Performance
We plugged in a PS3 straightaway, and also a PC for checking our newly downloaded HD videos. I also like to check analog performance, so I plugged in a Harman Kardon DVD player via component, and last but not the least, lots of chips. The DVE Test Disc went in first to strut its stuff, and here's what we saw and heard.
Calibration took a few minutes, and in the end we received a decent picture. The contrast levels were nice and crisp, with no blooming anywhere, though deepest blacks still did not come out convincingly. No LCD does that yet; plasma still has an edge here. But color was quite awesome – it was really very satisfying to see such beauty.
On to the Transformers HD video, and the detail showed through brilliantly. Motion scenes still had a bit of judder, and animation scenes especially acted slightly funny, with ghosting and a bit more judder. Full HD video at 24 FPS was much better in its motion. Besides this, stuff such as color, contrast, brightness etc. were very competent.
Conclusion
This is a very good choice for a high-end TV, but gamers and action enthusiasts might need more clarity in their dynamic vision. At Rs 1,70,000 (MRP), its cost is a bit on the higher side, but then brand reputation counts. There are cheaper alternatives in the market that perform almost as good, but for the brand conscious the Mosel LA46M81B is a natural choice. Check it out.
is it good for gaming?
