I found one post on this earlier, but it didn't have any responses.


I was planning on buying the new 55" Vizio 551XVT when it comes out in Sept. But a good friend of mine just told me that she is selling her less then a year old Samsung LN52A650.


I know comparing the two tvs is like Apples + Oranges.


But the few questions I have are:

1) Do you think the 3 extra inches makes that much of a difference?

2) This TV is going in my basement TV room with decent light control. Will the glossy screen be noticeable? (I know this is more a personal preference question)


And just add other comments you guys have.


Thanks!

I would consider the Samsung. Especially if you can get it at a reduced price! Vizio makes a great product and I have a Vizio as well as a Sanyo. Ask your friend how much that she wants for it. I do not believe that the lighting will be an issue since it is LCD. As far as the size, the larger size is nice, however, I would weigh the price difference.
