Philips has launched new series for LED's and LCDs.

Can you tell me is it worth it? I am looking for a 24" LCD for my small room. After checking the manufacture sites, I was amazed to see the 24" LED for just 27k. Is it worth to buy this one? Or please suggest any 24" LCD/LED (if available). No big ones because as per the viewing distance 24" will be perfect.

I am going to use with DTH (HD) only or sometimes with my laptop (HDMI).

I thought 27k for LED is cheaper ? you purchased LED TV's ?

mine is LCD..
bt as u said in ur query dat ur room is quite small.. den i wud advice u to go for LCD only.. dere is not dat much diff. in picture quality in comparision to the money u will pay for LED..

the major difference will come when u see one LCD and 1 LED TV from a large distance... at dat tym u will notice dat LED TV have better picture and more bright also dan the LCD one.. n i dnt think dis condition will come in ur case,..

Yes, I want wall mount and decided to go for 26" though initially decided to go for 24".

around 22k but can add few more if needed. I need all the features i.e. full hd etc and usb can be a advantage.

IMO u will get each and every feature in dis range man...
is dere any preference too from ur side toward Philips brand???
or u can move to sumoder brand too/..

n AFAIK in samsung u have 2 option:
1. LA26C480H1 - it has 15W x 2 speaker, 2 Composite In (AV) [ 1 side and 1 back] ,
2. LA26C450E1M - it has 5W x 2 speaker, 1 Composite In (AV), DTV Tuner Built-in (above model dnt have dis) - dis model wud be 1k cheaper dan above one..

n in LG the best one wud b 26LU11UR oderwise which will give u every option
oderwise 26LD340 or 26LD345.. nt a big differnce the 1st one have USB & no surround sound bt the latter one dnt have USB n have surround sound,,,

Sorry for the late reply, I am getting totally confused on this. The model you suggested LA26C480H1 provide resolution of 1366 x 768 hd ready, where as the philips model Panel resolution: 1920x1080p full hd.

There is no brand preference as most of the products gets outdated within 4-5 years or less. So which ever has good features like samsung, lg, panasonic,sony or philips will suffice my needs. I went for the demo of philips, but they don't have that model yet and the dealer told me to visit after Monday :(

@OP, I will say it is a nice buy

LCDs are cheaper you can buy panasonic/haier 32 inch displays in 20-22K. Philips is a good brand. sony/samsung or any advertized full HD displays would come in more than 30K

I will prefer features than just brand name IMO panasonic/philips/haier/sharp are not bad manufacturers they too provide quality products. until and unless you are ultra geek to notice little difference in color saturation and contrast

just a little caution as I do not know availability of philips product (televisions) in the market or shop, neither do I have current price, but still you will find this model cheaper than 27K, this being 24 inch display should come around 22-24K with the feature pack it has got.

BTW you also get panasonic 32 inch full HD TVs in 26-27K range. I have seen them priced 26990 in few malls

Thanks to both of you for helping me out. I already mentioned that cant go for 32inch as it would be bigger for my small room. I already have one too. I think I'm going to settle for Philips as it has all the features, I compared most the models with samsung etc but they don't provide full HD in lower inch models. :lol:

I will be visiting Philips showroom on Sunday and finalized any of the two models which ever is available. I don't have issues with spending 24-27k for 26inch model if its justifies the features. Thanks again. :)

I hope you guys know that there is no such LED TV out there, it's basically a LCD TV with LED Back lighting.
