I need help deciding on which LCD HDTV to keep between Vizio and Samsng?

by admin


i recently purchsed both a Vizo and Samsung LCD HDTV but i am unsure on which to keep. I will be using my tv for BLU RAY MOVIES, PLAYSATION 3, and XBOX 360. As i have been testing them both out i have noticed some things about each. The Vizio seems to be more deep in its colors as in it seems like it has a bigger color spectrum(compared to the Samsung). However the Samsung seems to be a lot bighter. For example when i am playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 on the Vizio the colors ae very rich and the screen seems to be darker (if that makes sense) while on the Samsung the picture is extremely bright but the colors are not as rich as the Vizios.I also noticed that when i am “running” in the game in a dark area the picture gets fuzzy when playing on the Samsung but when playing on the Vizio it does not. I just want to know which one will be better for my needs for an HDTV overall; also if you could include reasons why you think one is better then the other; and please all unbiased opinions.NOTE: i have both tvs set up on “vivid” picture. Here are the specs of both tvs:(from target.com)
