Its a 32" and it has 65 very good reviews
I have baught quite alot from ebuyer and i find that their customer service is excellent
It also looks alot like the Samsung i have that cost 4 x as much allthough mine is 50" lol |
If you go for the better known make , you should get a screen with no dead pixels ... If you go for a cheaper , less well known name , you may get a second grade screen that is unacceptable to the better known makes ... Check the very small print to see the permissable number of dead pixels and their position and proximity to each other on the face of the screen ... It is in the warrantee somewhere as a sort of get-out clause ...
Some say three and some say five dead pixels are allowed ... These may not be apparent to the user unless he is able to bring up the three primary colours onto the screen ... If you find that you have a screen with a couple of dead pixels , there could be nothing worse than being told that 'they are allowed three dead pixels according to the specification' ...
LCD TVs are getting better and cheaper and in todays economic climate you should be able to get a very good deal ...
LCD TVs should come down even more in the future when the new OLCD TVs come on the scene ... These Organic Light Emitting Diode screens are only 3mm thick and don't need any backlighting so consume less power ... Once they are developed in larger sizes , the wealthy users will be buying these as they are not much thicker than wall-paper ... This will bring down the prices of LCD TVs even further but not for a couple of years ... I think these new LCD TVs should be called ''Orgasmic LEDs'' not Organic ...
Good luck with your shopping ...
