can anyone make a detail comparison between lg 42lm3410 and samsung 40eh6030.
actually I liked the Samsung design and LG 3d picture quality. Else most of specifications are same. Please mention some details regarding small features like pip, time shift, 3d depth, audio out, etc

Look for these
LG 42LM6400
LINK
LG 42LM6400 LED 42 inches Full HD CINEMA 3D Television | Television | Flipkart.com
Philips 42PFL7977
LINK
Philips - 7000 series LED TV 107cm (42") Easy 3D DDB - 42PFL7977/V7 - 7000 series - Televisions - Sound and vision

They uses both passive for 3D.

But lm6400 and Philips 7977 are costly . My budget is 60000. And I am not interested in smart features. I need tv only for watching tv channels and full hd movies via USB.
Philips have problems in USB (hangs many times).
i am getting both samsung and LG at 57000.

EH6030 is the basic or can entry level 3D TV by samsung, and is now available at a much lesser price.
If you want a good 3D TV then opt for LG or can have a look at Sony 40HX850 too.

Yep...
Its true that active 3D looks prettier than the passive one.. But, the real problem starts when u intend to watch the 3D continuously for a couple of hours or so.. Using active sets, u will feels dizzy or have a headache, or both of these + a nauseatic feeling..
But passive tech won't have these side effects..

Choice is yours! :)

Even i was in a turmoil when i was to decide between a 40" eh6030 and 32" hx750, but compromised with the size and went with sony as its PQ is exceptional Imo. Budget was also a constraint for me

That is a misconception actually. Not everyone will feel dizzy or get a headache watching Active 3D for a long period. Only a certain percentage of people will feel that way. You may or may not be part of that group. :)
I personally have no problems watching Active 3D for long periods.

Well, I suggest u hit the shop floor, take that 3D goggles from the sales guy.. Sit on a comfy couch.. N inspect the experience..

@randomuser111.. Yea.. I know thats a personal experience... But, OP said he has a family..
So, TV needs to have a large "3D" viewing angle, not only a centre-spot...

@vaibhav20.. Tell us ur sitting arrangements and number of family members u have..
