Thinking of getting a Plasma

Discus and support Thinking of getting a Plasma in XBoX on Consoles to solve the problem; I think you mean 0.116 kWh and 0.087 kWh. Otherwise, the power consumption of tv's would have gone up quite a lot. ;) Discussion in 'XBoX on Consoles' started by DarthDooku, Mar 6, 2014.

    Only downside is that plasma TV's are energy guzzlers. I'm waiting for LG's OLED to come down in price.

    The refresh rate shouldn't make a difference for games since you should turn off all the post processing stuff that will actually make use of the high refresh rate. Sometimes even though a TV it says 120Hz or 600Hz if you connect it to a PC that can output
    say 120Hz most of the time it will only let you display at 60Hz. A lot of the time anything higher than 60Hz is used internally for post processing effects or for 3D capability. Look up soap opera effect and that is where the ability to display extra frames
    helps especially for watching sports. Xbox One is set to natively output at 60Hz.

    Plasma displays are on the way out even though they often provide incredible picture quality especially when it comes to contrast. Really deep blacks that even LED array LCD displays have a hard time matching. This is where options like 0-255 reference,
    Super White, and other picture settings actually get used if the display supports them. Viewing angles are really great as well. Really only downsides to them are weight, thickness, and power consumption. Even then they aren't that bad when you need space
    for video connectors anyway and the game console is going to consume more power than the TV ever will. Minor annoyance is most are glass which is fine if you can place it where sunlight, lights, and lamps won't cause glare.

    I would go with the Samsung Plasma and buy a Blu-Ray calibration disc or find one with the THX calibration included and also use the Ones built in calibration. Adjusting a TV to the input and making sure the source is setup for any options the display supports
    really goes a long way these days.

    I recommend looking the two models up on Lag input database if you are worried about shooters. I have a 51" samsung plasma. I love it. You can't beat it for the price.

    So here's a good comparison from my experience. I have a 50 inch Panasonic plasma and don't have any problems with refresh rate. My mother in law has a Sharp 55 inch LED that shows colors nicely, but can't produce blacks worth a flip. Also, I've noticed
    motion blur on her's on channels that have stuff scrolling across the bottom and I believe her's is 120hz.

    So my opinion is get a plasma. They don't have a problem with burn in anymore and they last just as long as LEDs.
