LaserTV

there have been panels twice as clear as LCD for years .... it's called plasma

 

I believe one of the major selling points of "laser" televisions is a more 3D-like picture than LCD, plasma, or DLP.

 

I was just wondering yesterday what the 'next' type of tv will be. HerDTV? haha

 

name ONE thing that LCD has on plasma ?

contrast ratios = no
black levels = not even close
color gamut = no
viewing angles = nope
120hz ? = thats an LCD gimmick. recent plasmas are 480hz
THX certification ? = dont know of a single LCD that got the certification

Panasonic VIERA G10 Series TC-P50G10
- for $1700, there's NOTHING in the LCD world that even comes close
about the only thing LCD has on plasma is weight and power consumption

few displays can stand up to Panasonic or Pioneer plasma
about the only thing that compares to a Pioneer is a Panasonic (vice-versa)

 

1440p
they should have skipped 1080 altogether

720p x 2 = 1440

 

completely agree. I've got a 42" Panny plasma EDTV that I prefer to my 37" Samsung LCD HDTV. Before anyone says, "yeah, but the Panny's bigger," remember it's an EDTV - that's 480p max. Colors are more real, blacks are blacker, whites are whiter, no motion blur, more depth to the picture. When I get the funds, I'm getting a 50 inch Panny 1080p. Probably the 850 series.
