As far as small TVs like that go, i prefer Panasonic, in my experience, they seem to have the longest life, and the features are always right up there. Where i work, we have ALOT of TVs around the place, mostly 42 and 50 inch, mostly LG, and they all seem to fail from the same issue. Every one of them burns in, which is part of the reason all the replacements we are now installing are LCD, cause they dont burn. The LCDs we have are Panasonic, and they havent been there long, although their picture is substantially better than any plasma TV we have in the joint. We have 2 Panasonic plasmas, one of which was one of the first to go in, and its been going the longest, although its now got a fair amount of permanent artifacts on it. The NEC plasmas we have there have outlasted the LGs, however they burned in faster, even though they kept resonable contrast. The LGs seem to lose their contrast over time due to the burn in reducing the brightness of the phosphor. LCD doesnt suffer from any of the above, it wont burn in, it shouldnt lose brightness or contrast, and does provide a far better white colour. Plasma and CRT direct view cant show a pure white, front and rear projection CRT can, provided the convergence is set well. |
