Which TV is better Samsung or Panasonic. According to expert reviews, I will answer what the most reliable and best TVs on the market

It was simple enough - the main difference consisted in the size of the screen diagonal. Today manufacturers compete with each other, offering customers model with different functionality and display technologies. The 2019 rating of TV manufacturers is designed to help determine which brand of TV is the best and reliable currently.

The Japanese brand "Sony" is one of the most famous manufacturers of household appliances in Russia since the USSR. He still leads the top brands of televisions for purchase in our country. This brand is famous, first of all, excellent quality and pleases those buyers who are willing to pay for this good price.

In 2017, Sonya released the first models with OLED technology based on organic LEDs, which immediately appeared their fans. Currently, the cost of such TVs is sufficiently high due to the need to acquire matrices from other firms and the traditional markup for a popular brand.

Sony has a line of budget televisions. Among them is to choose models, the cost of which exceeds 25 thousand rubles. The pluses of such TVs include the presence of the SmartTV function. They have a weak processor, there is no Full HD and the standard rapid frequency of 50 Hz. Competitors for the same cost are offered more interesting solutions.

In the latest models, AMBIENT MODE branded technology is implemented, which makes it possible to display the screen saver, weather forecast or news.

LCD screens with S-PVA technology from "Samsung" have deep enough black flowers. A similar matrix is \u200b\u200bequipped with professional monitors used for installation of films. The disadvantage of the S-PVA display can be called a small viewing angle.

TV models are available with an increasing diagonal size (up to 80 inches) and QLED technology (on quantum points). The novelty is the "One Visible Connection" cable, which simultaneously connects the power to the TV and the rest of the equipment.

From the remote control, you can not only manage different, but also create a real high-tech "smart" house, feeding signals with video cameras and household appliances.

Such products remain in the elite segment of household appliances. Gradually, with the improvement of technologies, their cost decreases and as a result now the OLED screen is embedded in some LG budget models.

The real revolution can be called the technology "Nano Sell" (monitor with a large viewing angle), which gives the opportunity to watch the ether from any angle. It provides accurate color reproduction even at an angle of 60 degrees.

It is worth noting the brand design from "LG" - this is a super-thin case on a graceful tripod stand with the ability to hang a TV on the wall.

The company's engineers have developed their own technology - this is the background dynamic backlight "Ambilight" capable of automatically adjusting the color gamut.

TVs from "Philips" are equipped with a type of matrix with a large viewing angle. This allows you to look at the screen from any angle. The disadvantages of the LCD monitor include overestimated black brightness and a long response time - 5 ms.

  • The company "BBK" is focused on the sale of inexpensive household appliances in Russia and the CIS countries. She produces traditional LCD TVs with LED backlight. The screen diagonal varies from 15 to 3 inches. All models are equipped with a rack and can be attached to the wall.

    TVs of the "Uno" series are distinguished by the finest frame around the monitor - for full immersion in what is happening when watching movies. The housing is thin, in a varied color solution: from white to black with a silver tint. Distinctive feature of the VKK - TVs with a built-in DVD player.

    Summing up, it should be noted that the best functionality and SmartTV in the Korean firms "LG" and "Samsung". They are famous for a bright, but unnatural picture. The quality and realistic image of the image is the Konk Japanese manufacturers of type "Sony" and elite "Phillips" models.

    Available at the price, but simple in terms of the functionality of the model "Telefuken", "Hyundai" "BBK", "Supra" are suitable in the case when only the essential channels are planned.

    Choosing the best TV in quality, it is worth looking at its advantages and familiarize yourself with the characteristics of the proposed models, and not to rush to overpay for the "loud" name.

    Today I would like to finally close this issue by providing the ranking of the best TV manufacturers in 2017. All firms listed below differ not only by good quality assembly, but also a wide range of models, both budgetary and expensive!

    Understand, the most best TV firm is the Samsung manufacturer. The Korean Industrial Concern since 2010 opened the production of his digital technology in Russia, so that you can currently buy a multifunctional, thin TV for small money. SAMSUNG TV technology is considered the most popular among all segments of the population. Their best model of 32 inches is considered a device with an LCD display and LED backlight - Samsung UE32K5500AU, which can be used in 2017 for 24 thousand rubles.

    Of the benefits of the manufacturer, you should also select the presence of a large number of service centers in the cities, as well as the convenient SMART TV interface. The disadvantage is too bright colors on some displays, but this problem has almost eliminated.

    Sony

    The second position of our rating is not less popular manufacturer of household appliances - Sony. The main, distinctive advantages of TVs of this Japanese brand are an exquisite design, good assembly quality (because they are collected in Slovakia) and the multifunctionality of practical all modern models.

    Of the disadvantages it should be noted a slightly increased cost of technology, relative to the leader of our rating - Samsung. This is due to the fact that the assembly of the Slovak or the same low-depth. In general, if you do not trust the domestic manufacturer, it is better to overpay and choose Sony TV, which takes second place in our ranking.

    LG.

    Our top 3 is closed by another Korean household appliances company, which also hit. The LG brand is famous for the fact that all products are optimal for the price and quality. Those. The price segment is in the middle between elite and budget brands. A certain advantage of LG TVs can be called the best 3D and Direct-LED backlight.

    Philips.

    Moving to the end of the ranking, one more good brand of TVs should be highlighted - Philips. The business card of the television equipment of this brand considers the Ambilight LED backlight, which you can see the example below.

    In addition, the Philips manufacturer got into our 2017 rating due to the fact that the model range of TVs is distinguished by a wide range of functions for a relatively low price. The only thing that spoils the opinion of this brand, judging by the reviews on the thematic forums, the menu on the "Philips" menu slides a little. But, again, the negative reviews about Philips can be found a small share.

    Panasonic

    The last step in the top 5 we left for the popular brand of digital technology - the Japanese company Panasonic. As in the situation with Phillips, Panasonic TVs belong to the category of rather reliable at a not such a high price. Good picture quality and modern design leave only a positive impression of the brand.

    So that he meets all your functionality requirements. But today we will talk about concrete stamps and models that are in the market. What is the difference? Which TV is better? Should I take popular TV with a lot of reviews or buy something not so famous? It is difficult to advise here: everyone has their own experience. We briefly describe the most worthy TVs, according to numerous buyers of online stores. And let's start your overview with brands.

    Most popular brands

    It is difficult to call the leader among producers, as all firms are constantly improving their televisions, releasing new models. And yet, one of the most popular brands is the company Samsung. Buy the TV is this brand most often seek buyers.

    Recently, the brand has pleased its fans with such models as Samsung 40F7000, Samsung 50F5000 and Samsung 46F6500. All these TVs won excellent feedback from their owners.

    Further, LG TVs are followed, followed by the brand Sony, Philips, Panasonic and Toshiba. The remaining manufacturers are significantly behind the favorites. Very cheap stamps in many reviews are not even considered, as they have poor build quality and often break. We will not take them into account: Let's stop at the leaders. But first will define the size.

    Diagonal - the basis of the choice

    It is from the diagonal that depends on which TV is better to choose: LCD, "plasma" or LED screen. For example, the LCD TV of a small size will easily hide its competitors on image quality, however, there are plasma TVs among large models. Did you decide which TV to buy? Then let's compare different models.

    32 inches

    Pay attention to Sony KDL-32W705B. This is an LCD TV with the ability to access the Internet. Screen resolution - 1920 per 1080. Great for bedroom or kitchen. You can attach to the wall. Users marked its light weight and good image quality. Complain of incomplete instructions, in which more attention is paid to the wall mount than the description of the settings. However, it is quite simple to figure it out.

    Also a good model of this size is considered LG 32LB650V. With it, you can watch SMART-TV. A little better sound quality. Owners like a bright and juicy image. In addition, they note that these TVs are better coping with "heavy" films, allowing you to fully enjoy fascinating scenes. The disadvantages include a remote control without highlighting and slow work of Web OS.

    He entered the top three and Samsung with its Samsung UE32H6410 model. This is a LCD TV, control using voice and gestures. There is an Internet access and the opportunity to watch movies from a flash drive. The easiest model of three, so you can buy it for giving. Praise image quality and a large number of functions. Complain of inconvenient management and cost.

    With this table, you will easier understand which of the models is better:

    40-42 inches

    TVs are 40-42 inches better to take for the living room, where there is enough space. Among such models leads LG 42LB671V. Users praise the convenience of control, chic sound and, of course, bright image. In the kit there are several 3D glasses, but for a long time to watch movies in them too hard for the eyes. Of the disadvantages - small dark spots at the edges, which, however, are not too noticeable.

    Sony KDL-42W817B TV has a stylish design and many features. There is support for Wi-Fi, Smart-TV. Image quality at the highest level: we can say that he has gained competitors. The sound is better than similar models. But with the control and settings, the real misfortune: Instructions are incomplete, users have to be dealt with themselves.

    Troika samsung UE40H6410 - a diagonal of 40 inches (102 cm), LCD screen with LED backlight. To buy such a model will be released a bit more expensive, but it is better and easier for control, compared with the analogues. You can use as a monitor to view movies. Users praise fast download video from the Internet. From complaints prevails discontent with the price.

    For convenience, we collected these TVs in the table:

    46-51 inch

    These are televisions for movie lovers, as it is better to buy a smaller model for watching gear. The top three includes SAMSUNG PE51H4500, LG 49UB850V and Sony KDL-48W605B:

    • Samsung PE51H4500 is a plasma TV with good image quality and excellent sound. Such a model can even be bought for a bar, as it perfectly transmits dynamic plots. But his weight is quite large: first find out which walls are suitable for fastening;
    • LG 49UB850V - LCD TV with LED illumination. There is an Internet access and the ability to control gestures and voice. As for the setting, it may seem uneasy, since the instruction is difficult to understand.
    • Sony KDL-48W605B TV praise for a clear instruction inside the device and a convenient remote. There are no comments on the quality of sound or images - everyone has only pleasant impressions. But the stand is weak: there is a risk chance to hook a TV.

    Obviously, LG, Samsung and Sony brands hold leadership in the market. Sony is most praised for the quality of the image, Samsung is considered the most reliable (but also expensive), and LG can offer the most optimal prices. But finally choose the model you will have to still independently, because the choice is really huge. And we wish you good shopping!

    Best manufacturers of inexpensive TVs

    Thomson SA Group of Companies begins its history from the distant 1914. At first, the US-French enterprise specialized in the production of equipment for filming. However, then the range of the company has expanded significantly. Including on the shelves of stores began to appear Thomson TVs. Alas, but with the onset of the era of LCD TVs, this direction has become unprofitable. As a result, it was decided to give the production of such devices of the Chinese company TCL Group. From now on, it is she who makes the creation and distribution of Thomson TVs worldwide.

    Mostly, the Chinese make a bet on the model with a low price tag - the cost of devices in Russia varies from 8 to 16 thousand rubles. In the overwhelming majority of cases, products under the Thomson brand is able to boast only HD-resolution. However, in our rating, this trading mark would not have fallen if there were no devices with fairly advanced characteristics. In particular, some models have a large screen with full HD resolution. Moreover, they can boast SMART TV support! However, it is necessary to understand that the Chinese have to save on RAM and the processor, so it is not necessary to count on the fast work of smart functionality. Also, you do not need to wait from such TVs a large number of TV tuners (but with the support of digital standards they usually have everything in order).

    Buying recommendation: Thomson T40D21SF-01B is for sale for relatively small money. At the same time, it has a 40-inch screen, so that the TV becomes a good choice for the living room or bedroom. The resolution is 1920x1080 pixels, which will definitely arrange all who still want to deal with 4K-content. The device has a very thin framework, it can also boast two independent TV tules. A pleasant bonus can be considered a large number of connectors - three HDMI- and two USB-nests are rarely found in TVs with such a price tag.

    BBK.

    The Chinese company BBK Electronics was founded in 1995. She quickly managed to become the largest manufacturer of consumer electronics on the territory of the Middle Kingdom. In the first half of the 2000s, many Russians brand BBK was known for all sorts of DVD players. Well, when the world of televisions began to move on to liquid crystal technology, the Chinese quickly mastered the new direction. Now BBK TVs are present in all major retail chains, and even in very small stores selling like products. And if the original Chinese manufacturer specialized in budget models, now its range has become much wider - the flagship devices can be easily found, the cost of which will exceed 50 thousand rubles.

    BBK TVs are almost impossible to summarize. Many models are very different from each other. Similar to them can be considered only in one. If the device supports Smart TV, then the operating system will be used exclusively android. This is explained by the fact that the Chinese have no funds to support their own platform. Otherwise, Chinese TVs can be completely different. In particular, some of them have a 4K-resolution screen, and even with an increased frame rate. Also, the devices extending under the BBK brand have different diagonal, the number of connectors, the number of supported digital TV standards and many other parameters. As for the quality of the assembly, in this regard, BBK Electronics tries to get closer to world leaders. However, until it does not work, so when buying a TV, it is recommended to examine it in detail.

    Recommendation for purchase: BBK 22lem-1027 / FT2C can be a good choice for the cottage or children's room. This is a compact model, which includes a display with a diagonal of 21.5 inches (55 cm). It is important that the display of this model has a permission of Full HD. At a cost of 8 thousand rubles. It surprises. Saved the same Chinese manufacturer on the number of connectors and TV tuners. It pleases that the device does not support the DVB-T2 standard. That is, to view the digital TV, the prefix is \u200b\u200bdefinitely not needed.

    Supra

    The Supra brand at one time was created exclusively for home appliance sales in the territory of the CIS countries. The production of the first devices began in the 90s. Since then, the range has expanded significantly, and some devices even began to receive the title "Product of the Year" in Russia - in particular, this concerns one of the smart TVs. For many years, under the trademark of Supra, over 10 thousand models of different products were released - these are microwaves, kitchen combines, DVD players and other techniques.

    Brand owners do focus on domestic electronics, spreading at a very low price. In particular, now easily can be found SUPRA LCD TVs, the cost of which does not exceed 8 thousand rubles. Of course, it will be quite compact devices, the screen diagonal of which is 22-23 inches. However, even they often can please the resolution of Full HD! As for slightly more expensive models, many of them get Android as an operating system, which allows you to use a TV for online viewing of various content.

    Most SUPRA TVs can boast modern appearance. It is also almost impossible to find a device extending under the Saupra trademark that would not have the support of digital TV - at least essential and cable standards. In a word, you should not be afraid of buying such a TV. This is the optimal option for installation in the kitchen or in a children's room. But for the living room, it is still better to buy a TV from a South Korean or Japanese company, even if this acquisition will cost much more.

    Buying Recommendation: Supra STV-LC40LT0020F has a 40-inch 1080p resolution. This makes the TV with an excellent choice for most Russian apartments. The device supports all digital TV standards, including satellite. Another advantages of this model can write two independent TV tuner, low power consumption and high-quality assembly. Several saddles only the absence of Smart TV.

    Another brand, products under which applies mainly in the CIS. Initially, various accessories for motorists were produced under this brand - for example, car radio and appropriate acoustics. Now the range of goods under the above-mentioned brand has become much wider. In the trading household appliances stores it is easy to detect microwave ovens, multicookers, radio tape recorders and, of course, Mystery TVs. Place In our ranking, this manufacturer was honored due to a swittle assembly. However, most of all the buyer must please the low cost - usually Mystery TVs are worth not more than 10 thousand rubles. Of course, there are more expensive models, but they do not use special demand.

    Please note that some devices are displayed on the TFT TN technology. If you see this item in characteristics, it is better to go to another model, unless you want to use the TV only as a monitor. The fact is that such a matrix sins with minimal viewing angles. Fortunately, modern products of Mystery increasingly receives an IPS display at their disposal (its production is ordered from a third-party supplier). As for Smart TV, this feature is equipped with a minimum number of mystery TVs. As an operating system, it is easy to guess, Android.

    Perhaps the devices under the brand name Mystery are well suited for children's room, kitchen or cottage. It's nice that they most often have a resolution of 1080p, and at least two HDMI connector are usually present on their back wall, which allows you to connect the game console and something else. Please note that there are no 4K-TV in the company's assortment, so it's better to look for something from another manufacturer.

    Buying recommendation: MyStery MTV-3230LT2 is a wonderful option for a children's room and some other small room. At a cost of 10-11 thousand rubles. TV offers a 32-inch HD-resolution display. A subtle framing gives the device a modern appearance (and this despite the very long-time announcement). It is possible to note a fairly good sound, which takes two speakers with a power of 8 W each.

    The history of the German company Telefunken begins in 1903. It was then that the opening of a separate enterprise took place, which initially belonged to AEG and Siemens & Halske companies. In the future, the enterprise's right was fully redeemed by AEG leadership. Telefunken brand is known to everyone who is interested in the history of televisions. The fact is that the German company has been directly involved in the development of a pan-European television standard PAL. It should not be noticed that Telefunken owns more than 20 thousand patents - of course relating to not only the television area.

    The rights to produce LCD TVs under the Telefunken brand provided by Turkish Holding Profilio-Telra. For a long time, such devices have not really known to a wide consumer, since their circulation was extremely small. However, TELEFUNKEN TVs are now enjoying enough demand, including buying them in Russian stores. It may seem that such devices should focus on a very low cost, but it is not at all. Of course, find models with price tag below 10 thousand rubles. It is quite possible, but it will be very small and outdated devices. The most customers like televisions whose price tag is located in the area between 12 and 25 thousand rubles. With this cost, you can count on the permission of Full HD, support all digital TV standards and a sufficiently large number of connectors. Many TVs are obtained and SMART TV - Android based function.

    Waiting for Telefunken televisions to support some unusual technologies, of course, not worth it. Turkish Holding does not invest any noticeable money in research and development, using mainly the fact that is available on the market. But it carries out strict quality control, in connection with which the TVs are able to boast a long service life.

    Buying recommendation: Telefunken TF-LED48S39T2S is very popular. In his favor, the owners of hotels, restaurants and supermarkets make their choice. Buy it, of course, for residential premises. This TV has a 48-inch screen with full HD resolution. On the rear wall you can find three USB and HDMI connector. You can not yet note the availability of the Android operating system here, which allows you to visit online cinemas and use other functions. In a word, a very good set at a cost of 24-25 thousand rubles.!

    In our rating, one company has already been told, which initially specialized in the production of automotive acoustics. These same words are true for Harper. The difference is that the Taiwanese enterprise focused on the wishes of specific customers. A little later, the company decided to enter the mass market, offering not only acoustic systems, but also ordinary headphones. Since 2014, sales of goods have begun in Russia.

    Now in stores you can find Harper LCD TVs. Oddly enough, in their popularity, they already catch up with products from much more well-known competitors (far from the Japanese-Korean Trio). It must be customers like low cost, usually ranged from 6 to 18 thousand rubles. For such money, such TVs offer exactly what the consumer would like to receive - a 1080p resolution, from two to three HDMI connectors, a thin frame of the screen and the maximum viewing angles. Also even inexpensive Harper TVs have decent speakers, thanks to which the desire does not occur to connect the external acoustics.

    There is a company assortment and more expensive models. They can even be endowed with 4K-resolution and a pair of independent TV tuners, which allows you to watch and essential and satellite TV. The largest Harper TVs can boast a 54-inch screen. However, it is necessary to understand that such devices are not too popular, in connection with which it is quite difficult to find them in stores.

    Do we recommend Harper products to buy? Perhaps yes, especially if the appropriate TV is offered with a decent discount. It is unlikely that such a device will seriously disappoint you. No easy people write reviews mainly in a positive way. But you need to understand that the cheapest TVs under the Harper brand have completely weak characteristics, and their screen is sinned not only by the resolution of 720p, but also narrow viewing angles.

    Buying recommendation: Harper 43F660T is sold at about 18-19 thousand rubles, offering a 43-inch screen with a resolution of 1080p for this money and maximum viewing angles. Connecting additional devices is carried out by three HDMI nockets. For external drives, a pair of USB ports is intended. Smart TV is not here, but the ethereal and cable standards of digital TV are supported. You can also note the presence of an acoustic system here, the power of which reaches 20 W. It's amazing that such a large TV did not work hard - its weight does not exceed 6.9 kg.

    Best manufacturers of premium and middle-class TVs

    For many years, SAMSUNG Electronics produces the largest number of TVs. But the company began with rice flour - it was for her production whether Bon Chchol founded the factory in 1938. Now it is difficult to imagine the type of home electronics, which would not be made by the South Korean Chebolam. Unlike competitors, the company seeks to carry out not only the assembly of a particular device, but also produce components for it. In particular, the semiconductor unit produces chipsets, memory modules and many other components for smartphones. Also, everyone knows that it is Samsung that produces the largest amount of amoled displays.

    But back to the TVs. The company made a bet on them after the ELT technology began to leave the market, squeezing out liquid crystal. Almost all modern technologies are available to South Koreans, so expensive Samsung TVs do not sin with the lack of their support. The manufacturer even develops the Tizen's own operating system, on the basis of which the SMART TV function is implemented. Also, such devices are capable of boasting high-speed Wi-Fi, a powerful processor, wide viewing angles and a large number of connectors. As for the quality of the assembly, it most often does not cause any complaints, although a certain percentage of marriage on the market is still present.

    The South Korean manufacturer tries to achieve the most realistic color reproduction. Unfortunately, the creation of OLED screens is not available to him, therefore it uses a completely different technology that received the name QLED. Its essence lies in the production of displays consisting of the so-called quantum dots. Illumination in such a screen if used, then in the minimum degree. As a result, black colors appear black on the display. But there are QLED-TVs are noticeably more expensive than their LCD fellow - usually their price tag starts from 60-70 thousand rubles.

    Buying recommendation: Samsung QE55Q6FAM is an excellent QLED TV, the cost of which does not fly to heaven. Of course, 90 thousand rubles. "It's still expensive, but for this money you will get a high-class device with close to the ideal color rendition. Also, this model will not be brazed than cheap TVs with SMART TV support sree. Well, a curious feature of the South Korean device is the presence of three TV tuners at once. This allows you to connect to the TV and the essential antenna, and the "cable", and the satellite "plate". The screen diagonal in this model is 54.6 inches (139 cm) - for the children's room or office space, this is definitely not the best choice.

    Sony

    The history of Sony Corporation starts from May 7, 1946, when the production of transistor radio receivers began in the dilapidated Japan. For many years, the company tried to reduce the size of such devices. Also, the Japanese gradually expanded the range of manufactured equipment. For example, in 1958, the company was released its first transistor TV. And ten years later, colored Kinescopic TVs Sony Trinitron began to appear. Soon, it was the Japanese TVs that became a standard of high-quality image. And now it seems to many that Sony TVs give the most juicy picture.

Did not forget the manufacturer and the Smart TV - in Panasonic products, this feature is based on the Firefox OS operating system. At one time, she did not find a place on smartphones, but now it can enjoy the owners of televisions.

The fact is that the Chinese, together with the rights of the brand, got all the Dutch technologies. In particular, the top models continue to receive an Ambilight backlight. After looking at the resulting effect in such a picture, you can literally fall in love.
