  • Videogames = LCD

    Movies = PLASMA...

  • Ok something i do not get is i have a 27inch Sanyo t.v (im not to sure if its plasma or lcd) and whenever im under it and look at it from under it gets darker....any iidea why??

  • PLASMAS ES PARA LOS POBRES

  • I like my plasma because I never need to turn the radiator on for heating, the tv gives enough out :)

    Got a 37inch panasonic plasma, 2 weeks time also getting 42inch samsung plasma,

    Best to go for plasmas that have VGA, hdmi, digital optical ports all in one.

  • i notice a big difference between 1080p and 720p get 1080p. blu ray is the only way to go and cable comes in 1080 now as well

  • panasonics lose ther darks after only a few weeks...its a software glitch and a total rip off. dont buy a cheap tv-you do get what you pay for.

  • everyone watches tv in a dim lit room. nobody watches tv in a super bright room in which lcd would look better since its brighter. plasma is best

  • when it comes to plasma get samsung..........blows everything else away. Colors and resolution are best on samsung. plasma is cheaper then lcd but plasma is harder to find in s mall sizes but trust me...50in will soon be standard size. many 50in plasmas out there.

  • I have owned both and plasma is much better. you get a great picture at all and every angle. Also, plasma has a more relaistic picture. LCD is more computer like.

  • LCD is better for gaming cause you're not constantly worrying about burn in

  • The cheaper the tv, the more grainier it is? pfft

  • i hate the new tvs they suck ass. I have an old fat tv. and it does the job just fine

  • im thinking of buying a new TV, should i go for a plasma? theres one thats 50" 600hz and 1080p, is that good for gaming? (PS3)

  • @sephirotharsy6 Actually, it's way overkill. PS3 only goes up to 720p quality. Anything above that won't be used to it's full potential. It really doesn't matter if it's plasma or not imo.

  • @Zacccc51 i disagree, for that reason game companies would not make 1080p games. i agree that some games look the same in 1080p and 720p, but there are alot of games that use the 1080p to their advantage example Gran Tourism 5, Dead space 2 and uncharted 3, only to name some. i have both an LCD and a plasma, but i find that the quality and color is alot more vibrant on a plasma, therefore more enjoyable to play.

  • wait a FUCKING minute! That dudes names is Shamis!!!!!!!!!!! lmfao!!!!!!

  • Plasm is A LOT BETTER than LCD. But all the makers are trying to get you to buy LCD's because they make a much bigger mark up on the shit LCD's. How do I know. My Uncle is manager at a Best Buy.

  • im waiting for oled tv. i think this tv solves the problem in lcd, plasma and led...

    and i think this tv satisfies all.

  • my opinion here is both lcd and plasma is a crap!

    lcd = only for bright rooms dont watch it in dark coz your eyes get hurt... also pixelated and motion blur! this is bullshit...

    plasma= cannot watch in bright rooms. lifespan is short. higher electricity bill. this is bullshit too!!!!!!!!!

    led = clear picture but pixelated too and motion blur.

    i think that much better is buy only tv. 4:9

    this is so vivid and clear pic it wont get ur eyes hurt but radiation is there.

  • I have plasma, is the best.

    I m hapy with mi plasma ha ha ha

  • Plasma is cool and natural, wow !!!!

  • I like plasma becouse of the superior refresh rate, such a smooth picture

  • ya the difference is this. lcd has this blur. Like the pixels are all fucked up when some guys head moves on a tv. A plasma however don't show that. Where the head moves the head goes and keeps it's features.

    The picture might look like shit because the cables not hd, BUT the picture won't also add that damn annoying slight distorted look either. Now with blu ray, eh both the same. No blurs and whatnot. Games you get a slight blur when ur whippn around with cod but not as noticeable as tv.

  • @shade231 Bought a vizio plasma years back when the old box tv's stopped selling. Pane of glass about 1 inch away from the screen. It sits in the living room, faces away from the window, never have any problems with burn in or glare.

    I thought lcd/led would be the same. Big fuckn mistake there. I'm not sure on those plasma's that don't have the glass in front though. Maybe they glare? I know its fun to turn it off and watch the fireplace reflect off of it like an image on the glass.

  • @shade231 so which one gets the blur i got a 720p sony and the picture looked better then the 37" 1080p this is because i saw a blur but do what is your opinion on what to get plasma or lcd for my 360 ? thnx

  • @dannycsn blur is most noticeable when your watching regular tv. Mainly because while its all digital it has to be scaled from 480. It's just the way it is unless it's originally in 720. So while doing that and then transferring to your tv, your tv then does it's lil thing, and because it's lcd the frame rate isn't instantaneous like the old tubes and the time it takes the pixels to change color, you get the distorted blur.

  • @shade231 o ok ive been looking at the new panasonic 1080p ips alpha panel 37" they said that ips reduced ghosting but im not sure it still and lcd...and i appreciate the help

  • @dannycsn Gaming itself isn't as noticeable since the games don't need to go through any hoops really. But the problem that comes into play is the response time.

    Lcd is always gonna have that slight gap in response time. It's just the way it is. The pixels can't change fast enough. Plasma however is always at a constant. They're the closest to our old tube tvs. Plus they fixed the burn in in the newer models unless you leave your tv on for like a day on one solid screen.

  • @shade231 thnx man i just cant find a plasma in my price range with 1080 p but i did find a panasonic viera with ips alpha which is sopposed to reduce ghosting iono if you can tell me anything about ips and i appreciate you guyses help

  • @dannycsn Unless it's gonna be 48 inches or higher, that 1080 doesn't really show any difference. In fact if anything the tv would upscale moves and games more for them to be displayed in 1080 and it might look cropped. Mainly cause alot of stuff isn't in 1080. Not tv. Not even really games.

    1080 is used to fill bigger surfaces so the picture doesn't suffer. Having it on smaller surfaces doesn't really make any difference. oh and go panasonic. Others all seem to blow after 2 years

  • Plama tv's do NOT suffer from burn-in anymore the years is 2011 ...not 2007 it has been sorted now.. my friend has a Lcd and he tell me every time he comes over to stay that the colour is better on my plasma by far.. and that comes from and Lcd owner..

    PS, lcd has a low viewing angle.. can only be viewed from certain angles.. thats not a problem on a plasma.

  • @Vl0LAT0R low viewing angle? Maybe the lcds that were built 10 years ago, my 42" Toshiba can be seen from any angle in the room.

  • crt!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Get an led tv

  • Plasma tvs are the best you can get, my 51" samsung 720p plasma wipes the floor with my 40" 1080p lcd

    The colour is better, brighter, true blacks, and new models dont suffer from screen burn, lcd on the other hand is poor in comparison.

  • CRT beats them both!

  • @goldbullet50 i agree! much better why did they stop making them?

  • @blurworld Samsung still makes them, their latest plasma version is the 8 series i believe.

  • this video is too old to take as recent factual information now

  • I'm pretty sure that plasma tvs are best for gaming as well, you get bad motion blur if you game on lcd tvs.

  • I'm getting some jagged lines around peoples faces with my plasma should I switch to LCD..I play alot of video game like 6 hours a day..So I know it will burn out in a year or so and I've had this tv for a year

  • there are pros & cons with all different TV techs. just go visit a store & watch the picture quality on those TV sets you are interested in. not do as me , just ordering on the internet , based on reviews i looked at:-( remember , QUALITY COSTS !

  • Forget this, just buy LED or OLED if you have the money.

  • interesting

  • Hmm interesting.. but i feel the vid is missing a bit..

    For a good and simple overview explaining the main differences between LCD, LED and Plasmas in Laymens terms, try googling lcdledplasmaguide

    Cheers'

  • It's funny cause they actually plumeted.

  • they kinda both look like matthew perry

  • I can't stand LCD displays. They either have over saturated or washed out color, and they're horrible at flesh tones(the flesh is either pink or red most of the time). Plasmas have a natural and accurate color almost right out of the box. LCD is better for PC monitors(as long as the signals a pure digital one, like HDMI or DVI).

  • Burn in is no longer an issue with newer plasmas that only happened with earlier tech, I play xbox and mW2 is great on my plasma because the swift motions look crisp

  • i don't know why they said LCDs are better for video games since LCDs have a lagging problem. Plasmas do not lag at all. They also didn't mention anything about viewing angles. Plasma TVs have more viewing angles, meaning the picture doesn't appear like a negative if viewed from a side, top or bottom position.

  • @SnakeStormTV I think because the videos are older, and older plasma's were more likely to suffer from burn in, where-as today its pretty much eradicated.

  • 1:36 DERP!

  • LED is winner they are most power efficient, newer, bigger, wont burn out, last a long time, are thin, and better and nicer quality, buying everything you can at this time is bull s***, LEDs are out, glad i dint get a new monitor till now.

  • @danydaniel12345 LED Tv's are the same as LCD's but instead of using a CFL they use LED bulbs which are yes more energy effecient and last a long time. I've sold TV's for 4 years and I still say I prefer plasma. Plasmas still offer the fastest response rate which causes less image blur which are found on LCD/LED tv's. Also the black levels are alot darker on the plasma screens.

  • @ronthegreat27. lol how do you know

  • LED FTW

  • Are plasma TV's still being sold? I don't even hear about them anymore?

  • plasma is better for sports? i just got a 60 inch plasma the other day just watched a game of football and there was haze around the players and anything moving.. especially in a high view, watching anything else is good! does anyone know if theres a way to refine it? or is that just the way it is.. i dont really like it!

  • Lcd is better for gaming? My ass. Plasmas way better 4 gaming nowadays

  • so far i have not seen any lcd or led tv that is as comfortable on the eyes as crt. THe problem with lcd and led tvs is you are looking at a screen illuminated by a lightbulb or led which causes glare. I find with lcd tvs it feels like i am staring into a lightbulb and with crt i never experienced this. Crt was far superior in many ways.

  • DLP IS THE BEST !!!

    2. PLASMA

    3. CRAP LCD's

  • Who needs a Lcd tv when you have a Lsd tv!

  • LED, LCD and plasma are all crap, I say bring back the CRT TVs and make them as light as the new ones.

    Especially when it comes to video games

  • @MrJohnFodor CRT's are great bu tthe way the technology works they can't make it light or thin.

  • should i go lcd or plasma?

    GO CRT you won't go back to flat again

  • @taltigolt lcd plasma is crap

  • las pantallas led van a enterrar a los  plasmas y a los LCD.

    la nitidez de los led es impresionante, lo que no tengo claro es su durabilidad

  • damn I've been looking for a good review on tvs, whats the best for gaming and I found it

  • the better tv is led tv

  • In the video says tha lcd, cuz the burning image......But today plasmas have resolve that problem, u haver to stay in the same image like 24 to 48 hours to burn it.....anyway remember....if your room is dark....better plasma....if theres to much light LCD

  • so whgich is better for video games

  • @MrNoturcheez LCD

  • @MrNoturcheez Personally, I prefer plasma for movies & gaming. Colors are rich, blacks aren't washed out, everything looks just awesome and clear. Viewing angle is amazing, picture does not change when you move around. You tend to get more screen for your money as well.

    LCD's to me just always look kind of "video-y", if that makes sense. One is not better than the other, like anything it's totally subjective.

  • lcd comcerteza quando se trata de games

  • When I saw the guy at the very beginning, I thought the video was from the 80s.

  • @astronivo20XX lmfo lmfo thats funny

  • @astronivo20XX Haha me too!!

  • @astronivo20XX

    lol man i thought the same thing too dam that hair cut and tie pluses the background oh man

  • @astronivo20XX lol yeh same

  • oops and I forgot to say the burn isnt bad at all on my plasma and there is 0 motion blur

  • This is from 2007..... I just recently bought a 60'' LG plasma and the picture is amazing! and thats not just me saying that, all my friends who have seen it say the picture is great aswell, and they have 45-55'' LCD's made by sony. But I really dont think that quality is a issue anymore in the higher end plasmas and lcd's they all have great pics!

  • LCD like a painting picture!!! its suck!!!

  • Comment removed

  • LCD ftw!!

  • Plasmas are still the best panels out there, lcd's have been playing catchup for years but will never be able to match pq. Yes plasma's have cons, most in which dont really justify squat atleast imo...any high end model wont have nearly as much glare as most people claim (vt25, 8series etc)

  • plasmas have fixed the burn in

  • Comparing LCD and plasma is like the special olympics. Whatever the winner is, it's still retarded. Both technologies are rubbish compared to a Sony Trinitron.

  • @Davez621

    lol, yeah its funny. my SD trinitron from 02' beats alot of plasmas and lcds i have since. its a flat screen crt.

  • @Davez621 thanks for the info but you could have left out reference to Special Olympics and being still retarded. I have a sister with Downes and was hurt by your comment. Not that you care.

  • Lol

    $10k wow

  • Comment removed

  • @howpow45

    Huge blurs with movement on plasmas.

    i would say the opposite from what you have said :)

  • Comment removed

  • @lead111 actually lcd has the most motion lag do a little more research plasmas have 600 hz lcd 120 big difference

  • just bought a 40" samsung 1080p 120hz LED tv fuckin bad ass, better than anything ive seen in a while

  • "Burn In" is so 2005!!. Nowadays plasma tv's come with big features that prevent burn in effect. Also the ones that create images at 600hz are less likely to suffer from this problem because their high motion setup.

    Plasmas are better for gaming and movies (action movies), and they not cause you visual fatigue. PLASMA OR DIE

  • lol this is when the prices on these TV's did plummet to like $1,000-$1,500

  • @Rhennessy91 I just picked up a 60" LG 60PK550 for $750 haggling with Vanns.com lol

  • I just picked up a 60" haggling LG 60PK550 for $750 =P

  • It looks like a screen door on a plasma.

  • plasma no doubt

  • Only thing wrong with plasma is the noise produces. This can get you into trouble if it is really bad. (Cheap plasmas) LED/LCD is bright and clear My Vizio M220VA 22" 60Hz suits my needs and I watch SDTV, use a computer, play games and watch movies on it with a stand alone. Unlike my nephews florescent 52" LCD 120Hz display, which I can see the camera shakes and other oddities that just bother me. SDTV is clearer color is fine and It plays my VHS tapes clear as if I am watching it on a CRT.

  • These guys said LCD is better for video gaming, everyone else says plasma. So which is it?

  • @brandonwade33 Plasma are definitely better for gaming due to their 600 refresh rate vs 120 on LCDs.

  • @brandonwade33 Get Plasma. The only reason not to buy Plasma for gaming is the risk of burn-in. That mainly happens if you play the same game all the time and the game has consistent still images. That in the long run could cause burn-in.

  • @brandonwade33 Plasma for sure. However I highly recommend you a 600 hz plasma, and thats the reason why its better. An normal LCD run the image at 60 hz, and a very good one at 120 hz. In english this means your image will be smoother and more fluid than in an LCD. I hope it helps.

  • Im getting Sonys 40¨ LCD Tv in three monts :P:P

    For computer screen. Awesome.

  • I prefer LCD. I recently bought a wall mount for my 42" LCD tv. I paid about 70% less for my TV wall mount at discounttvwallmounts. com .I almost maid a mistake and bought it at best buy. It was great quality and I highly recommend them.

  • our future kids are going to become blind after watching such good resolution

  • plasma will go bad in colours and sharpness in a few years!

  • @epicKiipa Another person who has absolutely ZERO idea about what they're talking about. Sigh.

  • Bullshit ! I swear I bought this year 3 TV's one Samsung FULL HD LCD the newest, and the Philips Ambilight FULL HD LCD Newest !! and another Philips FULL HD, I swear my sister has this old LG Plasma hd ready and the image is fucking beautiful !! and the tv is over 3 years old !!! when I add my ps3 to it the ''FULL HD'' tv's I bought for a lot of money can't even come close to the image that old TV has !!!!

  • @CopaBleyenhoek Because this show got it wrong on one thing... Plasma is the ideal choice for video games. NOT LCD.

  • @LoneSniperFox And in 30 minutes i'm going shopping with friends for a new tv, I need a plasma a good one and a bit big like above the 1M maybe a 107 or 117 cm... if you could recommend one, that would be awesome for my ps3 thanks bye !

  • @CopaBleyenhoek Yea sure. I personally own a Panasonic plasma TV. and since i live in the US its 42-46 inches.

    It's perfect for my PS3 and xbox. I play MLB 10 the show. God of War III, Metal Gear Solid 4, Halo, etc..

    The dark colors and Blacks look gorgeous on plasma. you can't go wrong! I love it so far and i've had for about two months now. NO PROBLEMS.

    hope this helped!

  • @LoneSniperFox Wow wish i could see it myself, how about the textures over persons is it smooth... not like those lcd lines i hate that !.. wich panasonic exactly ? are all panasonic plasma's good? hope i'm not asking too much... and I mostly play PES2010 and UFC 2010 and shooters like COD and Socom

  • @CopaBleyenhoek I'm sorry i do not have the model of the TV, threw away box. I know what you mean when you say you hate those grainy Youtube-like textures while watching tv. I think it has to do more on the source of the signal. If your tv signal is not HD to begin with you will have the grainy textures no matter what kind of tv. just make sure you got an HDMI to your source.

    When I play Blu Rays or stream movies on Netflix they look great. can even see the pores and sweat on people's faces!

  • @LoneSniperFox No bro ! we misunderstood eachother, i'm talking about the people in games like football players whoevers... the lines around with lcd it's like HARD lines asif it's cartoonish comical... But the plasma shows that smooth linesmotion... that's what i LOVE !!! it makes it more real to me hahaha i must look crazy !!

  • @CopaBleyenhoek OH I UNDERSTAND NOW. Well guess what? Apparently I haven't seen any cartoony lines on my tv! so Everything's smooth. I think the lines all blend nicely

  • @LoneSniperFox Well thanks bro ! you've been a lot of help ! i'm off to the stores now wish me goodluck lol ! bye

  • @CopaBleyenhoek ......and I'd like to think all Panasonic plasma's are good. :)

    and you play PES, I play FIFA. lol! with plasmas you don't see the blurry trail on an object such as a soccer ball or baseball when it's in motion.

    shooters look great too. my Black Ops and Battlefield look good. especially...ESPECIALLY Medal of Honor

  • WACECARSSSSSSSS

  • lcd.

  • We have an lcd and a plasma television, the lcd looks better and my dad uses the plasma tv for his computer and has done for a year or so and has never burnt in

  • I bet no one has ever seen a Plasma TV that lasts 60 thousand hours or even 30 thousand hours with out needing a repair.

  • What kind of shitty plasma do you have to have to get burn in after only 30 minutes? normally you have to leave them on for days at a time

  • I have a 22" Toshiba LCD TV Regza and so far I'm impressed with the portable quality. Better choice than Samsung for a portable and flexible stand.

  • Both have excellent picture.

    Problems:

    Plasma, picture degrades over time.

    LCD, dead pixels.

    Plasmas runs hotter, screen reflects, is heavier, and uses twice as much electricity as LCD.

    Have to go with LCD on this one.

  • @wartarot Wrong.

  • @zim1818 I knew it was going to be a plasma fanboy. It's all true of course. Go to a stereo store and you cannot determine from the sets on display which is plasma and which are lcd. A bigger determining factor in picture quality isn't whether it's plasma or lcd, but who makes it. Stick with names like Sony, Toshiba or Panasonic and pass on just about everything else, especially Samsung, worst tvs ever made.

  • @wartarot Wrong.

  • im gong to buy a lcd led backlit tv. i think id prefer the durability and loose a bit of contrast and colour reproduction. even though the lcd led tvs really look amaizing and are so thin

  • i ended up getting a 42" panasonic viera for $298. :)

  • OLED MOTHERFUCKERS!

  • lol "LCD is better if your playing games because of picture burn in? i dont know what type of games people are playing, but usually in a game the picture isnt the same for 8 hours for the picture to burn in. i bought a 50 inch panasonic 1080p 600Hz and when ur done gaming... turn the screen off...

  • 1:58 Shia LaBeouf?

  • May come down a little bit more? You can get a excellent LCD TV 46" and up for under $1k.

  • @GarrettBMXes even less, i can get 46" for like 700 or 600$

  • LCD tv rule

  • @sonic100X Lol, ye for a simple pc it does. Its not a coincidence that all serious av shops sell plasma only.

  • who got samsung c650 40"?i wana buy this tv for games and movies.

  • @Sam3r26 I have been extremely happy with my 52 "65" series, I had the 52-"650" which had dead pixels.Backwards to my logic, the "65" is a better TV display, and more features, connectors. I have a video of the issue on my youtube site.

    So get a 65, 75, 85 set if possible.

    BEST!

    : )

  • ONLY PIONEER KURO

  • @Sam3r26 R.I.P ....I have a Pioneer kuro Elite PRO-141fd and wouldn't trade it for anything else on the market today.......

  • "Burn in if the kids go for a snack"? Fucking moron. You need to leave a plasma on the same screen for about 24 hours to achieve screen burn. Dosey yanks.

  • I guarantee you have input lag. You're probably just used to it. Do a lag test. It'll be in the region of 30/50 ms whereas the average input lag of plasma is 10-15 ms

  • No mention of catastrophic input lag using LCD for gaming?? Try playing Modern warfare on a sony KDL-40EX503..........You'll lose every game.

  • @jamesf348 I have a LCD HDTV for my PC monitor and I don't experience lag in any games other than hardware lag/

  • @jamesf348 LOL, i was was watching this vid in order for me to choose, im a gamer so bye bye LCD. Welcome Plasma! :D

  • @tavogx Glad to be of service. LCD is flawed technology. Personally I'd like to see LCD technology fired into space and forgotten. I fit AV systems for a living. What size are you thinking?

  • @jamesf348 I just bought a LG 60in plasma tv, is the break in period for plasma 100 or 200 hours? Ive only been watching blu rays, and dvds that dont have any letter bars. Any advice on preventing burn in after the break in period. thanks

  • @LBGreenthumb Generally 200 hrs. Use the Tv on a warm tint for the duration of burn in. In pic settings. Then switch back to normal colour tint when week or so is up. Then use following-

    contrast- 55%

    Brightness- 50-55%

    sharpness- 30-35%

    You will get image retention after watching a film with the letterbox bars, but they'll only be noticeable on a total black screen ie, switching it off. They disappear after 5/10 mins

  • @jamesf348 Current setup for break in period I am using - Contrast-50, Brightness-50, Sharpness-40, Warm Tint. would you recommend running the "white wash" after running movies with letter bars after the break in period? Also one of my favorite movies is Amadeus which is 3 hours long and has letter bars, could that length of time cause "Burn In". Thanks for the help, I want this tv to last me a long time.

  • @jamesf348 Well.. i was thinking in 50" BUT.... The guy on the store told me that it would be too big (and too hot) for my room (and it is not small). So... 42" (Lg 42 Pj350r) will be just fine for me :D.

    You seem to know a lot about this i will suscribe to you sir. And thanks for you interest :)

  • whats lcd ?? plz reply

  • @masteruploader1998 Liquid Crystal Display ..

  • @masteruploader1998 liquid crystal display

  • the prices did plumb!

  • thumbs for led tv

  • @gunveer1234

    LED still uses LCD technology, only thing that changes is the backlight.

  • @jcosby1 Yep. Don't fall for the gimmick. It is still LCD vs. Plasma.

  • which is good for gaming

  • @jattwhiskey604 Panasonic tc-p42s2

  • @prozack666 I have both types of tv. Plasma has a better picture. LCD is brighter which looks good in a bright store. Once you get home, it's a different story. Unless you have a real bright room, the Plasma is the better tv.

  • Noone mentioned the horrible latency the LCD has which makes it difficult to play video games which require quick response time. I just took my LCD back to the store and picked up a plasma. I am very happy now and owning people on bad company 2 again.

  • Acer is a noname I suspect tho I have two of them one works and one don't. Only an idiot uses that term against a 14 year to one 1 (one) observation then challenges it with not even one specification except that his game boy probabely works better on it. Back off fool!

  • 1.Led 2.LCD 3.Plasma

  • @S4ukk0

    1. plasma

    2. LED

    3. LCD

  • @mavsfan1000 4real homeboy, i agree with you!

  • i go with LCD..
