Mom's 10-year old 32" is dying so it's time to get her a new TV.
She has a FireTV for streaming and a blu-ray player for discs, attached to a Sony receiver then to the old TV, so a typical setup. No gaming, no sports watching.
I say Best Buy since she doesn't drive and I'm in a different state, so having someone who can deliver, unbox, and haul away her old TV is better for her than ordering from Amazon, etc. for a doorstep drop-off.
Best Buy lists 28 models in the 45 - 55" range for under $750, that's a lot to choose from
Any suggestions on models / brands to avoid would be helpful too.
Samsung 48" - UN48J5200AFXZA - $430
Samsung 50" - UN50J6200AFXZA - $500
Sony 48"- KDL48W650D - $480
Sony 49" - XBR49X700D - $650
LG 49" - 49UH6030 - $500
LG 49" - 49UH6100 - $600
Sharp - 50" - LC-50LB481U - $380
Toshiba 49" - 49L621U - $350
Toshiba 50" - 50L420U - $350
Vizio 48" - D48N-E0 - $350
Vizio 48" - E48-D0 - $380
