Looking for 46" TV

[darrensen]

Hi,

I've been to look at a few tv's today and i've decided on the size. Going to go for a 46" but unsure on the manufacture.

I'm going to be using the TV for

SKY + soon to be HD
Xbox 360
Bluray

I watch a fair amount of football so it needs to be able to handle fast moving objects.

What are the Samsung 8 series like? I also hear there is a 9 on it's way. Is that worth going for? Does the 8 suffer from input lag?

Seen a load of posts about the Sony w4500, good and bad.

Also considering a Plasma, Panny TH46PZ81B

Cheers

What about the Samsung LE46F86BDX? What is this like for Xbox 360, Sky + and Bluray?

46PZ81 suits your viewing distance. PZ81 has less lag if IFC is off. Its faster than Samsung F96 by around 15-30 ms. Gaming should be very responsive for PZ81.
