    Need TV Savvy info (for canada)

    Yet another how about this TV thread.

    OK i am moving out in my own appart in April and i wanna change my TV (currently an old 27inches that is not HD or not even flat screen)

    What i am looking for is a good ACL TV if possible 40-42 inches that is not too pricy

    Can come from sites that will send it home or that i have to pick up

    i found this TV on Futureshop


    http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/produ...=&sku=10126012



    Is it a good deal or not?

    I'm personally not a fan of Dynex, the stuff seems to break or have one issue or another with me. My friend recently bought this: http://www.samsung.com/ca/consumer/t...ail&returnurl= for about $550 it works/looks great.

    I have a model that is very similar and it is damn near perfect going on 3 years of use. The only issue I do have is the fact that it is a dust magnet, and needs to have the sides wiped down every few days or so. Its your call, but I really like Samsung, Sony, and LG for TV's as they have a very good history of delivering good products that last a while.

    He's right on the "don't cheap out" part, Dynex is kinda poop for most models.

    Watch for sales, look for older models of brand names, research the models. If you think this is a TV you'll have for a long ass time, spend more.

    That said, i'd say go bigger than 42". I really wanted a 42", but once I had one, it's pretty good, but I wish I had a 60... Maybe in a couple years
