I bought one of the last gen Samsung 50/51" Plasma TVs back in 2010. It's been great and we love the picture, but for the last 2 years, it's been slowly showing this pink/purple patch in the top/center of the screen. I can probably have it repaird and plan to keep it.
But I have no idea what TV to get.
1. Would like good contrast.
2. Would like it to be a good gaming platform (low latency)
3. Will use external video sources and audio.
4. I kind of like the Samsung flush/flat mount TVs.
5. OLED seems to spendy and burn-iny for us (change my mind)
6. Would prefer something less reflection sensitive than the glass front of my plasma
My main issue is that I don't know what I'm getting for my money. They sell 65" TVs for $498 at Walmart now.
Budget:
$900-1200 (could stretch higher, prefer not to) and while I'd like a 75, my wife would probably prefer a 65
Usage:
70% is TV viewing (streaming)
25% is gaming (XB1/Switch/??)
5% is movie watching (streaming, but I may buy more Blu-Rays)
