Question of Debby R : what is the best 50 in tv to buy? i have all samsung flats and love them but i want to change the tv in the great room to a 50 to 55 inch and wonder what Model is best
Answer by Mr.No0nE Brands that I like the most and probably best from least: Panasonic, Samsung, LG, Sony, Toshiba, Phillips.
Plasma >= LCD (LED is like the same/upgrade as LCD, so you should never go with LCD). - Picture quality = Plasmas are better for picture quality (dark rooms and better dark pictures/video) and viewing experience with little to none motion blur (plasma for big tv’s). (LED are better for tv’s around 32 inches or smaller/small tv’s for bright rooms and for bright pictures/videos). - Sound quality = Plasmas are better, but LED is ok too, - Appearance = I like plasma glass, but LED is nice too. - Energy consumption = LED’s are better (LED’s are extremely economical). - Reliable = LED’s are only easier to take care of so I guess they are better. - Price = Both are about the same price and it’s up to you to decide if you want a plasma or LED.
Is 1080 good? Yes. - 1080 resolution is better than 720 resolution. - Bigger tv’s are better with 1080 than 720 (If the tv is around 32 inches I would go with 720, any bigger I would just want a 1080 especially for tv’s that are over 42 inches). - Farther you sit away from tv’s means it’s better to go with 1080 than 720 (If you sit more than 10 feet away from your tv, then I definitely would go with 1080). - Progressive scan is better than interlaced scan. - Example: 1080p > 1080i - Example: 720p > 720i - Example: 1080i > 720p (because more resolution is better for slower passed videos). - Example: 720p > 1080i (because fast pass videos you be better off with progressive scan).
Is 60hz good? = No. - You want at least 120hz for your tv to play your videos.
Hz is the refresh rate. (Some tv’s have a choice what hz you can set it at). - It’s an HD TV-set running at 60Hz – meaning it refreshes the entire screen 60 times a second. - It’s an HD TV-set running at 120Hz – meaning it refreshes the entire screen 120 times a second.
FPS = frames per second. - NTSC countries use 60hz = 30 fps. - PAL countries use 50hz = 24/25 fps. (For not equal conversions there is more math to it, and there is 3:2 or 2:3 pulldowns that I will not explain).
For NTSC countries: - To display 30 frames per second on a TV with a 60 hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 2 times every 30th of a second. - To display 30 frames per second on a TV with a 120 hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 4 times every 30th of a second.
For PAL countries (you don’t want a tv with 60hz because that includes more math and bad effects). - To display 25 frames per second on a TV with a 50 hz refresh rate (PAL Countries), each frame is repeated 2 times every 25th of a second. - To display 24 frames per second on a TV with a 72hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 3 times every 24th of a second. - To display 25 frames per second on a TV with a 100 hz refresh rate (PAL Countries), each frame is repeated 4 times every 25th of a second. - To display 24 frames per second on a TV with a 120hz refresh rate, each frame is repeated 5 times every 24th of a second. .ect
(If your playing a video with a different fps, then there is different math, I used progressive scan math btw).
The hobbit (1 out of 3): An unexpecting Journey: (Prequel to lord of the rings): is one of the first movies to change from 24 fps to 48 fps (or 30 fps to 60 fps). We may see more movies do this.
I am still new to 3d tv’s, ill have to get into them as well. - All I can say is it’s good for very slow pass scenes and/or animated movies.
