lot of TV for the money only 720p but good at the price.
Only really any good for console gaming at 720p. Rubbish for Blu-ray 1080p
HD nearly ready.
It's not 720p.
In other words, it can input 720p, but it downsamples it.
Yes like I can afford a 8k TV. The 8k TV will not have an impact for at least a year whilst the early adopter start buying them. They will become affordable in 3 years time for most people that,s why I took the plunge and bought a Samsung 8000 series whilst I wait for the prices to come down.
8k TV? well I suppose they have to think of something now that 3D is slowly dying a death. (_;)
What are you talking about? HDMI can accept up to 1080p but will run at resolutions lower than that and don't have to accept 1080p signals.
whatever the output of any device to ya tv, if ya tvs only 720p, its only gunna output a 720p display
hd ready down mean that the picture displayed is gunna be full hd.....
I have a LG plasma 50" and the power supply broke after 17 months, £90 repair, common issue according to google.
So not a good deal if you live on the IOW.
Actually if we're being pedantic it can take higher than 1080p (_;)
The Panasonic by a fair distance I would say - LG have basically given up on plasma and haven't developed them in over 2 years ...
However - I was one of the defenders of this TV and the panasonic X50 as i viewed than a decent examples of 50" TV's generally.....They aren't.
All you need to do is to go to any ASDA or TESCO superstore and they have them both on display.
As manay of you will know - what they do there is to split an HD signal between all the sets on display. I went straight to this TV and the panansonic and instinctively blamed the low quality image on a crap split signal and bad lighting...then i looked at the large screen full HD's which were using the same source signal....like night and day.
The picture on this LG and the panasonic 1024*768 TV's shows jaggies and is very dull compared to the other TV's.
That said, as with all plasmas, the motion was better.
good tv for not much money but a difficult choice when you see the difference in picture quality of better TV's.
I think it was fairly obvious what I meant, yes higher and newer spec HDMI versions have more bandwidth and therefore support for higher resolutions but I was referring primarily to the statement that 'all hdmi devices run at 1920x1080' whereas they frequently can and do support lower.
In fact, SD and over-compressed sources look a lot nicer on my plasma than a 1080p LCD.
Having said this, show me a 1080p 50" TV for this price and I'll buy it
The Panny mentioned above is better value but this is still a great price.
