I would definitly go 720p. The truth is unless you are going 42 and above and are going to be withing 8 feet of the television the 720p vs 1080p debate is not neccasary. I am not judging you but I work in an electronics store part time while goin to school. (Sears commision salesman). I notice that many people coming in say that they have to get 1080p when in reality it is pointless unless you are going over 42 and then until you hit 52 it is still debateable.

I currently have the A3 for my 40" 1080i Samsung LCD. I also picked up a new A35 from Best Buy for $150. Now I have a back up/player, If I decide to upgrade to a 1080p TV. Go online to bestbuy.com, see if the stores in your area have any available. If they do, then run! At this price they're going very fast.Remember the five free movie rebate is still going, you have until 2/28.

This TV is not 1080p, it's 720p. However, it's generally accepted that on any monitor 50" and below the additional resolution isn't discernable.

There are two major HD standards, 720 and 1080. Of those there are two varieties, progressive (p) and interlaced (i). The first number (1366 in the case of this model) is vertical pixels. The second number (768) is horizontal pixels, which means this TV doesn't have enough pixels to display the full quality of a 1080(p or i) signal because that standard requires 1080 vertical pixels.This TV converts 1080i signals to 720(p?) resolution but the native resolution is 720.Yes, there are LCD TVs that run at 1920x1080 but they are pretty new to the market and more expensive than this model.

i have a Sony 32" that's 1080P. you do have to spend a bunch tho and unless you sit fairly close like me (7-8 ft) you probably won't see any difference between 720 and 1080. your money would probably be better spent getting a set with a high contrast ratio

Anything 720p or above is HD. This is a 1080p, which is HD to the max. It is the number of pixels per square inch. There's no need to print HD on this type of tv any more, as it is so high in pixels. It's kind of the same reason no one prints "COLOR" on a tv description, as they are "ALL" color.

The highest shooting setting is full HD at 1920 x 1080p, which translates to about 2.1MP. The picture should be very sharp assuming the display on your TV is also 1080p.

hi, i have a similar size room, tried 26, 32 , and 37 inch. 32 is best. one thing not talked about often is, there's also a minimum viewing distance for these tvs, esp. 720p. any closer, you see the pixels, any noise in the image, etc. with a hq tv like samsung, sony, sharp, my experiments indicate for a 32" around 5 feet is about as close as i'd want to go. anything else, i'd have to go to 1080p (the sharp 32" aquos 1080p model is great up to 3 feet, but more $$). btw, right now you can pick up a samsung LN-T3242H at circuit city for $720 if you're a AAA member (you need to go to www.aaa.com/circuitcity to get a coupon code). this model is a level down from the 3253H but i picked one up yesterday and so far it seems pretty good to me. you can read about both models on amazon. good luck.

I was at Sam's Club the other day and did a side by side comparison of a 32-in 1080p and 720p playing the exact same programming. I felt I could tell a difference in the HD programming. The 720p had less details in the skin tones than the 1080p.

You need to find the model number of the tv. The 1080p is yhe resolution and lots of tvs can be 1080p. You have to look usually on the back of the tv for a black square that has model and serial number

The LN26A450 is a lower resolution monitor(720P Vs 1080P). If your using it for HD TV only, than the picture might actually look better on the lower res monitor because that is the resolution HD TV is broadcast in. If you want the most out of your DVD's, BluRay's, and video games then go with the 1080P.

================== &gt;&gt;BRiT says: The HD-A30 does 1080p output. The HD-A3 is the one that only does 1080i. &lt;&lt; ================== Thanks BRiT, ... Your Correct, ... I corrected my post above!!!

unless you are sitting extremely close to the TV visually you will not be able to tell the difference in 1080P and 720P until you move to the 42" tv line. The biggest difference you will notice in this TV would be the contrast ratio at 10,000:1 thats amazing, the white black contrast will stun you.

Depending on what you are using your tv for, 1080p makes all the difference in the world. Especially for gaming.

Their HD model streams at a max of 720p, while their more expensive models go up to 1080*. That asterix denotes that the detail is pursuant to what carriers offer. Example; Netflix only streams in 720p.Give a look at what the options are. If you want other components like a usb pnp, than upgrade, however the base model will support your tv. No need to get one that supports 1080 when you have 720p. Save your money and buy me a beer for good advice.

No, the normal human eye cannot tell the difference between 1080i and 1080p, the same for 1080p and 720p HDTV's. One might tell a difference if the face is pressed against the tv screen, a practice I would not recommend.

When you have a screen under 30" 1080p doesnt really matter http://s3.carltonbale.com/resolution_chart.html
