Design

Samsung definitely know what it takes to build up a real stylish product. The company has enormous work to build distinctive style product such as LN55B650 55″ 1080p LCD HDTV and other. It comes with smashing good looks, Touch of Color™ design and DLNA technology means you can harness your entire home network through your HDTV. When it comes to design, also look at the stylish LCD Monitor like Samsung SyncMaster T220 they built, I think they are truly the industry lead in designing aspect.

Technology

Top selling might by Samsung, but Sony LCD TV technology are better. This goes well, for people who do not mind spending few hundred dollars extra for getting better features than Samsung. If you wish to get great TV Experience and do not want compromise with the price, then the Sony is a great option with advance technology. Sony TV’s are beyond doubt great for your viewing experience. They have the most technologically advanced equipments and the Latest innovations always ready for you.

Features

This is a very debatable topic, while it is clear that Samsung LCDs are better studded with features than LG TV, on the other hand Sony could be a tough competition. Of course, Sony comes with advanced technology, but Samsung can fetch you similar features at much lower rate. So we prefer going with Samsung again.

Picture Quality

Picture quality usually varies with model to model of any manufacture you go for. It purely depends on the setting you have for the TV. But on the bottom line, personally I like to go with Samsung LCD TVs as they offer great picture quality.

Audio Quality

Audio usually depends on person to person, some of them believe in going for one particular brand. But LG have huge market for speakers and they build better sound quality than other companies. In fact, you get great audio experience with LG and Phillips.

Price

We all look for something specific when buying LCD TV, it could be great design, features, picture quality or audio quality. But at the end we have to work out on price tag. So it merely depends on your budget when buying one, but according the sales ratio we can figure out that Samsung LCDs are best and more sold. For example, Samsung LCD TVs ranges about $280 for a 22-inch screen and for Sony you would pay about $400 for a 19-inch screen approximately.

Customer Service

Customer service is better with LG and Sony when compared to Samsung. So make sure you speak about it with the shop keeper before you make a buying decision.

Conclusion

Comparing these giants is not easy as they all are industry lead and rule in one way or other. In fact, we feel deciding which one is better than other depends more on one’s personal preference than anything else as we only know what kind of product to conclude on. However, when you do not want to shed extra dollars, then Samsung is a great preference. After all, value for money for this company is more than anything you could achieve from other brand. Your price will be justifiable with Samsung. Happy Shopping.
