Hi,

Confused between these two LG 42LN5710 vs Samsung 40F550

Almost same price, same size, same features...

Which one would you pick?

Thanks

Neither. KDL42W653 will be my choice.

Is that available in India? I could not find it anywhere.

And given I had to choose between these 2 only - which one would be better?

Not by that model number, no. It should be the W650 in India. UK always has a 3 with the model number, while ours are 0.

No idea about those models you mentioned. I only check HDTV test for TV reviews, and I don't think they covered either, so no interest / idea.

They will fix that with a software update.
