Seems I can get a 60" unit for $700 and for $3500.
I'm sure there are differences.
Picture
Type of Smart TV
Input/Output (USB vs HDMI and how many).
I knew everything about the latest tech when I bought my solid state RCA console set.
Actually a nice 42" plasma.
I've got a 37" Vizio in my man cave that I've had for years. Got it at Costco for $750 (back before HDTV's got cheap). I've been peeping some sweet Smart TV's in Sam's club the last few weeks... but I'm old, and frugal... and until this one stops working, it seems a waste of money to me. 🌫
Trust me on this one because when you couple it with a high powered UHD Bluray player it looks twice as smooth.
We got a 4k tv in our conference room mainly for clear text rendering. As far as tv and movies?
Meh... We're long past good enough.
Plasma's are pretty ancient tech though, the burn in sucks. So you need a new tv for sure.
Better off focusing on good audio IMO.
I'll agree with JJA though, the higher the framerate the better. I'd rather have a 120 HZ 1080p personally.
This is the one I have. Ultra sharp and seamless action. Great user interface.
Hoping t-gerbs weighs in soon.
looking to replace the 13" Toshiba b&w I bought with Bar Mitzvah money in 1966.

I got mine for bundled with a 4K Samsung Blue Ray player for $2300 plus tax.
This is the first HDTV TV I've ever bought. College football games are life-like. Was apprehensive at first, but now I can't believe I didn't buy one sooner.
I still remember UHF with rabbit ears, and a bit of tin foil for enhanced reception.

Or FGM?.....
My two 55" plasmas run pretty hot...but they had better viewing angles and blacks back in the day, 11 and 6 year old...they still work fine though...
Do the latest LED's produce less heat?

I don't notice any heat with mine. Viewing angles are great as well. Then again it's a top of the line TV.
I'm interested, as well. Page the other TG... he'll know. Maybe even have a recommendation.
Not anymore my friend. Stopped keeping up with it when I left the tech manufacturing industry a few years ago.
Yes. The latest LED's produce less heat. At least mine do compared to my older plasma set.
On a side note for anyone looking to go to a 4K set. Make sure that your whole signal chain is 4K compatible. 🌫
