Anti-glare worth the extra $$
|
This is my first plasma, so I am blown away by the picture quality. I previously had a 27" Sony flat-screen CRT, which I thought was pretty good when I bought it many years ago. Not any more.
I gave it the first 4 starts because I am not a videophile, and so cannot rate compared to other plasmas, so I am tempering my enthusiasm. It gets one more star for the anti-glare. I had the 75U in the cart when I stumbled on the 77U with anti-glare, and went with that. WELL WORTH the extra $100. We do not have good light control in the room, so I was hoping the anti-glare would help, and it delivers. I give the anti-glare 4 out of 5, it works WAY better than I had hoped.
After agonizing over 720p vs. lower-quality-brand 1080p, I opted for the 720p, and I am pleased. We have a large room, so the 720p is excellent, since we are seldom as close as 6'. You have to be at about 3' to see the pixels, and even then it is not distracting. At 10'+ even VHS tapes look way better than the old CRT; the graininess is marginally evident, but is far preferred to horizontal lines.
My only complaint is the accessibility of the controls. It would be nice to have access to basic controls (volume, video input) on the front for those times the kids take the remote who-knows-where. Also, a single set of input on the front for things like still and video cameras. But do any plasmas have this? I do not know. Very minor annoyance.
Considering all the factors, I think this unit is the best value for a high-quality viewing experience.
