LCD HDTV Questions?

[Portuguese Godfather]

So im tryna get a hdtv thats lcd and im looking between 25 to 35 inches or more for 750 or less.... all i can find is these off brands like olevia and norcent and astar through target.... are these good or should i go for a smaller sharp or something like that...

olevia aint bad. but try other sites walmart.com, sears.com, newegg.com. best buy and circuit city high price like no other.

that one is cheap for the size and it has a lot of inputs. lots of audio video forums love it for hte price. there is always something better but for the price and connection and resolution its hard to beat that tv.

If you want the best quality, you gotta go with Pioneer...

yeah if you got 3 thousand laying around

pioneer is wack. overpriced. overratted and underfeatured. mane you cant be gettin a good hdtv at a place like target. search around for panasonic, mitsubishi, sony, samsung, lg.. shit like that. get up on a payment plan with circuit city or best buy. if your gonna be buyin a nice hdtv you might as well get a good one. you get what you pay for.

dont go to best buy or circuit city. if you search the model number online you can find it 200-500 cheaper then what you would at bestbuy. sometimes you get free shippin for 49.99 shippin which aint bad cus your still saving money.

like this one used to be 1,099.99 at best buy but i guess they lowered the price a li.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...=samsung+lcd+26&type=product&id=1134702961701

then here at amazon.com, same tv for 829.99 with free shipping.

http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B000ELSXYA/ref=s9_asin_image_1/103-8313062-1455847

so you can save almost 200 from going thru amazon instead of best buy.

thx but i aint trryna drop too much money and the thing about them payment plans is that you gotta be payin for like 10 yrs dont you and alll the interest and shit fucks you up....

 

[Portuguese Godfather]

oh and is the difference between 780p and 1080 that big or what?

 

[|GOD|||ZILLA|]

depends what 1080 your talkin' 'bout.. 1080i or 1080p.. the highest quality from hdtv is only 1080i.. and dependin' on the quality of your lcd 720p might be better for viewin' sports or anything with fast movin' action in it... 1080p is only useful if you have blu-ray or hddvd(ps3 or xbox360)...

 

[hella_numb]

1080p is the best right now, but most tv shows that are in HD are 420p or 720p. you wont be able to tell the difference between 720p or 1080p unless you got a tv over 50 inches big.

 

[|GOD|||ZILLA|]

but most tv shows that are in HD are 420p or 720p

you mean 720p.. or 1080i.... 420.. HA.. that reminds me... HA.

hella numb is hella on point in this thread.


I'm about to order that first one on that costco link. It's exactly what I've been looking for.

i just got an philips lcd hdtv 32inch for $850. it was originally 1000$, but it was on sale and on top of it, it was an open package best buy. im sure they got a good selection out right now. dont let these bestbuy idiots talk to you, especially those white dudes with business suits on. i asked the idiot whats the difference from lcd, plasma, and regular hdtv. the idiot tried to confuse me with big ass words and at the end said all hdtv's are lcd. fucking idiot. but yeah, open packaged tv's are the best way to go if you ask me. im happy with mines. it got automatic hd viewing, pixel plus, etc. from what i heard, lcd tv's have a longer life and are more videogame appropriate.

 

[hella_numb]

lol, ive been doing my research on lcd tv for a couple of months now. im still waiting tho for the next batch of lcd to come out over the summer and try to pick up some of these models for cheap.

 

[TAKIN NO SHORTZ]

[DAT NIGGA TAZZ]

[hella_numb]

just make sure you know what you sign for on the payment plan...circuit city always has 16month no interest deals. i got my sony 65 inch hdtv from there and paid it off before the time, no interest at all.
