Switching from a Standard TV to LED

[Rajesh R Subramanian]

Mine is from the "Viera" series too. I don't even remember the price, model number, or type (LED, plasma, whatever) because I just don't watch TV, and this is for my parents who watch it. I have to tell that it is quite a nice TV though. The Samsung ones are quite good too. I recommend that you have the store assistant play the same video on two TVs (samsung and panasonic) side by side and decide which one would be better for you. Somehow, the brand LG is associated with the word "cheap" in my mind, and I'll never buy anything from them too. I'll add that I've always had good experiences buying samsung (phone, notebooks, ac, tv) and panasonic (ac, tv, sound system) products.

If you do decide to go with the Sony, for goodness sake don't register on-line.

I'll have to lookup Samsung I guess. Let me see what I come up with. :)

Yeah that's often a tie breaker for sure but then some stores do deliberately turn up or turn down the TV settings to promote something I suppose.

That's all that really needs to be said.

If you go with the Sony, don't take the foolish risk of connecting it to your computer in any way.

While I agree that Sony are a blood sucking bunch of raving idiots, they do make excellent TVs, we are extremely happy with our 3yo Bravia.

I don't know about in your neck of the woods, but here in sunny Oz I wouldn't touch LG with a bargepole. Cheaply made, feature rich but worthless crap. I know a number of people that have bought LG goods (DVD players in particular) that fail to work, over heat, just stop working etc. even the local electrical retailers tend to disparage their quality.

I have the 5700 (47in) LG and it’s a great TV, no complaints about it at all (I really like the netflix integration).

You should hold out a little longer then get a 3D model. :-D
