HD 1080p televisions are produced by many different companies that range from low end to high end. Toshiba, LG, Samsung and Sony all offer reliable HD 1080p television sets. Coby and Sceptre offer lower to mid tier products.
In my opinion some of the best brands for LED TVs that are at least 55 inches are; Samsung UN55B7000 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV and Samsung UN55B8000 55-Inch 1080p 240 Hz LED HDTV.
Some good brands of LCD TV's are; Sony, Toshiba and Samsung. LG are also a good brand for a decent price. They all have exceptional display qualities, and are long lasting reliable brands of TV industry.
They still sell some Television set in 780p but most stores sell 1080P televisions because eventually all televisions are going to have to be in 1080P.
There are many different HD TV's available with 1080p. Some of the top rated HD TV's with these specification are made by Samsung or the Sony company.
Plasma TV 1080p is made by numerous companies, as the "p" simply refers to the progressive type of televisions. Some of the companies that make this television are Panasonic, LG, and Samsung.
Some places that have reasonably priced 1080p televisions are Best Buy, Walmart, and Amazon. Other places include Target, Sears, Overstock, and Newegg.
Sometimes it depends in what kind of TV you have, some TV's prefere 1080i to 1080p for example. But if you have a very good HD TV then 1080P is the best resolution to pick for High def Xbox 360 gaming. Hope this helped.
An Xbox 360 is capable of playing HD movies as long as you have an "Xbox 360 HD player." The Xbox 360 itself can be viewed and played in the HD content. You will need some HD equipment which includes a HD TV (some will say HD ready - meaning 720p, others will say full HD - meaning 1080p). After getting a TV, use a HDMI cable to link your xbox to the TV. This will now show you HD. Any video game can be viewed at the full 1080p HD.
1080p and 1080i both refer to the format of a video signal. Any HD television will receive the signal and display it. If the television reports the signal standard being received, it will let you know what the signal is. Therefore, the television cannot be changed from one standard to another as it simply handles the incoming signal. Currently, broadcast HD signals are almost exclusively 1080i with a few formatted as 720p. Both are considered full HD even though the resolutions are different. 1080p is found on some local sources such as games consoles and Bluray players but has not yet made it to mainstream broadcast services.
You will need a source that outputs at 1080p. Most cable boxes/ satellite boxes do not have the ability to output 1080p (Their native resolution being 1080i/720p) Blu-ray players including the PS3, the Xbox360 along with some other streaming video devices are the only way to get a 1080p signal on your TV. Keep in mind that your content will also have to be capable of 1080p. Some video games are capable, all Blu-rays are as well. A DVD in a Blu-ray player will NOT give you 1080p.
The Toshiba 46sI412u is already a 1080p LED TV. If you are using this TV with a cable box, you need to do fix the picture quality on the cable box. Some cable boxes will automatically detect the picture quality.
1080p is not currently being used in live television production and is not being broadcast at present. Broadcasters are still migrating to 1080i and 720p formats and the majority of HD production equipment will not support 1080p. No doubt, it will come in time but expect broadcast 1080p to be some years away yet. The Sony PS3 boasts the ability to deliver 1080p as do certain other local devices. Personally, I am not aware of any 1080p material that is commonly available, even on disc. More will become available in the future but the push towards 1080i needs to be largely completed before broadcasters and film distributors look seriously at 1080p as the preferred format. It would be useful for anyone with additional 1080p devices for demostic use to list some here.
