Pinoy 0 Posted March 23, 2008 Hey, Guys.So, I finally talked my dad into getting a new HDTV for '09 and my Xbox.Hes a die-hard SAMSUNG fan, and so that's obviously the brand we're going to get.If you also have a SAMSUNG, I would like your opinion on it.We're set on getting this, - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16889102132but if there's any better deal on a 1080p by SAMSUNG, please post here.BTW, it has to be Black, lol.I dunno why, but that's what my dad told me.EDIT: We don't really want to spend more than $1,400.

Kelso 4 Posted March 24, 2008 40" for your Xbox? What the fuck? 19" non-flatscreen is enough visual aid for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Fohacidal Posted March 25, 2008 Your gonna have to settile with around 40 inches or less pinoy, I myself have a flatscreen sharp 52" hdtv, it does me wonders but set us back about 3k when we bought it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waylon 2 Posted March 25, 2008 DLP suck ass, in my opinion. If I were your dad, I would hold off and get the 120Hz man. It cuts out the traces. I think anything less is a waste of money. Its worth the extra money. Its unbelievably low on newegg for 1999.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16889102169 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Contract Killer 24 Posted March 25, 2008 Waylon is right, the 120Hz really helps with games, and if you watch sports/ action movies. I love our LG:http://us.lge.com/products/model/detail/tv...LBX__null.jhtml42" 120Hz USB Media Host, LCDIt Retails for $2099, but we got ours for $1799, its god like, no problems, no lag, no lines, looks AMAZING on my 360.EDIT: That was with shipping/ delivery.

Waylon 2 Posted March 25, 2008 yeah but they want Samsung. Samsung is the way to go, and tell your dad to get it at bestbuy or circuit city because they have no interest deals til 2012 and shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Contract Killer 24 Posted March 25, 2008 Eh, I don't like samsung TVs, my dad has one, he also has a fridge and phone and stove and other shit from them, but the TV's arent good quality IMO, but that's just me, idk, they just don't seem nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waylon 2 Posted March 25, 2008 dude Samsung actually make really good products. I've noticed from my eye anyway that their T.V.'s are better quality. I have a samsung monitor and 2 Samsung writemasters, which are great products. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Contract Killer 24 Posted March 25, 2008 I just said they make good products, except for their TV's I thought, compared to LG TV's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinoy 0 Posted March 25, 2008 40" for your Xbox? What the fuck? 19" non-flatscreen is enough visual aid for me.I'm currently on a 19"W, which is my computer monitor, for my Xbox lol.Your gonna have to settile with around 40 inches or less pinoy, I myself have a flatscreen sharp 52" hdtv, it does me wonders but set us back about 3k when we bought itAnything above 40" my dad doesn't really want, which I don't mind.He'll go for a 42" etc, though.My gaming room is small enough to make it look super big, considering it already is.DLP suck ass, in my opinion. If I were your dad, I would hold off and get the 120Hz man. It cuts out the traces. I think anything less is a waste of money. Its worth the extra money. Its unbelievably low on newegg for 1999.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16889102169I don't think I can push any more money than I'm already asking, unless I paid for the rest.Well, he doesn't really understand the more technical part of this either. Hes leaving it up to me to find the best deal/tv.yeah but they want Samsung. Samsung is the way to go, and tell your dad to get it at bestbuy or circuit city because they have no interest deals til 2012 and shit.I'll check out their websites.Forgot about the local companies -.-".BTW Guys, Sorry I haven't been able to reply every second, lol.Still no internet.1 month to go -.-".So there's clearly a difference with 120hz compared to.. is it 60hz?

Pinoy 0 Posted March 26, 2008 DLPs are good.If they were in my price range .About to check bestbuy/circuit city now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinoy 0 Posted March 26, 2008 Best Buy's cheapest SAMSUNG 1080p is $1,300. $100 more than Newegg.CC's cheapest SAMSUNG 1080p is $1,200, same as Newegg, but I don't know if there is any at my local CC, as it doesn't show up in store search thingy.

Waylon 2 Posted March 26, 2008 But get the Best Buy card and you get no interest til 2012 meaning you get none if you pay it off before hand. Two it makes your payments easier, like 80 bucks a month Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinoy 0 Posted March 26, 2008 But get the Best Buy card and you get no interest til 2012 meaning you get none if you pay it off before hand. Two it makes your payments easier, like 80 bucks a monthAre you referring to rewards card or like bestbuy credit card?My dad isn't one who likes to owe money so it will be most likely be paid off before 2012.I think he would prefer a monthly payment of that instead of dumping all of it onto my mom's credit card or something at once.

Contract Killer 24 Posted March 28, 2008 He's talking about the rewards zone card I'm pretty sure, because we could do that, but didn't buy there because their service sucks ass. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinoy 0 Posted March 28, 2008 He's talking about the rewards zone card I'm pretty sure, because we could do that, but didn't buy there because their service sucks ass.Alright cool, then it's not the credit card.I think my dad would hate me if I had to sign up for it.I'll see if I can sign up for that Rewards Zone program, and hopefully get the financing Waylon was talking about.
