TV display panel lottery (VA or IPS in same model ranges)
Posted: 09 Aug 2019, 03:43
Many TV makers use different LCD panel types (VA or IPS LCD) in the same model range, sometimes limited to a specific size (often the largest or smallest TV) and sometimes just as a mix between VA and IPS even in same size classes.
It's very bad practice and would compare to car makers using a mix between diesel and petrol engines in the same car model.
Here are some examples:
- Panasonic FX780 (IPS except in 75" which is VA)
- Sony XE85 / X850E (IPS except in 85" which is VA)
- LG UM71 (IPS except in 60" which is VA)
- Philips PUS7803 (mix between IPS and VA)
- Samsung MU6400 (mix between IPS and VA)
There are many more. If you know of any examples - old or new - please share in this thread.
and hat tip to Dan for bringing it up and reminding me again through his much loved enthusiasm and energy!
