LED vs Plasama

[mabhi10]

if led and Plasma are price similar which one will win ???

for e.g. lg 47le4600 cost around 67k with blu ray player while most of 50 " plasam even cost same.

Plasma is getting outdated now a days and new features such as 3D wont be effective there, where as LED have other advantes also..
My sugestion will be LED when compared to Plasma, there are various other reasons also...

Plasma has advantage of higher contrast, extremely fast response time and no deterioration of picture quality when viewed from an angle. LED is basically LCD technology but has improved contrast than LCD particularly if it has spot dimming technology. LED are now close to plasma in terms of contrast. However in terms of fast response which is essential for sharp pictures of fast action scenes as well as in terms of wide viewing angle the plasma is still the best. Plasma has two disadvantages - one is its higher power consumption and the other is its reflective screen that may spoil the fun if you have a window opposite the screen. So ultimately one has to weigh the pros and cons and decide which is better-- plasma or LED.

Thats a very good price for an led backlit TV at that size, but PQ how is it ?

Plasmas are not getting outdated. Newer models of plasmas are being launched each day and companies are incurring huge cost in research for eliminating short comings of plasmas. Still plasmas are better choice if you are looking for close to natural colors. At the same price I would still opt a plasma over LCD. For me the only draw back with plasma over LCD is more power consumption.

It may get outdated some day just like LED TV's will but what you stated seems to be confusing, 3d plasma's are very much there. But the whole 3d concept itself has a long way to go to be acceptable, bet it Plasma, LCD or LED

Also most Palsma owners opted a plasma for its lifelike colors and price to performance ratio, its a different bandwagon itself and it feels good to be a part of it

Imagine if prices on Palsma sets drop by another 15% to 20%

Contrary to the false rumors of the demise of Plasma TVs, the fact is that Plasma sales grew by 10% this past year. In fact, it is the higher sales in the small size TV market which gaives LCDs a higher market share. In the 50" and above sizes the sales are almost even in fact in the 60" plus category Plasma TVs outsell LCDs.

PS: In the 3D category, Plasma TVs, specially from Panasonic, are generally considered to be the best.

uptill now plasma was cheaper than led so is the bigger share, tell the truth u were never tempted by led performance while buying plasma then why is pana v20 series have so small share as compare to lg and samsung just because of price .

 

[sanjay0864]

tell the truth u were never tempted by led performance while buying plasma

Truth be told, I personally have never ever been tempted by the so called 'LED' TVs, simply because I don't really think they compete with a good plasma, specially not anywhere in the same price range. Also, I have yet to see any so called 'LED' TV, irrepsective of price, match upto the picture quality of the Panasonic VT20 series.

Plasma on any day, anytime..not because I am plasma owner but based on study which I did for 2 months....You might get tempted to buy LED if you see HD Content in showroom cause its too bright and tempting..but they dont show you true color..they dont show perfect black or green (OF grass)..

best thing to do is , ask them to show you cricket match or football match or check stork ticker in Business channel, you will get your answer..

Cheers,

if plasma are so superior then why did sony did not opted for plasma techonology .they chose for led.its wait and watch game.have any one personally watch foot ball match or cricket on dth hd ..on led ...i guess ????

Sony is not the world leader in displays, it is one among the top tier. Sony is in no way a standard reference point or benchmark as far as displays or audio products go, its like how people used to say earlier best music system are Sony Hi Fi

Who says Plasma is superior ?, in the same lines on what basis is LED backlit TV superior (apart form power consumption) . The fact is Plasma at that price provides very good PQ and natural colors .... period .... this is coming from a person who didn't even have Plasma as an option while buying an HDTV, couple of demos with various sources changed my thought process. I also went though all regular cock n bull stories of burn in's, power consumption ..etc real life usage of the product will bring out the truth.

Now for some facts Sony opted out of Plasma cuz they were not making any breakthrough in their technology, while others like Pioneer, Panasonic, Samsung and LG were getting better n better. Pioneer who had the best plasma range had their division bought by Panasonic that's why Panny has a certain advantage in terms of Palsma.

Infact Sony doesn't have any LCD currently in market which has a panel built 100% by Sony they take panels from Samsung (SPVA is a JV) and Sharp for most of their product lines. They then incorporate the Bravia algorithm to customize their display's. Their business model has changed off late with them mostly having products assembled and branded, their R&D into displays has reduced. The Trinitron days are over buddy ...

As i mentioned earlier Palsma owners don't prefer bling bling:indifferent14:

 

[abhi_jollyguy]

Plasma's are gud no doubt but their initial hassles like IR(Image retention) is like don't go for plasma if u have ppl at ur home who watch SD contents in 4:3. Where in LED's LCD, this problem is not that much.

For those who said that Plasma's blacks are better than the LED's LCD so they are wrong, LED-LCD is achieving very very gud black levels. TV's having SPVA panels and also there is an LG TV with IPS panel achieved awesome black levels in their TV.

All in all LED-LCD is the future. Plasma consumes electricity so much.

If all the ppl started think like that plasma has natural colors and all so OLED will never be in the market nor LED-LCD. Technology will become better day by day.

Hi
I'm sure by now u must have bought ur TV, but I personally feel Plasma is better due to its faster movement, higher contrast and brighter colours it cost is less than an LCD/LED, drawback higher power consumption and screen reflection it also emits a lot of heat

 

[allajunaki]

In a way, its a good thing that number of plasma believers are low.
Keeps the cost of Plasma's relatively lower.

So yeah LCD's (of all back-lit variety) Rule!

i have gone through serval review of ppl from usa in amazon and many had said that even company claim technology has change so no burn but real truth is phosphor is phosphor even after 100 hrs of burning many ppl including our forum have seen burn and green pixel and bleeding lines and heating up ,moving pixel..problems in palsma ..
plasma cannot achive black level as diming led as they get switch of for life real black..


(i guess all ppl are not arguing as purpose of thread is get deep knowledge for both plasma and led )

 

[allajunaki]

So, in the same tones, LCD is LCD, will always be slow in switching from OFF to ON.
Dude, like all other technology, there are some issues some might face, due to a defective device or design.
Local Dimming LED's have another artifact known as "Blooming".
A badly constructed plasma will have reliability issues, same as with any badly constructed equipment.
Ironically, I watch TS+(HD) and PS3 on my TV. The so called retention on my tv is for couple of seconds, and its hardly any worry (LG's are the worst offenders, and I have an LG panel). And burn-in is seen on worst of worst cases. In fact, I'm yet to see a post on Burn-in issue during home use.

Regarding the black levels statement you made.
Plasmas are self illuminated : Light + Color are from the same pixel.
LCDs : Light from a backlight, either LED or CCFL. Color from pixels on the panel.

So in theory ALL plasma televisions are local dimming panels, per pixel level (or to be precise per subpixel level, individual dimming capability per Red, Green Blue dot of a pixel, and the best LED tvs are not there yet)

Please get your facts right on local dimming, and wrt heat issues go to a showroom if you want where both plasma n led's have been running for a while you will be surprised to see when you place the hand on the set that the heat emitted does not have a huge variance, also we are giving +ves and -ves of the technology as owners, not as some typical showroom salesmen bent on hard-selling ...

Well its knowledge that we are sharing, grab it while it lasts
