I'm on the look out for a new HD Ready TV to replace my ageing 28" widescreen CRT iDTV.
I thinking either LG or Samsung, so far.
I had a quick look on the Dixons (
) website last night, & the prices don't seem too bad, much cheaper than when I was initially considering getting one earlier in the year.
27" LG HD Ready LCD for £470something (27LZ55), 26" Samsung HD Ready LCD for £499 (LE26R72BX). No built-in Freeview for either though.
26" Samsung HD Ready LCD with built-in Freeview for ~ £580 (LE26R73BD).
32" LG HD Ready LCD, no Freeview, for £590 (32LX2R).
32" LG HD Ready LCD, with built-in Freeview, for ~ £620 (32LC2DB).
32" Samsung HD Ready LCD, no Freeview, for ~£630 (LE32R72BX)
32" Samsung HD Ready LCD, with built-in Freeview, for ~ £690 (LE32R73BD).
Seeing as the normal native resolution tends, AFAIK, to be 1366 x 768, is it actually better to get a 26 or 27", as the 32" would have the same res. but have bigger pixels?
Anyone got & can recommend any of the ones I've mentioned above, or got another not listed that's worth a mention?
EDIT: I'd be hooking up an XBox 360 (using Component or VGA), a normal Sky Digibox using RGB SCART ('till I can eventually convince the other half to then get Sky HD ), an old XBox using RGB SCART, & possibly later on also the 360's add-on HD-DVD drive. I'm not too fussed about built-in Freeview, but it is quite handy (I suppose if I got one without integrated DVB-T I could just buy a separate Freeview box & use it as an excuse to get a Freeview PVR).
