On a 42 inch TV tou will not see the benifit of 1080P unless you feed it Blu_ray and then only if you 4 to 6 feet away from the set. 1080P is best when it is viewed on a large set 60 inches or larger. |

Blu-ray 2. Xbox 360 3. Playstation 3 4. Comp with 1080 rez output. 1080p has many uses. and most tv's in the $1000 price range have it standard. there is no sense in getting caught up in 1080p vs. 720p. if you are sitting a great distance away from the tv, then yes 720 has the advantage b/c you dont have to sit as close for your eye to process the extra lines of resolution as when viewing 1080p. MOST people don't sit far enough away from their tvs to begin with, so 1080p IMO would be far better suited for most people's living rooms where they have their 52" and sit 8 feet away. lol like I and many others will say. the top 3 tv's when it comes to LCD Flat panel sets is Sony, Samsung, and Sharp(in no particular order). Panasonics and Pioneers if i am not mistaken are doing the best right now for Plasma tvs. i am not as familiar with plasmas so i will not try to sound like i am. |
