Hi All
We are currently decorating the lounge and I am looking to replace my TV. I'm not a huge techno boffin and want a good tv which will give me a good picture and motion as I watch a lot of football. I am not too worried about the smart content as I use Sky HD most of the time and I'm also not fussed about 3D.
So far I am considering the following two models:
Panasonic 47AS650 / 48AS640 (Currys version with VA panel)
or
Sony Bravia 48W605.
I have a max budget of 600 quid hence why I am looking at these models. I went into Richer Sounds and Hughes and they both recommended Panasonic slightly over Sony. However most of the reviews of the AS650 say it's quite good but not amazing, I however think it gives a very good picture and can't see any issues. I do like the build of the Panasonic as the Sony looks a little flimsy in W6 format but I wonder if the Sony will give me better motion during football even though it has a low MHz rating (purely as all reviews seem complimentary regarding the motion but some reviews state the motion isn't perfect on the Panny).
Please help as I'm literally popping into TV outlets to check these out everyday to help make my mind up and the staff are getting suspicious lol
Regards
Mark
