Hi,
I am on the fence to buy a 42" 3D TV. After some research, I have finalized the LG 42LW5700 and Sony 40EX720. I have demoed both these panels in the showrooms and was particularly blown away by the LG LW5700. It's 3D performace was exceptional. Even the 2D performance was on par with the Sony. The LG provided a wider view angle thanks to its IPS panel. Only thing that is stopping me from getting the LG is the brand. Somehow the 4 letters "Sony" looks rich in any living room.
I have a the following queries :
1) Are there any negatives in the LG panels that should not make me choose the LG?
2) Is it safe getting either of these brands from the Grey market?
3) What should be a good price if I buy it with Bill and warranty form an authorized dealer?
4) Which one should I buy?
People who have seen both these panels in action, please put in your valuable suggestions.
