My limit is £1000, could go a lilttle a bit above this if anyone reccomends a better TV Samsung 32" Panasonic 32" JVC 32" Or I could get this 42" but dont know if it is any good ? LG 42" I havnt got a clue about HDTV so could anyone with one or anyone know anything about them tell me which one is the best to buy and why ? thx Panasonics are always quality. Really good brand.

Matt Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 why not? m8 Because they're the cheap, cheap, cheap HD-TVs and you can tell if you compare them to other ones. The picture quality is just baaaad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The3rdChildren Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Because they're the cheap, cheap, cheap HD-TVs and you can tell if you compare them to other ones. The picture quality is just baaaad. Mine is great. They can't be too bad if Microsoft are using them to showcase high definition video to a majority who have never seen it. Besides, the Samsung had the best picture of all the displays units in my local Comet and a cool triangular design I'm sold on superficial things like that. I've had no problem with it whatsoever. Couldn't be a happier camper, although I'm certainly not camp. There's also the final matter of an expensive Panasonic DVD player I bought just breaking randomly so I need a reason to avoid the Pan, there it is.

Matt Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Oh no, they do look ok, just not great. I've go no quibbles with anything else about them (as I don't have one) but the picture quality IS inferior to a lot of other makes. It's FACT. I was gonna go with one, because I assumed they'd be the best (being on the demo pods and all) but I read a load of reviews, got a load of prices (did my research, basically) and lots of places said what I said above. And when I play the demo pods, the quality really is noticebly different, honest. The only thing shitty about my Panasonic is the fact that it doesn't have VGA input. Grrr.

m_fergy Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I think im going to go with the JVC 32" But after reading about i saw on this site that it hasnt got DVI Input ? Will i need to get a HDTV with DVI Input on ? Site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Your best bet, chap, is to take your 360 along to a Currys/Dixons/whatever and try out all three. You'll notice the differences/pros/cons then, won't you? Do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
