nothing could do it in 09 , even tvs costing 2 to 3 times as much couldnt beat the kuros picture quality , so whats going to beat it this year ?? panasonic ?? with some ex pioneer boffins involvement in this years models , you would assume they have the best chance , but will pana have cut corners to keep costs down ?? can they make a tv , better than the kuro , for less money ??
sony ?? hmmm , maybe , their first use of edge led lighting should really help their already very good black levels , they are overcoming lcds motion issues better than the rest , and they arguably need this year to be succesful , more than their competition , could they have the new , kuro killer , up their sleeve ??
what about samsung ?? their plasmas are very good , apart from black levels , but i dont see them overtaking the kuro this year , what about their edge led sets ?? very good last year , and samsung have been making led tvs longer than the rest , id say they will get very close..
that leaves philips , some say the 9704 is as good as a kuro , (dont mention the price) but will they make something better again ?? or will the 9704 be philips flagship for a few years like sonys x4500 ??
or , will any tv ever be much better than the kuro ?? can they actually get better ?? yes they can add widgets , dlna , dongles , face recognition etc etc , but will any tv , oled and 4k2k aside , have a better picture than the kuro , using the tech available right now ?? i doubt it , i think there may be a few that catch up , but in six months time , i doubt ill be reading about a kuro killer ....
