Panasonic one. my friend and i, we each both the panasonic one and havent complained yet.


for me LG is the best


either Sony or Panasonic make the best out there
never ever problems with their merchandise
this is my expericence


I don’t know which one is the best, per se, but we have a 42″ Samsung that has been great. Had it for over three years now and no problems, HD channels look great, and it’s been overall a great purchase.


My family just got a Panasonic one. I would go with that.


consumer reports could help you ; or goto your local BEST-BUY/Walmart store and they will help you


Sony.

You get what you pay for.


PANASONIC hands down. Sony is good too.. but more for LCD. Stay clear of the others.


Sony’s way too expensive compared to the others. I have a Samsung 40″ LCD and I like it, but since my cable kinda sucks it doesn’t do too well with that but it’s no fault of the TV. The HD channels are great, and so are DVDs. I’d recommend Samsung, but Panasonic is good too. I’d shy away from GE.


samsung and pioneer for picture quality and life.


At the moment, the two best TV brands are LG and Samsung. Don’t buy a really cheap TV, go for a Mid Range or higher if you are able to.

Hope this helps.

EDIT: Other people are saying that if you pay more you get more. This is completely wrong. Go out and look for the most competitive price.


Definitely the SONY one!!! You see, if the price is usually higher than the other brands then the quality is probably better!!!

I have a 50 in. Sony T.V. and it works great w/ cable too!!!


Just bought a 42″ Panasonic. My biggest recommendation is service,service, service. What happens if it breaks, who’s responsible, who picks it up, in house/out of house. Ask these questions. Panasonic has excellent service


SONY DOESN’T MAKE PLASMAS THEY MAKE LCD’S. Pioneer makes the best plasmas.


I would definitely have to agree with the fact that Pioneer makes the best plasmas, seeing as to how numerous magazines have any given Pioneer listed as the best plasma in the market. Sony makes the best LCDs in my opinion. Since those are vague answers, I’ll break it down for you. If you go with a plasma, Panasonic is the best bang for your buck. However, their color is so “animated”, it seems cartoonish at times. Samsung would be my personal opinion for a mid-range plasma, however, like Panasonic, they too have some problems. The contrast on Samsung tvs may require recalibration depending on your setting. Simply put, if you watch a person in a dark alley, it looks as if the color on the person’s face is painted in squares. LCDs aren’t great for moving picture, unless you get a Sharp Aquos or Sony XBR series. If you have the room for it, I would highly recommend a DLP rear projection any day over any plasma or LCD.


Pioneer is by far the best maker of Plasma televisions, but they are also fairly expensive. Without getting too expensive Panasonic would be your best bet. They have good pricing, good service, and a good picture. Samsung is a close 3rd.
