Which of these is better? - Blu-ray Forum

MarkJ801 · 05-16-2008, 12:58 AM

I'm thinking of getting a tv with an in store credit card, and Walmart seems to have the best with no interest for 12 months. I want full 1080p, and want to spend only around $1000. Here are the ones on the website:

RCA - http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=9188652
Sanyo - http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=9106633
Vizio - http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=8477431
Magnavox - http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=9193473

So what do you think of those are the best bargain and quality? Or is there something else you can recommend? I'm also thinking of doing Best Buy, but their no interest is only for 6 months. Thanks for the suggestions

i think you should wait and go bestbuy...their no interest offers change weekly, they constantly have 18mos,24mos...no interest. Much better than 12 month.

Definitly Best Buy or Circuit City. These are okay but soon you will see how muck better is out there for same price. Got my Sony at HH Gregg. 24 months no interest and best price.

I agree try not to buy a tv from walmart not only for the brand but for the support. If and only if it was these 4 I would go with the RCA (Really Crappy Accessories).

I'd go with the Vizio

I'd definitely recommend Best Buy as well (or Future Shop if you are in Canada). Wal-Mart is not a place that I would trust to provide a high quality TV worthy of my high end home theatre. From what I have seen, their TVs are always only a resolution of 1080i (which is actually a lie since they don't display more than 796 lines of resolution... they round it up because it is technically better than 720p, but only by a very slight degree).

Oh okay. So what would you guys recommend from Best Buy?
