Television recommendations

[MoonlightandMusic]

Am looking for a 42"/43" inch flatscreen TV, but the few I saw today (mix of LG, Samsung and Sony) all had fairly shocking screen quality when running actual programmes, as opposed when running the specially made programmes they use to sell the things.

Does anyone have any recommendations of TVs that do actually have a decent picture quality?

Thank you.

LG and Samsung (we went for Samsung) usually come out top on Which. Perhaps the shop you went to had a poor signal shared out between multiple TVs.

I get a very poor picture from Virgin Cable, but Freeview and Freeview HD picture is sharp as a DVD. You can adjust colour, tone, contrast etc to suit your personal taste. The shop might have turned them all up to be more striking.

They all make different qualities of TV in all sizes, the model number has the clue once you work out how it is composed.

Depends whether you are watching SD or HD channel

Depends whether it is live fast moving eg football or static programme recorded in a studio

Depends if live channel eg BBC 1 or catch up or recorded

Depends if you are watching internet content through your TV eg Youtube, Netflix

The bigger the TV, the more issues you may see

HDMI cable

Dont buy a 3D TV

Just bought a Panasonic 4K / only comes at 40 or 50 though.

Great pictur and coped with the rugby!

Thank you - so now just need to figure out what the most consistent across the board is based on all of the variants!

Life was so much easier with analogue.
