Right... the Vizio link is the one I was referring to. It did show prices on their page but now TBD.

This. Though VIZIO is starting to pull ahead of some other manufacturers (see: SHARP). For the longest time, the thing that urked me the most about VIZIO sets was the pretty horrendous black levels. Their LED sets, I'm pretty happy to say, have solved this.Originally posted by Chris D
There is still a huge difference between Samsung image processors and that of every other TV I've viewed, including the top of the line current VIZIO. What is the difference? Stuttering during motion. 60Hz, 120Hz, 5-million Hz - I don't care how many bloody cps a tv refreshes at - It doesn't really matter, if something is moving fast as heck, chances are that a bit of a blur won't really upset you - though I won't complain if a TV has a fast refresh rate. When will I complain? Oh yes, when a TV cannot produce slow motion without excessive stuttering. Why is it so hard for companies to fix this issue? Even high end TVs suffer from this.-Josh
That feeling when things are finally going right. Yeah, that one.Comment

I have been following this display on the AVS forum and it looks like Vizio is pulling the plug on its release date. I am seriously bummed out, been save a few hundred each check for it :cry:
you can save yourself a lot of reading and go to the last 3 or 4 pages.
such is life.Comment

Well that is upsetting...looks like I may have to go with my backup plan when I buy a new TV, get a cheaper 52" LED LCD and then get a FPTV.Comment

Lots of people are doing just that. I think I am going to wait it out. My 62" DLP is holding up ok. When I go to my buddies house and see his LED LCD I really want to get one though, MUCH brighter and move vivid.Comment

Well, I do usually find them un-naturally bright, so I usually end up nearly turning down the backlight all the way. But other then that I think the tech is really getting good. I'd be happier with a projector anyways, 72" is awesome and all but.......nothing like 120"

Yeah, I always fiddle with the settings for quite a while when somebody I know gets a new set. Must be over 98 percent of flat-screen sets that are set up poorly and could look better than they do...Originally posted by Dougie085Well, I do usually find them un-naturally bright, so I usually end up nearly turning down the backlight all the way.

maybe when they start implementing LEDs for the bulbs. 300 dollars for a bulb that last 300-500 hours bothers me, thats a dollar an hour durn near.Originally posted by Dougie085Well, I do usually find them un-naturally bright, so I usually end up nearly turning down the backlight all the way.

My next projector will be with an LED bulb or I will move to a flat panel TV. My "man-cave" is small and my current projector screen is only 64" 16:9. A 50" flat panel TV mounted on a stand a bit closer to my chair, coupled with moving my chair forward 6 inches will give me about the same relative screen size--anything bigger would actually be an improvement in size. But I like the PQ of my homemade screen quite a bit, especially with movies, so I don't necessarily want to abandon a front pj. However, I don't want to replace another bulb at less than half its estimated lifespan, as I've recently had to do (my only complaint about my pj as I very much enjoy its PQ). So LED PJ or flat panel for me next time.Comment

Well generally projector bulbs last longer then 300-500 hours.Comment

True. But mine went at just under 1200 and it was supposed to last an "average" of 2500 hours. It's fine, I accepted that risk when I bought the projector. And if LED lighting for projectors was 10 years away, I might think differently. But since it is here, I hope it will be inexpensive enough when my next bulb goes to allow me to switch to one. Otherwise I might just a get a flat panel to tide me over until such projectors are reasonably affordable (to me--I know that varies for everyone).Comment

Well guys I told you prices would fall fast and apparently they are falling even faster than I anticipated! Introducing the Vizio Premium Series 4k TV's starting at only 1k for the 50" and tops out at 2700 for the 70"!! These prices are spectacular as these have multizone local dimming led... -
So I finally took the leap and ordered this tv from an online supplier. I was apprehensive at first, because I was unsure what kind of product I might receive since I did order the tv without viewing it physically.
Anyways, so the tv arrived and was packed well. The tv is a replacement... -
In the market in the next couple months to replace my Samsung DLP display. I had a great experience with my current samsung but want something a little bigger and with the changes to LED displays with blu-ray, I need to catch up. lol.
Im not going any less than a 60". I want to... -
One of the things that bugged me the most about digital projectors was the bulb use, and cost. Of course the improvements in projector bulb life and cost are much better than with my first JVC G1000. Whose bulb cost $1200 to replace and lasted 1000 hours. 8O
Outside of lasers, the most... -
I recently bought a 46" Samsung 8000 LED LCD tv. I previously watched a 3 year old 42" Pioneer Elite plasma.
I'm very impressed with the Samsung, save for two major problems: light leakage and a wierd video effect that can't be disabled. All HD sources look like your watching...
