Peterocket Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I picked up a 50 inch Samsung 720p for 25k a few months back in Power Buy The 42inch was only 18k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katabeachbum Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 I picked up a 50 inch Samsung 720p for 25k a few months back in Power Buy The 42inch was only 18k yepp, 25-27k baht for 50" Samsung or LG plasma. Much better picture than LCD, especially response time, but produces rather much heat Power Buy in Home Depot or Home Pro or Central or Jungceylon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaliHai Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Where in the tropics do you live, that you need cental heating? just curious.. He is saying that the tv acts as a heater, not that he wants it to. I just recently bought a Samsung LED 3D, and love it so far. It has a small bezel and the picture is really good. I have only owned LCD's so can't compare to Plasma, but it doesn't seem to give off too much heat. Still a little warm to the touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentine Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Easy to check the heat as the display units run all day. I have noticed differences between brands for the LCD/LED units. Although LED is more expensive I am aiming to buy one of those, probably Samsung Smart TV although not 50" as I want it for the bedroom which is not too big.

When did i ever mention central air conditioning, i think you are confused plasma is unbeatable on response time, and hard to beat on picture quality and price. but does act as centralheating solution in our home 42LCD for misses beachbum daily cabletv thai soap and 50 plasma for me used only a couple of hours 3-4 nights a week for dvd movies and positioned under AC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
