How to turn an old bluetooth earpiece into an adapter for my tv?

led tv problems image

Kameron

Something I would like to be able to do is connect my Samsung Galaxy SII to my 40 inch Toshiba LED tv.

The problem is my tv doesn't have bluetooth, and I don't like the idea of having to spend 30-50 dollars right now for a proper adapter. So I had a couple questions.

So my first question was if one of these tiny cheap adapters would allow me to watch video, listen to music, etc. (or maybe even see everything I'm doing on my phone?) from my phone, if I plugged it into my tv. It seems like it is only used to connect devices like a wireless mouse or keyboard to computers, would it work for what I need?
Link: http://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-USB-Micro-Adapter-Dongle/dp/B001EBE1LI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1353472039&sr=8-2&keywords=Bluetooth+adapter

My next question is as follows. Could I turn an old bluetooth earpiece, made for a cellphone, into an adapter for my tv? I know it would take some modifying....if it's even possible.... But if it is how would I do this?

Thank you for reading!

Answer
That adapter is for a PC which can run drivers and a Bluetooth Stack.

What you want is an Bluetooth audio transmitter (plugs into TV audio out) . But you need one you can pair to BT headsets.

But if you want to watch video on your phone, you get a Slingbox or similar device and hook to your TV source box. Bluetooth and your TV is not involved.

How can I get the third monitor to work?

Nic

My graphics card is the XFX Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition. I am capable of running two monitors, an HDMI device, and 2 Minidisplay port devices. I just recieved my HDMI to Minidisplay Port adapter. I even have a DVI to HDMI adapter for monitor # 2. I'd like to be able to run both monitors and LED TV. Problem is, when I get two to work, the other monitor won't even come on. When I attempt to extend its display to my desktop, it says "unable to save changes." When I unplug my adapter from the Minidisplay port, both primary monitor and tv go off, but the second monitor comes on, and vice versa. Would someone be so kind as to explain to me how to get my third display to work? Thanks!

Answer
you'd better to find a professional team or CCTV lcd monitor manufacturer ( http://www.ddw.net ) to deal with this in case to avoid more bigger cost.

are there any settings that you can adjust on an LED tv to make the motion blur less noticeable?

best led tv and price image

paul r

i have a new Toshiba 50" LED tv with a 60Hz refresh rate. i know that the refresh rate controls the how smoothly fast moving images appear on a tv. But are there are settings that i could adjust for example the sharpness, noise reduction, edge enhancement that would make the motion blur less noticeable.

Answer
NO. This is a common issue with all LCD or LED tv that has a refresh rate of 60HZ. To reduce the blur motion you need the faster refresh rate of at less 120HZ. You can not change the refresh rate of the tv after you purchase one. Also, some bargain price tv will also have lag between video and audio, this is due to the slower response time fo the tv. Hope this will help you out.

What are the differences between the normal ps3 and the ps3 slim.Can we say that one is better than the other?

best selling led tv in japan image

michalis_r

Also, if you know, Is there going to be a PS3 special edition of Final Fantasy XIII in europe, and how is it gonna look like? like the japanese one?
Also is their even the slightest change of the graphics?

Answer
Same as he said, power, efficiency, style, size etc. have changed
the thing is that i got the old style but wouldn't change it. yes it's a little heavier and bigger but the gloss finish goes with most LCD/LED TV except for some Bravia's (sony) will a rough finish, then i would get the rough slim line but power really isn't that much higher do to similar components.
The touch controls are more sleek compared to the old button style on the new slim.
The standard hard drive for the old style was at highest 80gb compared to the 250gb of the slim but i've seen a 1tb (terabyte) hard drive on ebay for £80-£100 which would make it 4 times bigger.
and on Failure, mine hasn't broke once and nor has any of my friends, all got old style except 1(xmas).
and no, they don't sell the old style new anymore but you could be lucky to find cheap clearance stock (which i would jump at the chance) but good second hand ones are everywhere.
but up2you so take your pick!
what is rubbish is that japan have an exclusive white version which looks so stylish and modern (light and bright too)

What kind of energy is found In a candle burning and a spring being stretched ?

Morgan

Answer
There are many kind of energy lide solar energy winenergy.In Photovoltaic solar home systems (SHS) in rural provided by Nepalese solar company with government subsidy and avoid the smoke and fire risk of kerosene lamps and bring major benefits to users, including
Clean, bright light, radio, TV and phones. Solar-powered lights and phones were of
crucial importance in cyclone . when there were widespread power cuts on the
mains. The large number of SHS installations has been achieved by enabling users to
purchase their systems on micro-credit with affordable terms, tailored to their specific
Needs, and providing local service. Funding for the micro-credit system

Solar Home Systems
Solar-home-systems (SHS) are small. They consist of a
Photovoltaic (PV) module, which generates electricity from sunlight; a rechargeable
Battery, which stores electricity so that it can be used during both day and night; a
Charge controller, which prevents the battery from being over-charged or deep, discharged;
Fluorescent lamps;
Imported from Kyocera in Japan. Initially the rated PV capacity varied from 40 to 120
Wp, with a 40 Wp system powering about four lamps for four hours per day, as well as
radio, phone-charger and TV on larger systems. To make the SHS affordable to poorer
households, smaller systems based on 10 to 20 Wp modules are now available as well,
using low-power LED lights.

Benefits of Alternative Energy (Solar)
Environmental benefits of Solar There is a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the use of such large
numbers of SHS. An early survey carried out by the Finance Ministry found that
Households using an SHS save about 12 liters/month of kerosene, which is equivalent to
about 375 kg/year CO

is 500 kg/year CO
Biogas systems and stoves also reduce the consumption of unsustainable fuelwood,

savings, assuming 20 kg/month saved per stove and 40 kg/month per biogas plant, are

What is the best tv for me?

best led tv 100hz image

Adam76

Looking for a 34-40 inch hd lcd, led, or plasma tv. I just want the clearest picture I can get for watching sports. Any suggestions on what tv?

Answer
LED is a just a form of LCD. What it does is allows the LCD to have better blacks, contrast, and colors. While not up to Plasma standards, its far beyond what normal LCD can do. But you pay a huge price premium for this feature. You can get a better plasma for less. Also, it doesn't solve the inherent motion blur problems of large sized LCDs.

LCD vs Plasma

LCD - is the everyman HDTV. It is cost effective, hence its popularity. It is also physically lighter than Plasma. It tends to draw less power than Plasmas as well (though good Plasmas are now competing with LCDs). It has a matte finish so is useful for rooms that have too much ambient light which can not be controlled. LCD whites are a bit brighter than Plasma whites (but how often do you crank your brightness to 100%). LCDs are considered better for gaming (but I don't think you'd be disappointed with gaming on a modern Plasma). LCDs are sharper in SD (think evening news instead of film); this isn't a good vs bad, its just a personal preference thing. LCDs also have a bit more muted colors; again this isn't good vs bad, its purely personal preference.

LCD technology has problems with fast motion though. That is why you see ones advertised with 120Hz or 240Hz refresh rates (100Hz and 200Hz in Europe). This does not come close to Plasma though. So they aren't as good for fast motion (sports and movies). The 240Hz ones are making good strides, but right now you're paying a HUGE premium for it.

LCDs are also not as strong with their ability to reproduce true blacks. Their blacks tend to be a bit grey and not a true black. LCDs with LED backlighting are coming out now though. These are finally starting to bring LCDs to the Plasma level in terms of blacks. However, like the 240Hz refresh rate, you must pay a large premium for this feature at the current time.

Plasma - they have better blacks (true black), contrast (greater ranges in blacks/whites so you get greys instead of clumps of black and white), and motion playback (their refresh rate is near instantaneous much like old CRTs were). Their overall image quality is better than that of an LCD. While prices on them are constantly dropping, they do demand a slight premium over LCDs of a similar category. The colors in Plasmas tend to have more "pop" to them; this isn't a good vs bad thing, its just personal preference. Also for SD viewing they are a bit "softer" (think more like film less like the evening news). This isn't a good vs bad thing, its personal preference. Most plasma owners get used to it and don't mind it.

Plasma's are glass though so are glossy. They can have reflection issues if you are in a room with lots of light that you can't control (you can't turn off the lights and you don't own any blinds). And good Plasma care would require you condition them. But its fairly simple to do. All you have to do is keep the brightness and contrast (picture) settings cranked way down for the first 100-200 hours, then optimize, and you'll have an amazing TV experience.

Plasma myth (1) - They experience burn-in. This is inaccurate, those days are gone. Just condition the gasses and then use it as normal and you're fine. Also, the better sets have built-in features to prevent this (on top of the technology just generally being better now than say 5 years ago).

Plasma myth (2) - They have short life spans. This is another inaccuracy. Most are now rated in the 60,000-100,000 hours range. At 8 hours a day 365 days a year that would mean a life of 20-30 years. So do you think you'll still want/own the same TV in 15 years, let alone 30?

Plasma myth (3) - They won't work in high altitude because of problems for the gasses. This is again no longer an issue. Current Plasmas can be purchased and used in mile high Denver, and above, so you'll be fine where ever you are (unless you're living in the Himalayas).

Plasma vs LCD - One important note though is TV size. In 42" and above you see and get the benefit of the Plasma advantages. But 40" and smaller and the benefits are diminishing. So if your needs are for a smaller television, LCD may be a wiser choice.

Plasma brands - Pioneer Kuro Elite is the best, followed by Pioneer Kuro. But these can cost as much as a small car. Panasonic Viera is the next best and is much more cost effective. The Vieras can give the Kuros a run for their money (they might not win, but they are no push over in quality). After that I would look to Samsung primarily as a Plasma option. There are also some LG models that have reviewed extremely well (but do your homework).

LCD brands - I would stick with Samsung, Sharp Aquos, and Sony (but only Sony if its on sale, otherwise it tends to be overpriced). Sony stopped manufacturing LCD panels, they now buy/use the same ones used in the Sharp Aquos sets. Samsung is a step above the rest if you go with the series 6 through 9 models. The series 4/5 are strong performers as well, but a bit better

I am wanting to by a 40" Sony or Samsung tv, its refresh rate must be at least 100Hz?

Demetrius

Any suggestions on which model to buy or where to buy one? Eg JB Hi fi or Grays online ect.
I don't mind if it's LED, LCD or plasma. I have done a fair bit of research but all the 100hz tv's are about the $1000, and I'm just a poor uni student.

Answer
if you have done some research you would know that sony tv's are NOT that good and panasonic plasma tv's are

and i would get a panasonic plasma tv with 600hz with a response time of 0.001ms compared to led/lcd tv's which have a response time of 2-8ms which will make them motion blur when playing games or watching sports and fast action based films

What are the Amazing Extraordinary Friends on New Zealand television?

best led tv new zealand image

Kevin7

Answer
The Amazing Extraordinary Friends is a New Zealand children's program featuring the adventures of a modern day superhero teenage boy and his friends.

The protagonist is a teenage boy called Ben Wilson who finds out about a superhero insignia which gives him powers. He has difficulty with them, especially flight and using eye lasers at first, but soon learns to control them fairly well. His grandfather is also a superhero, and this is how he comes to acquire the insignia. His mother hates all the superhero business going on for the sake of safety, but his father and stepfather both encourage him, his father being the previous superhero in Ben's position, Captain Xtraordinary or simply Captain X, and his stepfather being the son of a supervillain, The Comedian. The position, it is found out in the show, has been held by many heroes in the past.

The villains in the series are Nemesis, a group led by an old villain and a recently converted hero, Ice, who used to be Blaze in her former era working alongside the former Captain X. The Nemesis group operate in a skyscraper office block known as Nemesis Headquarters and use computers, suggesting they have updated since the old times. A loose idea of a "new age of superheroes" is suggested throughout the series. They use stormtroopers with skull like masks and breathing apparatus. The Nemesis group have many villains under their wing and it is run by Renfield, the main villain in the series who Ice assists in his constant plan to get the ensignia.

Ben Wilson and his friends attend City Central College, run by Principal Locum. At school Ben and his friends are bullied. Often the plot will involve the school or an event at it.

The plot generally involves the insignia, the main target for possession by Nemesis. It is discovered in the series that the power giving insignia, which merges with a persons chest and in the case of Captain Xtraordinary creates a costume as well, is made of Unobtainium, a highly unstable element created by an exiled university scientist. Unobtainium can also, it is discovered, power a ready made suit. The insignia was created using the Unobtainium, which only existed naturally during a short period after the creation of the universe. Aliens claim to have made it and these resemble humans, even using English as their language of choice.

The show uses several minor devices from the classic superhero/supervillain genre, including tags like Nemesis Headquarters or Ben Wilson's House in the same manner as in changing a location in a comic book. Also background music and sound accompaniment is often done in the style of animated superhero series.

The series is set in a fictional city called City Central, filmed in Auckland.

It is currently being shown on ABC television in Australia on weekdays at 5:30 pm.

Season 3 was shot in 2008 but was not shown until 2010.

The Wired Chronicles, an online miniseries based on the show, is currently available to view on tvnz ondemand. Another online miniseries 'Origins' is also planned.

Answer
Via the WHO

1. American Samoa, 93.5 per cent (of population thatâs overweight)

Traditionally, Pacific Islanders ate native foods high in complex carbohydrates and low in fat. That began to change dietary habits as family members abroad introduced those back home to Western eating.

Kriziaâs take: I was floored when I read that almost 100% of the population in Samoa was overweight. I mean, itâs incredible how countries are affected by the American diet. Youâll see this as a recurring theme among the other countries on this list!

2. Kiribati (in the Pacific Ocean), 81.5 per cent

Between 1964 and 2001, food imports to the least developed Pacific nations, such as Kiribati, increased six-fold. Those imports led to a huge influx in fatty food and processed meat, such as Spam and mutton flaps (fatty sheep scraps).

3. U.S., 66.7 per cent

In the early 1960s, 24 per cent of Americans were overweight. Today, two-thirds of Americans are too fat, and the numbers on the scale keep going up. Health experts attribute the rise to an over-production of oil, fat and sugar â the result of government farm subsidies started in the 1970s that made it much cheaper to manufacture products like high fructose corn syrup, a common ingredient in processed foods.

Kriziaâs take: I guess Americans arenât as fat as we thought they were given that 93% of Samoans are obese!

4. Germany, 66.5 per cent

When Germany found out that it was the fattest nation in Europe, health experts blamed the usual suspects: beer, fatty foods and lack of physical activity. Like the rest of the world, Germans are suffering from an easy availability of junk food and more sedentary jobs and lifestyles.

5. Egypt, 66 per cent

In the 1960s, Egypt produced enough food to feed its people a steady diet of red meat, poultry, lentils, maize and dairy products. But by the 1980s, the population had outgrown food production, leading to an increase in food imports that created poorer eating habits.

Kriziaâs take: Hereâs another country that really surprised me a lot. I always thought that Egyptian lived off a Middle Eastern diet, which is usually known to be quite healthy.

6. Bosnia-Herzegovina, 62.9 per cent

Smoking, drinking and eating unhealthy foods spiked during the war that ravaged the country from 1992 to 1995. Those living just above the poverty line are gaining weight the fastest, partly because of the tendency to fill up on cheap processed foods high in calories and low on nutritional value.

7. New Zealand, 62.7 per cent

Researchers found that how much time New Zealand children spend watching television is a better predictor of obesity than what they eat or how much they exercise. The study found that 41 percent of the children who were overweight by age 26 were those who had watched the most TV.

8. Israel, 61.9 per cent

In the past 30 years, the number of obese Israelis has tripled. As in most developed countries, obesity is most prevalent among Israelis with less education.

9. Croatia, 61.4 per cent

Croatia is a victim of the globalization of the food market, which tends to suppress traditional diets as cheaper processed foods from the U.S. and Europe flood store shelves.

10. United Kingdom, 61 per cent

A recent survey ranked the British among the bottom third of European nations in physical exercise, leading Health Secretary Andy Burnham to comment, âWeâre really in danger of being known as the best in the world for watching sport, but one of the worst for getting out there and doing it for ourselves.â

Ok so the choice is either between a full HD 26" or HD Ready 32". Im going to be mainly using it for Xbox 360 and maybe a bit of TV watching and PC input. Which TV is best??

Ok option 1

Option 2
http://www.sony.co.nz/product/klv-26bx300
Sorry for wrong link...option 2
http://www.sony.co.nz/product/klv-32s550a

Answer
Bigger is always better, I always say. I would recommend you take a look at the Panasonic tvs, they are a better built quality tv than the Sony brand. They also have the best customer service support center than the Sony. I recommend you go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on tvs along with the pro and con of Plasma and LCD/LED tvs. You will notice that Panasonic Plasma is recommended in each price category of entry level to the high end. While Samsung, Sony and Toshiba (the top brands) does not (April issue). Other brands like LG, Sharp, Sanyo and Vizio (the next top brands) did not even get mentioned. If you read yahoo questions, you will notice that 95% of tv problems are from LCD/LED tvs and 95% of those are off brands. Hope this will help you out.

I bought the samsung LED HD tv 1080p with refresh rate of 120hz so can i make it 3d? By connecting my pc to it?

Waleed Ahm

My pc has a nvidia geforce gpu installed in it and is capable to produce stereoscopic 3d..

" but still i am confused what glasses would i need to make the 3d work? " please suggest me all details coz i am a newbie! Thanks!
Well thank you for reply!

Its the series 5 led and the model number is : Ua46d5000pr

Answer
You didn't specify what the model number of the TV is so that I can look it up. But a refresh rate of 120 does not make any TV a 3D TV.

Edit: OK I looked it up & it's not a 3D TV. So no matter what you do, it will not process any 3D video. It's a good high def TV to watch Blu-ray movies on, but that's where it ends.

Is it possible to watch superbowl 2011 on my tv via internet?

best led tv 2011 image

as2633

I have an LED with wireless connection, no cable. Is it possible to live stream superbowl 2011 to my tv via the internet?

Thanks for your help.

Answer
You would likely have to google around or find someone in the know who can give you an illegal streaming site at the last minute.

The NFL will protect the Superbowl as best possible. Its the big money maker for them of course. So they will be around looking to prevent that from happening if possible. They obviously can't completely prevent it, but they at least won't make it easily available for people.

If I had to take a guess at an option, I would say justin.tv, but don't know for sure if they'll have the superbowl or not. But its essentially services like that which you need to track down (I'm not really aware of many myself, sorry).

What is the difference between lcd and led?

jober939

I'm looking for a tv around 32 in. that is relatively cheap.

Answer
Both have a liquid crystal display screen. The only major difference between the two is that older or less expensive sets use a fluorescent lamp for the backlight, while an "LED" set uses a bank of light emitting diodes.

The LED backlighting uses less electrical power than the fluorescent lamp. There are two versions, "edge" lighting and "full matrix." Edge-lit sets can be very thin. Full matrix sets allow for "local dimming," which can bring improved contrast in specific areas of the screen.

New for 2011: some of the latest model edge-lit sets also provide for a certain degree of local dimming.

However, don't look for a *major* difference in picture quality. The HD picture on an "LED" set will be difficult to distinguish from a very good conventional LCD set.

best led tv 47 image

Anthony

Hello everyone! I just recently purchased a new LG 47" LN5700 LED/LED TV and I'm very excited about it. My friend suggested that I get a sound bar or a surround sound system, however, I already have a Yamaha 5830 sound receiver and Bose 201V speakers that are a few years old, but still work great.

How can I get SL to work using a big screen TV?

Julian

I just got new TV, so I thought it'd be fun to make it my monitor along with everything else. So I hooked it up via HDMI and it works perfectly. Only issue is, when I try to run Second Life, a viewer based MMO, it doesn't load responsively. It will load properly but at the login screen, it will be completely unresponsive. I think it may be a resolution problem, but I don't know for certain. It works perfectly fine on my 19" monitor, so moving up to a 47" led tv apparently makes it go wacky. If anyone can help, I'd REALLY appreciate it.

Answer
i don't sure this will help you or not. when you set the monitor. you can set the resolution & Screen refresh rate. May be refresh rate not compatible?

Are clicking sounds from the back of an LED TV normal?

best led tv at costco image

I purchased the TV less than a month ago and last week began to hear a clicking noise coming from the back of the TV. Now, I hear the noise every time the TV is on. Is this a normal function of the TV?

Answer
Definitely not normal, and a potential serious problem. Since you've had the set less than a month, it should be within the return period of the store where you bought it. Contact them immediately, explain what's happening, and see if you can return it for an exchange or refund. If you bought it at certain stores (Target, Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, and under certain circumstances, Best Buy) and have had it less than 30 days (90 days at Costco and Sam's Club) you can take it back for full credit.

What is the difference between brands of hd tvs that have the same specs but different prices?

also what is the difference and what is better plasma, led, lcd? Will the tv come with everything i need to get broadcast hd? What is 720 vs 1080?

Answer
A few things to check to select a set (other than the size that will work for your room layout):

Check the colors. Some sets have more brilliant colors than others.
Walk to the side of the set. Some sets have a very narrow "angle of view". Others can be seen clearly until you're so far to the side that you can't see the screen.
Check the features. Do you want to be able to connect your computer to the TV, to use it as a giant monitor? Do you want to be able to use your stereo to get better sound? Do you want a built-in DVD player. (Generally a bad idea unless the player is consumer-replaceable.)
Check prices for the same model from a few places. Buying locally costs sales tax. Buying on-line may cost shipping. Look at clubs. Even with the membership fee, BJs, Sams or Costco may be cheaper.

720 is lower definition than 1080. In a smaller set you'll never see the difference. In a larger set (40" or more) you may notice the difference - most people don't.

The TV will come with everything but an antenna and the cable to connect the antenna to the TV.

Can I transport LED TV in freezing condition?

led tv transport image

Tsoomoo

I've just bought Samsung 46" LED TV/UN46C6300SF/ and I have to be transport it by ground cargo in freezing condition.
Is it possible or not?

Answer
That is not a LED TV. It's an LCD TV with a LED back light. So, all the rules of LCD TVs apply here.

The TV should not be allowed to freeze. Freezing could cause the LCD cells to rupture. If it's packed well and inside a truck, it may be OK. I would purchase insurance. Also, allow the TV to sit in it's final destination for a couple of hours before plugging it in to allow it to warm up so you won't create condensation inside the set.

How easy is it to get a LED TV online on Black Friday?

best led tv deals online image

Anthony

I always hear about these great deals on LED and plasma TV's on Black Friday. 47" TV's go for $300, etc. I was never one of the people to go out at midnight on Black Friday. However, I've been hearing online is starting to carry the same sales that are in the store, except online. I've never had much luck on Cyber Monday.

Does anyone have any luck buying TV's or electronics online on Black Friday? Are there generally a lot in stock online or will you need to be the first one logged on at midnight?

I'm looking for a big screen LED TV and I'm debating waiting until Black Friday to buy it, however, if I hear that it's difficult to obtain one, I'll just buy one in the next few weeks.

Thanks guys!

Answer
One problem is that you may find a lot of lower end flat screens for sale at very low prices and if you wish to use a comp to link to the TV or to play or use video consoles on the TV it might not refresh or have the correct fast action movement responses.If you're looking for just something to watch TV then many of the low end make/models will be fine.

For example they sell a low end make called Sigmac stores have sold thousands of the 42 INCH TV's and most customers are happy with the product bec they mostly wanted a big screen flat screen TV and they claim it suited their needs.The same model won't play fast action movements very well unless you know how to adjust all the comp video card, TV or game console settings up properly according to the different file formats or games etc.

What I've found is here in Canada Black Fri sales seem to be the best prices according to Xmas and Boxing Day sales etc.I've seen Walmarts for example offer a 32 inch RCA for 168-180 bucks but you have to be at the store way before they open and then you'll be asked what items you may wish to buy and then be given a slip that is for say the TV you want.This means they might only have 10-20 of these models in stock and as little as one of another TV that is on sale for some great price of 500 bucks etc.Now online the main warehouse may have a lot more in stock but of course first customers to place their orders will get the best results.I've also seen free shipping offered especially if you live in the United States and are ordering from a USA site.

Personally what I'd recommend is that you make up a list of all you want to use the new TV for and then figure out if the specs of the TV's you might wish to buy. List and compare and the different makes/models features, ports and over all specs. For example you may wish to have a fast refresh rate and some models will only be 60hz and others will offer 60-120-160hzs settings or different ranges of it's Hz capabilities.The resolution capabilities are also vital so you need to keep that in mind and some might offer resolutions of 1920 x 1080p.Even the Contrast Ratio can be misleading bec it may indicate 2,000,000:1 ratio but the true quality of the TV might not match up.Next you'd have to consider the Response Time and it should be that the lower the number indicated the better Response Time.A feature that is related to this is Game mode etc of a TV.



Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way I'd suggest to look on different sites and in the stores to see what makes/models are sold that are within 20-40% over your current budget and then compare the specs and customer reviews to decide which TV's you may be truly desiring to buy.Samsung, LG,Panasonic Toshiba are all good makes but you have to also consider that every make has different models and some models are just too expensive or they are great for the suited purpose and some work great that are in fact in the lowest model price ranges.Note if you can wait then I bet you'll save some cash bec prices to drop on many Makes/models/items during the up-coming Black Fri sales etc.

Is it worth waiting for the January sales to buy a new TV?

Jackyboi

Or would it not make a difference considering there are always deals online?

What do you think?

I'm after a 47" LED.

Thanks.

Answer
There are so many makes and models out that the TV manufacturers are laying people off. There are too many sets available so there is no point to waiting.

The "Black Friday" deals are usually on lower end models - not the ones you might want for your main TV.

Go get the current issue of Consumers Reports where they do a quick best-of on a bunch of things including LCD and plasma televisons.

Is Vizio a trustworthy/good brand for a TV?

led tv 70 inch price image

Ryan

Im looking to get a TV. a big one about 70 inch. Vizio offers the best price and weirdly enough it has extremely good reviews about 4.6 stars out of 5 after 100 reviews on bestbuy.com. has vizio become as good as sony, samsung, etc? thanks

Answer
Consumer Reports, the nations largest and best "no advertising accepted" review magazine likes Vizio. That alone should speak volumes. I live in metro Houston. I own a 52" top of the line Sony full array LED and it produces an exceptional picture. I also have a 32" Vizio in my kitchen that I bought from Sam's over three years ago. It produces an exceptional picture. So far both have been flawless performers with the Vizio costing a fraction of what I paid for the Sony. With regard to repairs, should the need arise, there are a number of repair facilities in my town that willingly advertise Vizio, as well as every other name brand TV in every cost range. To think a large volume manufacturer like Vizio would not provide for repair of their products, in and out of warranty, is stupid, to say the least. It also tells me those folks who broadcast stuff like that are seriously out of touch with market realities. Last, you take a chance with any TV you buy, regardless of the manufacturer. If there was not a risk those best of the best manufacturers wouldn't need to offer a warranty, would they? Would you buy a TV without a warranty? No, of course not, regardless of who made it. Neither would the nay sayers!

Should I buy a Plasma or LED?

MINE

I heard Plasma has better contrast and doesn't get blurry, but has problem with light shinning to it.
Plasma seems more economical than LED.
Is LG, Panasonic & Sony good brands for plasma and LED?
I want to know the good & the bad for Plasma & LED.
Are they good for gaming?

Answer
You have heard some things backwards.

Plasma uses more electricity because it generates heat so it is NOT more economical. But the prices for Plasma sets may be lower, but only Panasonic and Samsung seem to make them anymore.

If you are a gamer - go for Plasma.

LCD panels for many years were inferior to the image you could get from a Plasma because of 2 inherent problems with the technology:

* Motion Blur - so you need a LCD with "120 hz" refresh to reduce, but not eliminate, motion blur
* Poor black levels/poor contrast - so you need a LCD with LED back-lights and regional dimming

With these 2 'defect reduction' technologies, LCD televisions can come close, but not usually equal the image quality of a generic plasma panel.

The problems with LCD panels do not usually show up watching sitcoms or dramas. But action films or video games with fast moving objects - these are the torture-test for LCD panels.

A few other generalities:

* The higher end models of LCD panels have faster processors and can give you a great gaming experience. But the lower end models show lots of motion blur even among the same make. Whenever someone tells you their LCD works great for games - get the model number.

* You can get LCD panels in 60/70/80 inches. But Plasma screens are glass and would break under their own weight if the size gets much bigger than about 55 inches.

MODELS

Consumer Reports has a 'best of everything' issue out right now and their rankings of televisions is usually close to reality. You might want to run out and pick up the current issue.

If it was me and I was going for a LCD panel - the Samsung D7000 and D8000 series of televisions have been out for nearly a year (read "lower prices") and have gotten great reviews. An alternate would be the higher end Sharp units. Sharp is not as popular but they have the quiet respect of some people.

For plasma - Panasonic Viera is acknowledged to be the best. Samsung makes a D8000 in a plasma, but strangely I have not found much reviews on it.

ALWAYS:

If you get a new TV - pop in a calibration disk or a Pixar movie and go to the test patterns and turn down the brightness & contrast to sane levels. This will help reduce burn-in and give you a better, more realistic picture.

Hope this helps.
