Thanks nibblerizer for the link.  Good explanation from wikipedia. Progressive scan, especially at 1080p, is what the buyer should look for in his purchase of slim TV. After all the price between 1080i and 1080p is just a few thousand pesos apart.

Sir Nemesis, pa pm naman ng price mo ng pana tx-32lx70 and Panasonic 42pv70H. I've been following several threads here and that you recommend panasonic vs sony. I'm very interested in those unit kc. thanks very much in advance sir.

[singlespeed]

please help me decide between an apple and an orange. i had previously narrowed down my choice to a panasonic 42PV70H. and then i found this Samsung LA40N81BX. the price on the sammy made me think twice. the wife wants to go for the full hd lcd but i'm still biased to the plasma owing to the rave it is getting back at home as well as here (i'm in Singapore).

here's the side-by-side comparison:
panny TH-42PV70H          sammy LA40N81BX
hd ready plasma              full hd LCD
1024x768                       1920x1080
42"                               40"
PHP 59821.5                   PHP 68371.5  (based on 28.5 Philippine Pesos  to 1 Singapore Dollar)
freebies:                        freebies:
hdmi dvd player               samsung 4gb mp3 player
5.7k voucher                  5.7k voucher

intended use:
-SD cable tv (most of the time)
-ordinary dvd movies
-hdtv (cable)
-occasional console gaming

viewing distance: 4 meters (bedroom), fututre location,  living room: 6 meters

all comments and questions will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

for me, i'd go for panasonic 42PV70H. i don't like the response time of an lcd tv. plus you can maximize the usage of 1080p on 50" and above so i think the panasonic 42PV70H will do just fine. and of course depende rin sa viewing distance mo..

The value for money decision, for me, points toward choosing the Panasonic TH-42PV70H especially with the sources you listed which don't fully use the 1080p capabilities of the Samsung. I don't think StarHub's HD cable will use 1080p.

Ako pana pa din ang pinaka maganda sa standard DVD and HD film, wala ng mas black pa kaysa sa panasonic.

Yung iba maganda lang yung kaha eh, pero yung laman ma-putla. Being a seller for a long time its easy to spot kung ano ang maganda.

[Nemesis91]

Make no mistake sir, get the pana.

I'm a seller of both units, what i can say is pana has more advantage than samsung lcd's. 10 is to one.
