Samsung F71 Versus Plasma

January 15th, 2007

It’s shame you cant borrow a TV for a time. We have a debate going about the pros and cons of the Plasma versus the LCD. I’d love to be able to actually run a Samsung Plasma along side the F71 and actually test the differences. In shop demos are always poor with ill informed staff and a total inability to display screens side by side.

You also need prolonged use of a product to really give it a proper test. Magazines are fine but I dont think they have enough time to really put a screen through it’s paces. For instance, the F71 has awesome picture quality on standard definition when playing movies, dramas and such but it does fall down slightly when viewing studio content such as the news.

Now, if I was Engadget I could use my clout to borrow one - but alas im not!
