LCD and Plasma tvs? And what's the difference between LCD tvs with FHDTV and HDTV???? :confused:


I am currently looking at a Vizio 42" plasma with HDTV but they also offer an LCD 42" with HDTV. :shrug: Which is the better tv? :popcorn:

You sure you wanna do that?

Vizio Review said:
With their new 50" HDTV model, Vizio says you get a 50-inch HDTV, a universal remote control, PIP, and excellent contrast for a modest $2,000. I say you get a TV with poor dark matter detailing, distracting false-contouring, a remote designed to operate a VCR, and a dysfunctional PIP system for only about $400 less than a first-tier product. If you like watching a superb picture, be sure to factor in the price of your disappointment. True, Vizio offers a 50" plasma TV for less than $2,000—but without any desirable added features, and with its mediocre picture quality, we don't think it's money especially well spent.

DLP pwnz!!!

I'd get an LCD before a Plasma anyday because LCD technology's been around a lot longer. :shrug:

DLP has the best picture quality, but they're about as bulky as a regular CRT TV.

Well actually I have changed my mind to the LCD model because of the possible image burning from the plasma. I learned a lot from that site that Aps sent me to. But as far as the Vizio brand I have only seen good reviews on their 42" LCD with HDTV. So this may be the way I go. And really, for the price if nothing else, if it goes bad, it was a fairly inexpensive lesson learned. Thanks for your help guys! :huggy:

From what I can figure out, these are made by Samsung. They did get and 8.3 rating out of 10 from CNet. I will check into them. Thanks again! :howdy:

I went the LCD route and love it. I was reluctant about the plasma for the burn in potential, and it was also widely rumored when I was shopping around that after awhile the gasses leak. Not sure how valid that is today or not, but I am happy with LCD for sure. Good luck!

Another reason to go with LCD: screen glare. LCD's give off much less glare (from sunshine and lights) than plasmas do. If your tv is gong to be in a room that gets lots of sunlight...go with an LCD.
