:facepalm

Here we go again. We’ve already discussed this. Plasma no longer has any benefit compared to an LED LCD (be it in the corners or what not).

The LED LCD back lighting is now just as nice as Plasma (which was their stake to claim for a while - better backlighting). And that 600hz refresh rate Plasma boasts is useless. Most people won’t notice anything on a 60hz TV. The only reason why we need 120 or 240 is for the 3D stuff. That’s it.

LED LCD OP. Do it.
