Lcd Tv - Hard Vs Soft Panel

[sefoo 0]

Hello all,

Anyone has any feedback on the truth of the salestalk that the salesmen give, about the hard LCD TV panels - that when viewed from the side ( ie wide angle viewing),the picture quality is way better than LED TV and soft LCD TV panels?

What are hard and soft LCD panels anyway?I cant seem to find them on google.

In my opinion, sales tactics lah...My opinion: -

1) Hard panel are harder by the name suggest and is more rigid. The color dont look very vibrant to me.

2) Soft panel are softer but I feel it looks nicer.

During the time where I purchase my LCD (6 mths back), samsung, sony, sharp all uses soft panels so i think soft panels are good if not 3 of the best LCD tv makers wont use soft panels. Companies like LG, Philips uses hard panel...

I always see salesman banging on the hard panel and say it is very solid etc...I dont think it is useful unless we bang the screen everyday...

As for viewing angle, look at the specs...I dont think hard and soft panel has any difference....

If you have time, go over to audio house and ask...you will get some valuable info. As for LED tv, I dont know bcos during the time I recce for TV, the price is like $4-5k..haha!
