My son is shopping for his first TV and wants a plasma. Picture quality is the issue as well as bang for the buck. Hopefully plasma will be around until they develop giant rollable screens that’ll have a better picture than plasma and projectors.
Had a friend in town this past weekend that was commenting how great the picture is on my 4 year old plasma. He just got a fairly highend LCD last year and noticed the difference at my house. It is timely to see this article because so much focus has been on LCD and LED
I heard plasma has poor side viewing quality,but better picture,unknown t.v. life.I took the low road and got a cheap 1080p, 120mhz refresh rate tv,42inch for 450.00 .Thats bang for a low buck.Dont forget to check lifespan expected.New stuff will come out soon like 3d.
I can recommend the Best Buy Insignia plasma, if you also have a sound system. The picture is better on our plasma, but sound is better on the Bravia LCD.
