sana they focused on OLED rather than UHD.. oh well. what do you expect from these manufacturers? bottom line is  profit ang habol ng lahat.. bigger markup = bigger profit.

mag backfire sana at mag flop ang push nila... UHD is not yet here, bakit nila minamadali...

i remember the early adaptors of flat screen tv tuloy... nung may mga 720 and 1080p na, wala pala silang HDMI ports..

nakita ko sa isang shop ng Samsun yung isang Curved OLED tv nila, i was expectig to be blown away by the PQ, pero parang hindi. o baka its the content that they were playing.

oled would probably have same as led pic quality.. pero the black levels of a plasma.. everytime i look at my oled phone and psvita... i drool.. and wish na sana ganito kaitim ang tv.

Just an update on my part, I decided to get the 43f4900. Didn't get it at 19.5k but instead 22k. Western Appliances ran out of stock and was selling the display unit only for 18.7k

As for the TV itself, I'm very happy and satisfied. I'm coming from a 32" LG 720P LCD bought almost 5 years ago.

Sir totoo ba tong nabasa ko... nasa 22k mo lang nakuha? Kasi nakita ko sa SnS facebook page 25k pa to.

Kumusta mga upcoming 2014 samsung & LG plasmas?

[greatauror28]

Bored nako sa 50" LG Plamsa ko. Im planning to go 60"-65" route.

Should I get 3D (i wanna try it) or will it be obsolete in the near future?
And since LG ang gamit ko ngayon though calibrated na sya, I wanna try a Panny plasma to see what the hype is all about.

Suggest 60"-65" plasma TVs under $2000 (or lower)

[mrclark]

Which Plasma tv is ok, LG 42PN4500 or a Samsung 43F4500/4900?

In terms of specs and picture quality.
Durability and after sales service.
I don't mind about the 3D.

And, is a SIGMA brand as wall mount ok for this?

[Clondalkin]

Naku, instead of spending 5,000 for a discontinued (and heavily gouged) and leftover VT60s, I would rather have the 3K Samsung 8500.  Yon nalang talaga ang talagang magandang-magandang plasma model na readily available pa, and hindi pa nagbabago ang price.

Baka sakaling meron kang makitang 2.3K na 65ST60 sa Ebay.

Not about plasma TV, but related news because of the Pioneer name.  After stopping its TV production, Pioneer now wants to sell its entire home audio-visual line:

Pioneer hopes to strike a deal by July to divest itself of its A/V business but remain in the car electronics business, which generates 70 percent of sales, Nikkei reported.

both are entry-level plasma tvs. but between the two, I think LG's 42PN4500 has better picture quality.



PS

I'm a proud owner of a Samsung 51F5000.

Thanks DTNS for the reply.  I hope matibay itong LG.
btw, saw a SAMSUNG 43H4000 plasma in Automatic Center in Gateway, not sure if this is a new 2014 plasma model.

I also saw the H series Samsung tvs in SM Appliance the other day. I think these are the 2014 models na. (I don't know why they skipped the letter G. baka malas ang G sa korea. )

[supermanster]

Sa Ansons Cash and Carry inoofer sakin Samsung 43H4000 for 23K cash. Oks kaya ito mga Sir?

I looked it up the net for the specs, mukhang mababa lang screen res nya, nasa 800+ lang x 640 ata.. compared to the old model na 43F4500 screen res is 1024x760+
I'm not sure kung bakit sila naglabas ng ganito kababa na screen resolution for a new 2014 model, kaya pala parang pansin ko mga jagged edges sa Shrek 4 na dine-demo nila.

[DTNS]

852 x 480 ang exact native resolution ng 43H4000. very low by today's standards. oks lang to kung standard definition lang ang papanoorin mo.

[supermanster]

Olats pala kung ganun ang model na ito, for its price na 23K, better off getting the older models na plasma.

Mas gusto ko sana yung Samsung na full hd 51 incher kaya lang kapos ang budget, nun pasko ko pa gusto bilhin yun sa Abenson.

[mightbeyou]

sirs, what plasma tvs are equivalent to Sammys 51F5000 since the said model is already hard to find nowadays...thanks...

May nakita pa ko nyan sir sa Abensons kahapon, buy 1 take 1 promo pa din. Ayaw nila nung separate, combo meals lang daw.

LG has some Full HD plasma tvs in their 2014 lineup. I don't know if any of them are locally available yet.

[mightbeyou]

thanks for the info sir...is the deal worth it...considering that i dont need the 28inch led...would i be saving much if i just purchased the 51 independently...thanks for the inputs sir...

looks like LG and Samsung will be the remaining flag-bearers of plasma tech.

if there's really no need for the second tv, getting it at 30k+ is a good deal for this one, but having the 28-inch combo is also a good one - big discount there ... if they would not allow to sell the tv separately, selling the 28-inch at 8 to 9k would be  a good value for other buyers

just a note - i purchased a 32-inch LG LED tv for my room, the model is probably top of the line on its class ... the Samsung F51F5000 is much much better in terms of picture quality

Is there a 75 inch plasma? LG or Samsung?

Samsung currently offers the 60F5500 and the 64F8500. Panasonic used to make plasma tvs in 85", 103", and 152" sizes.

Does Anson still sell the Samsung 60F5500, if not, any store? Anyone has an idea how much is this unit cash? My original plan was to go LED due to our bright living room due to sunlight, we just had a roof installed in the garage so direct sunlight got blocked. I hope this unit will be less by 10 to 15k from its LED counterparts.

I have no idea if Anson sells the 60F5500 plasma. try sending a pm to E-Reply (Sights & Sounds). they might have it in their lineup.

Should I get the 2011 Panasonic VT20 60 inch plasma or should I get an LG or Toshiba 60 inch LED TV?

My non-negotiables are eye strain and motion blur when watching fast-paced action scenes and playing video games. They say LED TVs are known for these two qualities.

However, the catch with the VT20 is that parts (panel board, etc.) are out of stock in case they get defective.

Would appreciate your advice. Thanks!
