The decision I made clear depends on two factors:
Image quality vs. Price
After the reconstruction of the living room makes the old tube to be no queuing damaged after more than 10 years and is now mothballed for now. Spare ago have. In terms of area and legroom default was the idea of 55 "+ X
Other thoughts:
Due to the current 4K (UHD) with no real content (a handful of films, it is to actually give) and the ongoing hype around 3D (2D = stereo) and constantly new interfaces etc. I just decided a favorable device on current equipment to set.
After some discussion with my brother, who, not without justification fan of some LCD Toshiba models, I have clearly opted for plasma.
Conveniently therefore to - if it then but to times with 4K, alternatively with high-speed internet in non-metropolitan areas, precede in Germany - a painless (financially) change to this technique is possible.
Do not feel like every few years to pay thousands of euros.
Image: Top. Readjustment is sure everyone will want to do something for themselves indiviuell / need.
Sound is OK - runs anyway on investment :)
SmartTV I could not test due to lack of network connection (yet).
First impression of the menu is OK. Everything is clear and without any prior knowledge you can make basic settings quickly.
Construction: Here at least two people go Ran. Reason: The base construction is 2 parts. The actual foot is still visible in the packaging. The adapter piece foot TV is hidden under one of the polystyrene units on which the TV rests during transport. After the part was found and mounted, it was still working the two parts TV walk to marry each other, which has after a few attempts and a controlling 3rd pair of eyes also worked well. Looks a bit shaky but OK st. While looking TV it comes to the appearance of the image, not whether the foot is particularly pretty or not :).
Optics: The frame acts as black brushed aluminum. That makes a very sophisticated look. At the foot construction plastic is installed which can affect the wobbly impression somewhat uncertain, but falls after everything is, not on and all in all, the device looks very well made and clearly-quality than the cheap price here :)
For us a great deal for most film (BD) -Genuß and now and then "standard" TV program.
