Plasma equivalent to Samsung 650?

by Terry Browne Sep 24, 2008 12:43PM PDT

Is there any 46" plasma that is equivalent or better in price and picture quality to the Samsung 650 series?
And BTW, is the burn in still a problem for plasma TVs? I am soooo confused wheather to get a plasma or an LCD now. My wife sits a little farther to the side of the TV and the plasma picture is supposed to have a better viewing angle. Also I have read that it does have a better picture quality too for the money that is. The Samsung 950 is probably almost as good but the $$$ is also a lot more...

Thanks

Plasma vs LCD

Burn in is not eh problem it was three years ago. And yes viewing angles are better. If your going to watch TV in low light because plasmas have reflective screens you shold look at the Panasonic TH-46PZ800U which is review here at CNET. FYI the 650 has a reflective screen while the 630 does not.

Nothing beats going to a store and looking at bothe TV's and judgeing for yourself.
