LED vs. LCD vs. Plasma TV
Forums › General Discussion › LED vs. LCD vs. Plasma TV-
What would you pick and why?
I like the LED and LCD but Plasmas are cheaper. Don't know what to pick. -
LED hands down
Better color quality, sharper pictures, faster response, less likely to fail with a dead pixel or burnt out light.
Don't know where you're looking that Plasmas are cheaper... Should be LCD cheapest, Plasma has fewer choices and only big screens a little more than LCDs, and finally LEDs should be the most expensive but trust me they are worth the extra.

Depends on room conditions and what you watch. Watch a lot of sports and have a dark room, get a plasma. Newer plasmas have become a lot more energy efficient.
-
Do yourself a favor and don't listen to advice you get here from laypeople. Go to any place that has a very knowledgeable sales person and tell them about what you watch and the room conditions.

Led LCD have sharper graphics by far

I have a 55" LED and it is amazing. Stick with LED. Plasmas are just horrible.

If u are going to be gaming, do NOT get a plasma! If u leave it on pause for so much time. It will burn that image onto ur screen. I have an LCD and LED and I havnt havnt had a single problem. My led has a better picture than the LCD but my LED has 240HZ refresh rate. BTW, if u decide to get the plasma, don't lay it down flat at all and then pick it up and turn it on after u pick it up. The screen will crack. If u lay it down, try to wait an hour or more so u can let that plasma settle...

LCD is old school well not really but compared to the others it is lol. Its lower quality compared to quality of plasma and it is better then LCD and even after they came out with LED tvs plasma is still a great choice I have and always will hate LCD tvs, I have both LED and plasma tvs as the guys above me stated saying don't get a plasma for certain reasons but if you ask me it's not enough reason not to the quality of plasma surpases LCD by far and even finally when they came out with LED it still is in a quality range of these tvs but over all if you got the money to buy LED go for it, if not then I would suggest plasma they are great for gaming LCD sucks for it compared to plasma. If you know your gonna pause something for a while just shut off the tv until you come back I do this everytime and it is not a pain in the ass to do so either.

Also yes during transport if your not capable of transporting it standing up and have to lay a plasma tv down then when you bring it in your house leave it standing up until the next day but for a minimum of at least 8 hours. Hope this helps make your decision again LCD is shit stay away from it plasma or led your pick.

The way I see LED being used in this thread reminds me of people calling an iPod Touch an iTouch. Unless you're talking about an OLED TV, which given the cost and availability I'm guessing most of you aren't, there are only two types of TV's being discussed in this thread: Plasma and LCD.
LCD does break down into a subcategory of passive or non-passive LED back lights, but they are still LCD TV's.
To generalize and say Plasma's suck is ignorant, even passive LED back light TV's still can't compare to the quality of black the Plasma's put out, they are getting close but there is still a noticeable difference when both are set up correctly in a suitable space.
I have all three types myself (even though two 'types' are LCD), LCD in the bedroom, LED passive back lighting LCD in the brighter living room, and my new 65" Panasonic thin plasma in the basement.

You mean the viewing area at Best Buy with all the colors and contrasts turned up isn't indicative of the quality of the TV?!?!? 😱

Plasmas do have good picture but I hated dealing with the fact of the room having to be completely dark or there will be a glare on the tv. The fact of how carefully u have to be with them just because it's plasma. I don't know if mine is OLED but I have a 55" Samsung LED tv that I wouldnt trade for any other tv. Everybody has different opinions, almost like people who choose Mac over windows. All depends on what u prefer in the product that u use. Honostly, I would just recommend going down to the store u want to buy it from and ask the a sales rep to point in the right direction. Hopefully u get one that will get one that is best for u and what u are want to use it for.

Agreed 100% the man, hands down LED and plasma are the best but my personal favorite is Plasma I hate LCD lol it's garbage that's what I was saying in my above posts
