    @Urbandropbear

    Yes all 3D TVs generally make excellent 2D TVs.

    I’ve never seen a 3D tv irl, but do you have the option of turning 3D off if your not in the mood, and have it still run at 1080p?

    @GrandmasterBBC

    Actually Cinema 3D has been certified 1080p by both TUV and Intertek. I would actually make the argument that active TVs show you less as your total vision is reduced to one eye and thus your brain can’t process the full image. This is a very common argument. I think your argument has very little weight when you look at how the brain process images. This is just an honest review of the over all technologies but because only one major brand makes passive TVs we used that brand.

    Ok, interesting. Please tell me how to achieve 1080p using my Wii on my HD TV? That’s what I thought. Also, where is the mention of the resolution halving using passive technology? I am not shooting down passive systems. In fact, I think the results you get vs the price of active tech is quite good. I guess what I am trying to say here is that your review sucks it.

    Good review ,i ordered a LG based TV few days ago , 42 inch for £450 with wifi/iviewer capabilitys etc and usb record ,uses LGs latest 3d passive panel but the brand is ” cello ” a british TV company but its ~£200 cheaper than LGs of same specifcation :) and apaprently has good reviews, ill post back to see how it goes ,not a fan of active ,the glasses r clunky ,heavy ,runs out of energy ,too much glitches, expensive

    Having owned both an active samsung and a passive lg and passive vizio i can honestly tell you 3d picture quality still looks pretty hd unless you are looking at the 65″ vizio. In fact id say imho that the passive ones look better than some active sets ive seen

    @2615863 i had the vizio e3d470vx for a brief time before returning it to get an the lg 47lw5600. The picture quality of the vizio was outstanding but the build quality was lacking. Id say go lg if you were looking for the 47″ model. But the good thing about the vizio is it comes in 32, 42, and 47 inch models

    @3DTVMANGJ oh ok cool thanks! i was planning on buying a passive 3d tv but wasn’t sure if something like a ps3 would work on it

  • 3DTVMANGJ says:
    October 27, 2011 at 9:02 am

    @jason854656 It will work on Either TV both those TVs are using the same brand and model of 3D blu ray player.

  • jason854656 says:
    October 27, 2011 at 9:38 am

    hey i have a question, so if i buy a 3d blu ray player will it only work on an active 3d tv or can it work on both ?

    @makeme708 to each his own. the price difference is insane and passive is badass either way. i say passive and i’ve tried both.

    back lighting doesnt matter when the highest brightness mode causes your black levels to go to shit. any person that uses their TV is vivid mode not only sacrifices picture quality but also lowers the life span of their set.

    I saw a vizio that has passive glassses , is it the same as the Lg basically??c Really want to buy it but not sure

    @makeme708 Ok…mr. samsung rep. Look at all your posts. You need to stop cocksmoking for Samsung. He clearly states both TVs are at the highest brightness settings. Samsung is known for weak back lighting anyways.

  • makeme708 says:

    tHE FACT IS, THE ACTIVE SHOW A FULL hd PICTURE, AND THE PASSIVE DOES NOT, ALSO THE PASSIVE SHOWS RES LINES AND JAGGY EDGES, WHILE THE ACTIVE DOES NOT, ALSO SAMSUNG NOW HAS RECHARGABLE GLASSES, AND LINKED VIA BLU-TOOTH. ALSO HE SAYS THE SAMSUNG IS KIND OF DARK, WELL JUST BY LOOKING AT THE VIDEO I SEE THAT IT IS DARK, MAYBE BRIGHTEN IT UP ABIT, IT’S LIKE HE HAS THE SAMSUNG DARK TO DICREDIT IT, TO TIP THE FAVOR IN LG’S FAVOR, THE TRUTH IS ACTIVE IS BETTER.

    @iluvticeolnitties I bring up the point of plasma (like another commenter did as well) because the reviewer stated that active 3D will “go blank” when laying down. Another commenter, as well as myself bring up plasma because it disproves his claim. The truth must be said to even the argument. As far the resolution, each eye gets 1920×540, making it possible for 1080p. however, like interlacing, it introduces temporal compression, introducing artifacts into the image not in active.
