Answer by Phradoe B
it really depends what you are watching usually the higher the resolution the better however its better to watch a basketball game in 720 than 1080 becAuse there is so much going on in the background and foreground that if you viewed it in 1080 you’ll get somewhat of a streaking effect with the panning of the camera. but if you watched something like kungfu panda 1080 you’ll get a better picture because of the detail in the animation. it goesw back to depending on what you are watching

What would be better a LCD HDTV with 1080p and 60Hz or a LCD HDTV with 720p and 600Hz?

Question by quickistheone: What would be better a LCD HDTV with 1080p and 60Hz or a LCD HDTV with 720p and 600Hz?
They are both 40 inch. They both have a 2,000:1 contrast ratio. I will mainly be using it for Gaming, but also movies.

Best answer:

Answer by a Halo 1 Elite
obviously the LCD HDTV 1080p it has higher quality and uses MUCH lesss power than then the 720p tv

By the way, that 600Hz will add a very large number on your power bill.

Even though it is more expensive, the 1080p tv is more worth it because not only will you enjoy higher quality tv, but you will also save a lot of money because it uses less power

Question by RkO: What is Better (LCD) 32″ 1080p or 37″ 720p?
What is better a 32 inch 1080p or 37 inch 720p both being LCD TV?
Also is there much of a difference in both TVs?

Best answer:

Answer by honeykbee
Depends on what you’ll be using it for as well as how far from the set you’ll be sitting. For gaming you’ll need to 1080p, for casual bedroom viewing, maybe not. Is there a major price difference?

Personally, I’d go for the smaller 1080, anyday. Quality over quantity.

1080p.. better resolution and despite what some people say you do see the difference on a 32″

I would get bigger though as a 42 wont be that much more.

Would a 720p LED TV have a better picture than a 1080p LCD TV?

Question by y2kbug77: Would a 720p LED TV have a better picture than a 1080p LCD TV?
I’m looking to get a TV for college and I’m going for either a 26 or 32 inch. I know there are alot of new technologies in LED TVs and I was wondering if these technologies would give the LED an advantage over an LCD TV that is 1080p compared to the LEDs lower resolution of 720p.

Best answer:

Answer by Louis
any tv smaller than 42″ you can’t tell the difference between 720 and 1080. So get the LED because of the better technology behind it. (Low energy, deeper blacks, higher visual quality)

Best answer:

Answer by Jonny N
720p is pretty good. 1080p is just higher quality, but at the moment i don’t think anything broadcasts in that unless you have a blueray player or a ps3. I can’t remember but xbox 360 might play 1080p with hdmi cables.
