Q:
the dynamic contrast ratio is different between the 2 models, and also the brightness -- 180 compared to 240. all else seems the same, except this one is 1/2" smaller, diagonally, the other has an extra HDMI input, and the speakers are a bit better (8W compared to 5W).
i don't care about the 1/2"; probably wouldn't need the extra HDMI; and doubt that 3W of speaker power would make the other model's sound much better (both probably need external speakers). but what is the dynamic contrast ratio and brightness?
