Good sites that review tvs?

May 27, 2024 11:46 PM

I would like to replace our 16 yr old plasma tv. I would like to first read some good sites reviewing tvs to get a feel for options. Are there any such sites still out there?

yes, rtings

maybe once you've narrowed it down to a bare few also look up avsforum's "owner's thread" for those models to see what owners are kvetching about

I'll only add that when you have a few options, search for their model numbers together and you will likely surface a few discussion threads specific to them, where you can get a little more info and opinions from people who have or are looking at those specifically. You are probably not the only one who considered models A, B, and C. I found this (and RTINGS) extremely useful while going down a rabbit hole deciding what monitor to get last year.

If you have a Costco membership, all TVs sold there come with a minimum 2 year warranty. Some have three years and some have five years! This is at no extra cost; you actually buy the warranty but then they take the cost of it off of the TV.
