3D Tv's - Active shutter vs. Passive?

[rob quilter]

I'm going to be buying a 3D tv soon, I've been lots of research online about passive vs. active shutter glasses. But there's lots of conflicting info, some saying active is better, some saying passive is better.

Can anyone shed any light on which to go for?

I'll be going for a 46" and mainly using it for films, but will be doing some gaming too.

active being with batteries and non being with just glasses?

active all the way. its a totally different experience. dont be looking elsewhere though. epilepsy awaits


imho wait a while and get one of the new multi layer screens. thats 3d with no glasses.

3d tv = Clubbing Eddy. My dad spent ages trying to find one. Got a Sony with the active glasses and its never in focus unless your perfectly still and correct distance. Hd anyday over 3d.

im still very happy with my CRT panasonic


i hate the look of HD and all the other types coming out. if i wanted to see the sweat coming out of some actors pours i would have become a director.

Unless you need one hang on a while as said above tvs without the need for glasses is in the pipe line if you have kids get the one with cheap glasses

I can imagine the ones where you don't need glasses with f*ck with your eyes

@rob: they layer multiphasic led sheets together. iv seen one 5 thick so far. the computer then plays the main sequence on the middle sheet and adds depth with the two either side. its pretty cool but it still does not beat my CRT

@toadster: yes mate, keep it till it goes pop.
