The New York Times just had another go at the question: Which is the best TV technology; is it LCD or is it plasma? They had a look at usual factors such as color, contrast, response time and picture quality, and concluded that plasma continues to best LCD as a TV display technology.
Two of the TV sets that they used to form their conclusion were the Sony 40-inch LCD model KDL-40XBR2, and the Pioneer 50-inch plasma model 5070HD. After the aforementioned evaluation criteria were tallied, there was a small “advantage for plasma”, and presumably the Pioneer model (depicted) as well.
At least the NY Times is consistent – a similar article from about a year and-a-half ago, also declared plasma TV’s to be better than LCD…and, it’ll (eventually) be interesting to see how these 2 approaches stack up against the much-touted SED TV.
