1. Budget?
60 k
2. Display type and size?
Full HD or 4k
3. Primary use of Tv/monitor?
TV
4. Ports Required?
Atleast 2 HDMI and 2 USB 3.5 MM
5. Preferred choice of brand?
Sony
6. Any TV/monitor in consideration?
Sony 42700B -- 60k
LG UB820T -- 59k Flipkart
Panasonic TH-42AS670D 57K Flipkart

7. Any other info that you want to share.
Which would be best for watching Bluray movies, play PS3, and watch sports.

I was really confused between Sony 42700B and LGUB820T and while checking flipkart i came across Panasonic TH-42AS670D which has 3D, although not sure about the picture and 3D (Polarized) quality.

I am slightly favoring LGUB820T because of 4k.
Could you guys help and suggest if LGUB820T is bettery buy or i should go for Sony 42700B or Panasonic TH-42AS670D is better value with 3D.

Regarding 4k that will be going to depend on how long you wish to keep your TV. Since for the next 2 to 3 years we won't be going to see any main stream 4k content.
So now answer is 4k important to you?

Thanks shadow.
No 4k is not that important for me.
I would prefer the one with better picture quality for Bluray movies and sports.

Get LG UB820T eye closed. No point in getting 1080p if you are getting 4k for same price.

Thanks guys,

I think i can afford 42W900B due to flipkart's new EMI offer on Credit cards.
Does anyone know whether the LED TV prices will drop due to this years budget, I read somewhere that they will become cheaper.

Just waiting for that, before i make the purchase.

It is not waste just play any video in 4k tv and 1080p tv see the difference yourself.I agree there are hardly any 4k content but tv upscaler will vastly improve even a 480p videos.

Even a normal HD channel will look awesome with 4k tv.

Lastly 4k is future proof.I remember buying my samsung Tv(720p) when 1080p was new in market later regretting on my decision.

Thanks shadow, that is a good read.
Any difference in W42700B and W42900B other than 3d.
Is the Picture quality much better in 900B?

Okay i See W42900B has Triluminos Display
Can someone please comment on the 3D quality, is it good?
Also does anyone know whether the LED TV prices will drop due to this years budget, I read somewhere that they will become cheaper.

Yeah I read similar article stating 1080p is useless in 32inch led but I can clearly see the difference.

I have seen a few 4k TV at the outlet. But I was never able able to justify the price of those. I mean even if I can see the difference I want to view content on it first that make my buy worth it. So I decided to hold my purchase till I saw those CES TV launch in India.

I suggest you watch both tvs in 3D in multibrand showroom and decide yourself.
My suggestion if you need 3D then get LG else Sony.
