Confused on 3D LED TV Models!!

Sandesh:
I refrained from expressing an opinion on the PQ of any brand. I do understand that each brand will have their own niche segments for various price points.

My intention is to caution the prospective buyer not to be carried away by the sales guys highlighting the other features forgetting the PQ aspect- and not to give too much importance to the smart TV concept

I agree 100%

I respect ur comment above , howewver may I ask u , whatever the lg sales guy told u , was it completely untrue and what is ur opinion abt the so called benifits he mentioned . are they completely useless...
if I want to tell u my exp, in vijay salesin yr 2011 they pushed me for sony, in croma on nagar rd, they pushed me for pana plasma.. In inorbit mall jumbo they pushed me for pana et50 led and same was in vijay sales in 2012...in fact in croma , there were 3 salesman each having their own agenda/inclination towards sony , lg and pana plasma...
I am not saying they will not have a vested interest in whay they are marketin for, but stil in my exp, typically they market the product depending upon the customers... Someone who is curious to know abt lg, they push him for lg, someone on sammy, they push him for the same...
Coming to pq, I think those in pune can pm me and visit my house to see my lg 47lm6200 after calibration settings I took from avsforum, I am sure u woll not be disappointed.

Ok. You are right. Each sales guy will push for his brand. Sony guys may talk about pq/motion , sammy guys will talk about colors/pq , panny led guys may push talking about vfm in pq etc etc.
But lg pushing is a different one. They push talking about cheap 3d glasses (polaroid glasses can be obtained for 10 bucks), touch resistant panels, free usb stick etc etc.
Can you tell me why you pushed yourself for lg amidst all the pushings? I am asking this because you said that after calibration lg 6200 was quite good. So pre calibration , what steered you towards lg?
Thanks.

LG PQ is only average at best with too many screen issues. But what's sad is they have changed nothing this year as well in terms of PQ.

In contrast, Samsung has made huge leaps this year PQ wise. The 2013 F8000 Samsung matches Sony's 2012 champ hx850 PQ wise. As for LG, I'd be surprised if their flagship can match mid range Samsung/Sony.

So true..instead of pushing for one of the factors of pq they are pushing for cheap glass..it's like people gonna buy 3d glasses every week so it gotta be cheap..

Somehow the LG brand fails to instill confidence in me ! Does other people in the forum feels this?

Dude. Why will I have problem with your selection.
But it is good to hear that you went to the extent of calibrating even before you bought.:clapping:

In fact the same feeling is shared by the entire breadth of the famous review houses like whathifi, cnet, techradar etc.

Sony can produce a hx850. Sammy can produce an F8 reference plasma,
Panasonic can produce a vt60.
But LG keeps on producing many 6***, 7***, 8***, 9*** :licklips:

this was my 2nd led tv purchase , so wanted to check in a bit more detail... Would have visited almost all known showrooms in pune
And I would love to hear abt their feedback on this tv, from all the video experts here with these settings ...few changes which I made to my test wasbacklight 30 and color 65, rest same is suggested by heavytoka,
I am sure many folks here are excited enough to do this for me , not for lg, like I did by visiting pana showroom to appreciate pana st50...
But even though I am happy with my purchase of lg, let me also tell readers, that if I wud have had sony passive 3d , I wud have bought it w/o any 2nd thought... I am a big fan of sony ...

I certainly don't hate LG. However, I do wish that they reduce the number of models and concentrate on bettering what they have. The sheer number of models is confusing and overwhelming. Sometimes, a lot of choice is not a good thing at all.

 

[sandesh1978]

I will certainly note this point and take it in my discussion tomorrow morning with Havis Kwon...
Dont mind, I m just kidding...

Even I had the same view about the brand LG. But, after looking at multiple TVs of different brands placed side my side connected to same set top box, I just believed my eyes and went for LG.

Ah. Atlast you could search for a review house that awards 8.6 to hx750 and 9 for lm6700 for hd/sd performance.
Why dont you refine your search until lm6700 is given 9.3 reference level and hx850 8.7?

 

[humveeguy]

Hi folks..
The update I got is, LG new TVs will be available in shops from next month onwards. Some of them are reaching ware houses. So, better to wait for 2 more weeks to see them.

I do not intend to do that...
But just bcoz u " The Dirac" is insisting me, let me think over it, one option I have is to open my new review house ...
by the way, what rating I shud give to st50, u forgot to make ur comment on that, as the same house has rated it at 1...Anyways, jokes apart...
Dude, u just take it easy...

Dude, if st50 was not at the top, the video enthusiasts would physically shred the server hosting this unknown review house, part by part.
Just kidding.
I know 6700 may not be as bad as cnet claims it to be (it claims it to be the worst performer earning 2.5 stars). But I have very recently tested hx750 and 7600 side by side for sd and hd at bajaj electronics. Though the differences wire minor still hx750 could be easily voted for.
Now a lower model 6700 beating hx750 by miles is a concern for me.

Now that is a more sensible comment ... But unfortunately every review house and every indivisual will have a diff vision ... And these reviews shud not be taken at facevalue, as I mentioned earlier in other posts,
Btw, can anyone test my tv lm6200 with the settings I posted earlier and let me know the views...I wud appreciate that more than anything else... I hope it is a fair enough request ...
