My first 3D TV??

TV Expert
I am in a market to get my first 3D TV soon. May be in an week or so. The models I have in consideration are

a)Sony HX series
b) LG LM series
c)Samsung ES series

But I think the active glasses from Sony and Samsung may be great disadvantage for me. No doubt Sony has a very good Picture quality.
Also I would be using the TV for high speed gaming as well so refresh rate is also into consideration.
What's your take Guyz?

i recently been to one of LG dealer nearby my home and he showed me a demo of LG 3D tv.. the results was amazing.. what a quality.. i just loved it.. i went there to check 42inch LED tv but after seeing this 3D tv of lg.. my choice have changed but i have little budget issue so can't get that one..

He showed me 3D in two tvs.. one was of 42inch and other one must be 55inch(i didn't check the size) but the result was amazing.. and also, he showed me dual 2D and 3D viewing from two different glass which was amazing.. one person can see 3D and other one can see 2D also! i liked that feature.

What according to you would be the best one? 42 inch or 55 inch??

Demo all the TVs yourself. If you don't feel much difference in 3D performance between HX850 and LG, then get the HX850 as it has a 240Hz panel/Motionflow 800hz, much better black levels,color accuracy and overall picture dynamics.

@randomuser111... But he said that he would be gaming, If i remember well..
That means you will be easily watching it over an hour or two... That means, if u get an active set, you'll be seriously having headache n other problems.. I think passive 3D is best suited for you.. :)

yeah, Being a game lover, I will be using the Tv for gaming for quite long time.

And that will be deciding factor for u!..
IMO, Sony HX850 will be great with high refresh rate, good contrast ratio, better PQ, etc..

LG LM6500 onwards, the quality is quite good.
My personal fav, LM7600 has a PQ quality better than the flagship LM9600 (something of 9-series :p )..!!

The Choice entirely depends on you!

What's your take Guyz?

Do you have a budget? What about screen size? You should not arbitrarily decide which screen size to get because the size you need will be entirely dependent on how far from the TV you will be using it. For example, if you're only going to sit two metres from the TV, there's no point in getting a 55 inch TV. In this case, a 42 inch TV would be the most appropriate. You should sit 4-4.5 meters away from a 55 inch TV.

Aside from the size, if you are into gaming, I would highly suggest that you look into the LM6700 or LM7600. These TVs will be perfect for your gaming needs.

Let me know if you have any more questions!

LG WRman Sherlock, out!

EDIT: I messed up the numbers a little bit.

LG set has some high input lag, so if you are gonna use the TV for competitive gaming you should keep this in mind.

The LG 55LM760T further suffers with a more familiar LG problem: input lag. We measured a 68ms delay between pictures arriving into the TV and them finally appearing onscreen which, while actually not as high as some previous LG TVs, is still potentially enough to negatively impact your gaming performance with some types of game.

I am aware of the amazing picture quality in Sony HX series.
What's your take on LM7600?
Is it worth the price???

Thanks for the reply WR sherlock.
As far as the screen size is concerned, I am thinking to get it around 47" or 55". Though going for a 55" will cost me too much so I had to look into this as well.

@Sam22... I guess.. Yes.. LM7600 is definitely worth its price.. If you can get it with some discount, you are at a profit, man!

Visited a LG shoppe located near my home in Laxmi Nagar(Delhi). LM7600 wasn't in the stock there so wasn't able to get the demo of the same. Got a look at LM6200 and LM6400 and they were quite good.
The salesguy present in the shop also told me about the current offers available on the LG 3D TV but wasn't able to tell the more details in brief as he said the concerned guy for this is on leave today.
I am still to get the demo of Samsung and sony before i make my final call..

If your budget allows then there is no better option than Sony HX850, or you can have a look at the LG 3D TVs.

HX850 is the best led t.v out there after hx950 with black levels comparable to a plasma like ST50, also a very high refresh rate and mci though its pricey but worth it

Me being from Delhi too would suggest to go to malls and try jumbo , croma, next e stores for comparing televisions there you can really see the differences and play with them. I believe V3S nearest to you does not have 1 such store
