Just got a new Panasonic 58DX750 (£700) a few weeks ago, before that was a Samsung 50C7000 plasma from 2010 (£1300), and before that a Hitachi 42PD5000 (£2500) in 2004. From this I have learned two things; one, I am getting poorer despite earning more, and two, each TV has been better than the last one, but half the price. So that's lucky. I imagine I will get a 70 inch OLED for £300 quid in another 7 years, which will be handy as I will be probably be subsisting on a state pension.
My viewing is split between TV and projector though, and I have alternated TV upgrades with projector upgrades, although only fairly budget models. Even with the new UHD TV, I still prefer movies on the Benq projector even if the picture isn't technically as good as the TV just for the scale and cinema feel.
The Samsung is actually still going strong but demoted to the bedroom until it dies, which is also what happened to the previous set. I think it has lost a bit of brightness over the years, but the picture is still pleasing. |
