Hi ya,

Looking into buying a HDTV maybe 37" but so many choices don't have a wall to mount on looking at ebuyer found this...

Prestigio P370DVD 37" HD LCD TV Black & Silver 1366x768 800:1 4:3, 16:9 500cd/m2 8ms

What you think using it play dvds watch tv and well play the xbox 360.

its a tv.. and a fairly nice one.

I have that exact resolution on one of my tvs hooked up to my 360.

don't buy into that 1080i/p crap
Your not missing out on much, you can barely tell a diff.

The 1080i/p? All I think I have do is switch cable to HDTV and plug the hdtv cables in...I hope

1080i/p isn't crap its the resolution just like any computer monitor

The difference between 1080I is noticeable, so dont lie, its bound not to be on Xbox 360, because thats 720P.

Good tv though... imo, as times have moved on in the past 8 months, all lcd, plasma HS TV's are good atleast ok, i shouldnt think there are any 'bad' ones, just some reallly good ones

720<1080i<1080p

1080i for interlaced, 1080p for progressive

TheEnd187 · 06-15-2007, 03:33 AM

make sure it is hdmi 1.3 compliant if you ever want to upgrade to blu-ray in the future, nvm its 720p, still a good tv

Silverlord · 06-15-2007, 04:12 AM
