Default New TV Search Help

Well, I'm planning on getting a new TV for christmas, my current 42" Plasma is on its last legs, when you switch it into HD, the screen just goes green.. So im looking for a new one..

Looking for 42" minimum, Has to be HD, don't want another where i have to switch between HD and non HD tv.. Has to be wall mountable, as i have limited space. HDMI i would idealy want, to get the best out of my xbox..

Looking to spend around £300-£350.. Not an awful lot for a tv, but hey ho, already got surround sound and stuff, so none of the nonsense is needed..

Also, don't really want plasma, because the one i have now is shit with dark colours and blacks, so don't want that shit going down!

Saxp geeks.. GO GO GOOO

I acknowledge there is an IT & Multimedia section, but not an awful lot of people go looking in there, so i chose to break the rules and pose in general, where i will get more response, so fuck you saxp staff, and merry fuckmas.

quality over size, with that budget id get a top end 32" tv rather than 40+ with an inferior picture.

would make your whole films/gaming experience much more enjoyable tbh.

Ideally i don't want plasma, should have said, LCD or LED, my current plasma is shit for blacks, and having blurs in the dark colouring, like watching someone play minecraft

Agree with this, no point buying things for yourself before Christmas as the sale will have everything much cheaper

I know what you mean but unlike the ipad, these have SD card capabilities, cheeky 32GB micro sd card and your laughing.

Just checked on ebay can get a 32GB card for £10 !!
