longer ur eye might tired.

But Sharp Aquos seem blocky picture when watching ASTRO and some shadow seem followed by human motion.. No?
Samsung seem has no such problem..

I think Sony/Panasonic better...both deliver smooth pictures...

Here's a satisfied owner of Sharp Aquos LC32A53M..no ghosting whatsoever. Best brand IMHO. The double frame rate does shows difference in movement of pictures. PS3 quality are superb!!

guys no need to ask loh~~ for gaming sure is SONY BRAVIA loh haha !!! COME LET JOIN OUR SONY FAMILY HAHA !!!

If only the stores could display their LCD tvs connected to ps3. Then it would be a lot easier for me to pick the one that best suits my eyes heheh they'd probably be pissed off if i bought my set and tested each TV..

it always been sharp...
the number 1 lcd in japan
wooo

Sharp all the way...

I think plasma is way better than any lcd. thinking of getting a 50" full HD plasma soon.

Then no need to open this thread i think....

Sharp aquos i believe is better...caz most of the game shops are using Sharp as display...and my supplier uses Sharp Aquos as well...

Panasonic??never seen many using it around.

haha for ur information la..
panasonic only best for plasma ..
sharp good for lcd ..but about sound ..very poor
try to check sharp LC37A53M ..dat is 100hz ..good for games or watching sport and action movie
btw ..plasma old technology..like 5 years ago ..
btw !! buy a good brand for LCD ..like samsung or sony ..
haaha me olwes sell lcd ..so many customer ask what different between plasma and lcd ..

Actually, U can do that...

I ask this salesperson at Carrefour MidValley name Lee...

He said no problem...

U might try to ask 1st at anywhere where u want to buy...

TQ

i am using PLP-32PFL5203S for my ps3......
excellent!
i play mgs4 damn nice.......haha

hehe my philips buddy..

My LC32A53M ( Sharp Aquos 100Hz ) really worth it for PS3 gaming and BD movies...Double Thumbs Up !~

Using the same Sharp model here. Great for movies and HTPC. But i don't believe the 100Hz crap...in fact, there's no mention of 100Hz anywhere in the manual....just the double frame yadda thingy...switched on the demo to see the difference, no difference at all. And the TV always runs at 50Hz or 60Hz respectively at 1080i/720p.

Still, great TV. But the 100Hz thing is bull AFAIK. You can try to press the TV 'display' button and it'll show the info of the TV...Hz and resolution. Please let me know if you do see '100Hz'. Thanks.

Added on November 27, 2008, 12:10 pmPlasma is > LCD for movies.

But LCD > Plasma for games and HTPC because of the higher resolution.

Sharp is number 1 LCD in Japan, and to quote someone, Sony is number 1 in advertising their products.

Sharp > Sony.

sharp is lcd panel producer...even pioneer's new lcd lineup using sharp's panel

no 1 onot dats not important...get lcd that ur eyes like n within ur budget...

I bought sharp lc37a33m at sen q last 2month.rm3299.00 free 1 lg dvd player.3 years warranty.quiet ok compare to my old 29 inch pasanosic tv.better get 37 or bigger screen if u want to upgrade from 29 inch tv.fine to watch dvd.but my antena got some problem so tv station was so so.planing to get a hdtv received unit for singapore hd tv programe.but it cost around rm 2k to get one at jb.anyone got better deal.maybe I just get a usb dvbt tv dongle for my pc first.any suggestion ?

not worth la bro
only ch5 got hd in certain movies.......

Using Sharp LC37A53M here.. and so far no complaint.. Seeing lot of user here using the same model too.. must be good, rite..

Matrix,

Yes, im also never see 100Hz thing.. only display 60Hz, but no problem whatsoever..

Yes lots of gamers here using the Sharp Aquos 100Hz LCD TV...Love it , worth for my $...

Just found out that Panasonic 32LX800 eats Sharp LC32A53M.
Cheaper, newer, and better specs.

ic..nevermind liao..hahah.

go for sharp... service support very good. came to my house fix my 32" after 1 day report.. huhu

i already owned one..hahah..yes go for sharp...aquoooosss !

I am using Panasonic....and so far i am satisfied with it. The new Panasonic has better brightness compare to sharp.

My bro just got an A53 during a Jusco sale, a bit jealous but I'm still happy with my PX5, they look nearly identical anyway.

im using 32' sharp aquos for my gaming pc..so far loving it

100 hz seriously improve the image to the max. Didn't know it makes so much different for movies and games..

im using panasonic 32lx800 for PS3...

next time will go for 37 LZ800 with full HD and 100 hz or better...

nothing much u can different ...

TQ

100Hz is not for gaming

It still helps to eliminate ghosting.

well you can't say all of them.

what I have tested that with 100 hz it works well with "big object" graphics.

but I tried fifa 09... doesn't look that great with 100 hz.

i word for sharp

What is the new model from panasonic?

i'm currently thinking of Sharp LC32A53M & LG 32LG60 for 32" Still deciding do i really need Full HD or HD Ready for my room...

If 32 inch go for Sharp Aquos LC32A53M ( 100Hz )..HD just enough for 32 inch , 40 inch upwards then go for FULL-HD

Thats why u luv sumo rite?
Believe ur eye lor....
my eye: panny looks better...

Here's a more definitive discussion thread on Plasma/LCD TVs:
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/782935

I am actually deciding this 2 models to get, do you have the link or source to this statement?

Started my research at LYN very own LCD and Plasma TV discussion thread, then google about IPS Alpha Panels and all. End up getting to a few threads in avforums.com and also some av enthusiast forums in India and Indonesia.

Anyway trust your eyes. Bring your console to the store and test.

If you wanna get a Panny I'd recommend this seller: iamsobloodysick

His price is cheaper compared to retail. Comes with valid warranty. His shop is in Kajang or thereabouts.
For the aforementioned LX800, it's RM21XX compared to retail RM24XX.

Added on January 5, 2009, 2:03 ambtw the 32A53 is cheaper now I think.

My bf is using a Panasonic Viera 42" Plasma actually and every1 seems to say its nice.

Price is RM3600+

Do you know what is the response time for Panny LX800 and the Sharp A53M models?

Sharp is 4ms, Panny is 6ms.
Anyways the black level on the IPS Alpha panel is deeper, and the colors are very accurate. The viewing angle is also wider - 178 degree.

What's the current price of the A53? Last I checked it was still 2400-ish.

I'd say Sharp

and the warranty is 2 years compare to 1 yr by Pana (LCD TV)

i have used my console on the Panasonic LCD and it looks good.

panasonic viera also good what

if wanna play games go for LCD Sharp.for movies go for plasma Panasonic...

Is Plasma good for games too? If its good for movies, I can't see any reason why it won't be good for gaming as compared to LCD.

SHarp Aquos for sure!

kena bli dua lah. kaya leh la.

I m considering samsung 40"LA450 or Philips 42"PL3403, any comments?

I'm a Sharp fanboi, so Sharp all the way

The PL3403 has a little bit of "ghosting" on very fast moving scenes, however it does triumph over the Samsung LA450 interms of contrast and image sharpness. You can go for either of them, I'd personally suggest the Phillips because of their ambilight feature which is keeps the TV relatively cool and consume much lesser power for a 40-incher.

Thanks SSJBen for ur advice, seems not many ppl talking about philips LCD here! i went to harvey norman yesterday n 1 malay sales approached me n explain all the pros n cons on LCD to me which is quite details. According to him (i m not 100% agree) Japanese always have a upper hand over t korean esp in term of durability due to QC. He highly suggest Toshiba Regza 42AV550E. After my 2 weeks researh, this is my finding of like n unlike:-

a) Samsung LA450 - Modern n nice desgin, more input connection (3HDMI + 2 component input ), 40" maybe just nice for my watching distance @ approx 7 ft , Swivel stand useful to me, picture processing quality/power nt as good as others.

b) Phlips PFL3403 - Modern n nice desgin, 1 component input (seems nt enuf if wana connect my exisitng DVDplayer & my RMVB player, maybe can use the VGA connection for my rmvb player!), better response time n color processing power, no swivel stand

c) Toshiba 42AV550E - flat design, no side connection which might be inconvenient if i wall mount my LCD, feature almost similar to philips but haven compare the picture quality side by side, no swivel stand

d) Sharp LC37A37M: Design quite nice, 8bit processing (really matter?), highly recommended here, no 42" HD ready in the latest model lineup (full HD out of my budget oledi)

Conclusion: the more u research the harder to decide.
