Need help choosing between an LG, Sansung and Sony TV
I am looking at two 32 inch tv and am looking to spend between £400 - £450.
I've found Sony, LG and Samsung models that I've seen within this price range in a few places (it tends to vary a lot though the LG is usually cheaper). The Sony TV is Edge LED and uses active shutter glasses (sold seperately). The LG uses passive 3D glasses and is a standard LED TV.The Samsung is standard LED, use active shutter glases but can display at 200HZ where as the others only do up to 100HZ. http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-32LW450U-...6836183&sr=8-1 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-UE32...6836183&sr=8-4 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-KDL32EX...836183&sr=8-10 And please no criticisms on me wanting a 3D TV; one reason I'm doing this is for Sky 3D which I pay for (as part of the HD pack) but obviously cannot currently watch it, the channel can show good movies that are usually only on Sky movies channels (which I don't subscribe to). I also have a PS3 which is 3D capable. Advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance. |

What is 'standard LED'? - presumably that just means edge lit?

get the one that best suits you and what you can afford. But your probs gonna get the Samsung haters telling you to avoid them. I have a 55" Samsung 3DTV and watch SKY 3D most nights and its a stunning picture.

Standard as in full array LED
The LG website even states: Quote:
LED technology refers to the backlight system used in some LCD televisions. LG TV’s equipped with LED technology have LED lights around the perimeter of the TV frame.

Sony for reliability and quality.
Samsung or LG for "bling" and toys and cheapness, but the reliability is dire. |

I dont see the problem with reliability with Samsung TV's. If you get/go for the extended warranty then its fine. Although I admit that they can be expensive. John Lewis do a free 5 year warranty on all their tv's.

Sure, other brands can go faulty too. But the chances that a Sammy or LG will break down with an all-to-common power supply or sustain board fault are so much higher than the other branded products. That's the problem; and when it does break down everyone says "But I've only had it 'x' long!". I haven't seen anyone say "well, I knew they're a bit cheaper but not as reliable". Price is the British disease. In Germany a customer asks "How reliable is this set?" In Britain we ask "How cheap is it?" |
