Samsung, it's a better tv than the LG you're looking at (even though it's smaller) and samsung arguably makes the best LCD's on the market (toss up between Sony and Samsung)

thats what i have heard.

Samsung, it's just a better brand. Really don't think you can go wrong with it.

have you looked at each in the store? samsung is a great brand LCD, but make sure you see it first side-by-side with the LG

Based on a lot of members posts....the consensus seems to be the Samsung and Sony are 1a and 1b as far as the LCD market goes. I would go with the Sammy as well if the price is right of course...

Nuvision or Runco LCD

I think that the Samsung will have better processing than the LG, I would also think about trying Sony Bravia.

Buy what you can afford but if it were me? It would be Sony all the way. Samsung? A close second but if you want reliablity I would go with Sony but thats just me.

wow this is a land slide haha i thought maybe it would be closer but i guess not, i mean i have a 32 LG and it works beautiful and has an awesome picture...but i guess samsung is the better choice according to you guys.
