TV help wanted! - Blu-ray Forum

goeagles5039 · 03-22-2009, 05:25 PM

Right now I just have a Westinghouse 32" 720p TV. I want to upgrade, I think I am looking for like 36" to 42", but don't want to spend a ton of money but don't want a crappy tv. Any suggestions?

goeagles5039 · 03-22-2009, 05:30 PM

Does anybody have this TV?

So is $800 your budget? dont get a vizio the pic isnt that good on them plus they are poorly made. I know of a few people that got them and had problems. With the new models coming out you can get last years for a steal. just search and you can find a 1080p 40" or higher for around $800 to $1000

You are going to get mixed answers, it will be about a 50/50 split, cant go wrong with either, I like the Sony more.

cdot2four · 03-22-2009, 06:42 PM

sony > samsung

JJ · 03-22-2009, 06:49 PM

For LCDs, I'm more of a Samsung fanboy than Sony - but its up to you to go to the store and check it out for yourself.

goeagles5039 · 03-22-2009, 10:29 PM

Cant get the sony actually cause it is only available if a store around you has it and they dont.

Blu As Hell · 03-22-2009, 11:41 PM

Let me hit you with somethin' playa, if you up the budget a hundred dollars you can get this!!!! Now I know it's 720p but, as many people will agree with me, a 720p plasma will look better than a 1080p LCD.

goeagles5039 · 03-23-2009, 01:15 AM

I want an LCD 1080p, that's is why im upgrading from my 720p.
