| 1278799 | 2012-06-01 10:29:00 | Only thing I would say about it is the refresh rate looks a little low, otherwise it looks good. Make sure you see it running alongside with other TVs as a comparison before buying. | PPp (9511) | ||

Thanks PPp They've had such a run on them that they're out of stock but are ordering in some more The "offer" ends on Tuesday but if they haven'y arrived by then they'll still honour the price Does the refresh rate only become an issue if you're watching a lot of high speed sport? |

| 1278801 | 2012-06-01 22:13:00 | So what does the "Ready" bit signify? both 720p and 1080p are 'HD'. 720 is called 'HD ready' while 1080 is called 'full HD'. It's just a name for the resolution of the TV. THIS (gadgets.softpedia.com) explains the difference between HD ready and full HD. |

| 1278802 | 2012-06-01 22:16:00 | I higher refresh rate will mean smoother motion, as the TV is playing more frames per second. | Nick G (16709) | ||
| 1278803 | 2012-06-01 22:38:00 | And the difference between 60 and 100/120 hz is apparently quite dramatic. | 8ftmetalhaed (14526) | ||
| 1278804 | 2012-06-02 01:51:00 | Thanks Nick and 8ft. | tuiruru (12277) | ||
| 1278805 | 2012-06-02 01:58:00 | And the difference between 60 and 100/120 hz is apparently quite dramatic. Just looked at the specs as listed on DSE and it says the refresh rate is inly 50 Hz :confused: Hmmm.... |

| 1278806 | 2012-06-02 05:23:00 | for a normal tv, 50hz should be fine. It's only if you plan on watching a lot of sports or action movies that I'd bother paying extra for a tv with a higher refresh rate. | Nick G (16709) | ||

| 1278808 | 2012-06-03 13:55:00 | 720P I think doesn't refer to one specific resolution but several and both 1280x720 and 1366x768 both count as 720P Anything higher than DVD resolution is HD Full HD is 1080P, dunno what they'll call it when a higher standard comes out It already exists. It's called Quad HD en.wikipedia.org (And probably later on, Ultra HD en.wikipedia.org) For anyone buying now, I say get a 1080p set, gives you the capability already there for when you need it, don't think they cost much different anymore. |
