is it 720p?

[lamp_shade_2000]

Do the Sharp or LG. Toshiba is 100% shit. Crappy picture and worse reliability.

[dragonone]

sharp yes
but toshiba def >> LG

[03ozwhip]

i have totally different opinions on here. so toshiba yes or no. i think the lg has 720p

[lamp_shade_2000]

The lg30 is 720p as is the toshiba. I sell tvs or a living and from my experience the toshiba is the worst out of the 3 you chose. I would highly recommend samsung as well.

Depends on which level of Toshiba's you buy, my Regza's picture is nice and its been 1 year now no problems...

[lamp_shade_2000]

A lot will depend on the model but my family is replacing its 3rd toshiba in 3 years....

[JordanLotoski]

id go sharp over LG all day long....the are kinda the pioneers of the LCD tv, (correct me if iam wrong)

[Kloubek]

Sharp.

[msommers]

Wasn't sharp having shitty banding issues

[lamp_shade_2000]

Sharp was having banding issues a couple years ago. I have not seen anything in a while.

[03ozwhip]

so i totally was thinking wrong altogether because the sharp was last on my list. so sharp seems to be the better tv, even though it doesnt have 720?

[03ozwhip]

actually looking at the sharp again and it has up to 1080i

[dj_rice]

Sharp will be good for gaming if thats what ur purpose of buying it for is....

My old man picked up a Sharp and find it has a very crisp picture!

My buddy on the other hand picked up a Toshiba and the blacks on his TV don't come through very well for some reason.. They all seem greyish.

What model Toshiba

[dragonone]

on a 32", it wouldn't even matter if it was 1080p 'cause it's just too small; heck i can't even tell on my 37"

my toshiba has been going strong for 3 years as well, and this is from a time when it only had 1 hdmi input

when u say u sell tv's for a living ppl like to listen to you. so when you make a generalization that all toshiba's are shit ppl like me like to make an opinion.

regardless of whether LG is better or Toshiba, just grab the sharp

[03ozwhip]

sharp is what im looking at, but im only using it for the wall in front of my bed. nothing more. no gaming.

[nonlinear]

i'm not sure hoe important brand name is... these days the engineering and design for a lot of electronics is outsourced and not done in house, so the quality of different components of each model will vary depending on who designed it, not necessarily what brand has contracted them and put their name on the outside

can you go into the store and compare them in terms of menu, picture quality, etc? also, google for reviews on each of these and see what consumers say
