I would say Sony 40" v550. Goes for R8999 cheapest

thanks so what should choose or should i go sony like mm001 said?

Personally I would go for the Sinotec. 47" vs 40" is significant... On the other hand quality of Sony is difficult to beat. There is also a 5 year warranty on the Sinotec which is fantastic piece of mind.

I guess it depends on what you using the screen for and how big the room is, how far away you sitting from the screen... There a lot of factors to consider.

You could not make a mistake getting a Samsung.

Plasma. Trust me.

It is made for the uneducated masses JK

If you are using it mainly for gaming or as a PC monitor, it may be a good choice.

For you, obviously.

Both DSTV and Wii are SD resolutions. Plasma typically performs better with SD. Go and have a look in the shops at the difference between a plasma and LCD playing DSTV.

ok thanks i'll go check demos of both

I stand to be corrected.
Plasma tv's are best for fast moving objects, eg certain (but not all) games and sports
LCD's if less than 100Hz can be a tad slower giving you a flicker. what im trying to say is that: 50hz will be like scrolling internet page with a win mobile phone while 100Hz or more will be like doing the same with apple 3GS, thats more fluid-like.

but for most games, 50hz will do fine.
Cost is also big contributor in all these.
At a price of a high def (720p) plasm panel you can get a full HD plasma.
You really need to see both pannels next to each other to be able to appreciate the difference. but in most instances, the difference is niglegible

saw an amazing new LG at Audio Vision this morning. 37" Full HD (37LH50) 200hz refreshrate, mpeg,avi playback usb, hdmi, the works R8999, I might be tempted.

of course the 50" LED was mind blowing.....just like it's price.....

 

[greg_SA]

Not sure if it is true, but I have read/heard that the 37" panels aren't quite as good as the 40" panels... for that price, and if you are set on LCD, why not just go for a 40" Sony?

Neither, both will be crap for Standard Definition TV...

For SD TV, sport, and pretty much any HD (720p) content, this plasma will be best:
