Hi Guys,
Have been following this great forum for a while and now, kinda making up my mind to upgrade from my old faithful ONIDA 21 CRT. (Which I must admit still gives better pictures than most other newer CRTs). In, in my quest over a past year - only one TV caught my eye among the Sonys,Samsungs and LGs.
The one was 42 LD 650 of LG .It is one TV I found outstanding in all comparisons.The price though was high for a 42in LCD at 65K ,so i kept waiting.
Infact, still today it is one of the most advanced LCDs that ever came in Indian market - 200Hz,2ms,DLNA,UltraClear panel. But, strangely the production is stopped and there's no eqivalent 2011 model too. But yesterday, I was suprised to see this TV at an unbelievable price of 52.5K in ezoneonline (must be stock clearance).
Well, there would be no doubt that I would jump into it.But, here comes the problem.I am of late started loving the new kid on the block - Samsung Plasma PS51D550.
This, model is an answer to my complaints about the Plasmas which were there in market and more.It is 51in,it is Full HD unlike budget plasmas, 21kgs,DLNA and yes,it's 3D (though I hardly care).
Now, I am struck in dilemma .Is it worthwhile to invest 10K more to get this?
Yes, I want to keep it for atleast 5 years and will the Plasma start losing quality year on year (I think this has been lot many times argued and fought, but still a paradox hyeah: )
So, plz guys, the owners, the experts ,and the laymen (like me) pour in your opinions!
Thank you!
