LED TV's are still LCD TV's, they just have a different method of back lighting (many LED's as opposed to fluorescent tubes). This means that any motion blur you experienced with a previous LCD that isn't on your new LED back lit LCD is probably because the previous TV model was particularly prone to motion blur, it has nothing to do with the merits of LED back lighting.
That's not to say there are no merits to LED back lighting, it's brilliant. Higher contrast, lower power consumption and thinner TV's. I would always recommend an LED back lit TV if you can pay the little extra.
Completely agree, here. Your post on the Quattron, I can't really argue any facts, and I completely understand your view point.
But I have to say that there is definitely a huge difference. I notice it most with reviewing images. Autoshow images and landscapes are just breathtaking. But I am also partially color blind. A lot of males are, but are not aware.
My point is, I have done zero research on Quattrons outside of my own television, and since I purchased, but can personally recommend them, at least to be checked out.
I feel like for video gaming without a cost of an electric bill, plasma is the way to go. I believe them to be heavier, and assume they are less fuel efficient (because they get so hot, compared to my LED and fl. backlit LCDs).
But, they are usually cheaper to buy originally. Really, though, the best bet for anyone is to go to Best Buy and look around. See what looks nice to you. Ask questions. Go back, and do the same thing. Go to different stores. Ask the same questions, and new ones. Build your knowledge wealth, and watch prices. When you find a few you want, bring in your PS3 and test it out on what you narrow down. When you decide your television, watch prices. Also, keep in mind market trends (ie, when oLED is coming out, what time of the year it is (superbowl/december/E3)). And when you find your perfect television, for the perfect price, you will rejoice.
Seriously, my television w/ a four year all inclusive warranty cost me 200 less than the device itself normally. 1499 slashed to 1050, then 250 for warranty.
Oh, and research your warranty, also. A lot of people don't recommend them, but SOME are worth it. I love Best Buy for the Black Tie. I have personally experience replacements for a notebook with a bb through the screen, and two cameras broken at my fault. And a pixel burnt out on a television w/ the warranty, and it is already qualified for the replacement. We are just waiting until closer to the end. For the price, you are gauranteed a television for that long, or you get a replacement. Brand new, of exact equal value or greater. Or, you can get the money value towards another product.
