Sharp LC-70LE660U or Vizio E70-C3

I have these both TV and not sure which to keep, any thoughts here would be a lifesaver.

Per my assessment:
Sharp....is sharper imagewise but SOE is notorious with fix via firmware upgrades. Has a power supply issue as well, couldn't turn it Off or On using remote or the button on the tv, must use the good old plug.

Vizio..........not quite impressive but reliable? I dont know. I just know that issue may arise after 1yr or 2yrs of use.

PLease advise POLKIES

    Well, since you "have these both tv" i would suggest scrap them both and get something reliable....crisis averted!

    Out of these both TVs I'd think imagine keep the Vizio.

    That's a lot of scratch to spend on something ur not really satisfied with. I agree, return them both. Surely there are other 70 inch options? Heck, I would rather go down to 65 and have something I was really happy with.

    Agreed with the above comments.

    I for one am not a fan of either company. Get rid of them both and get a Sony.

    If you want to go big TV's on the cheap, Visio is hard to beat, but you do get a cheaper set all around. Their top TV's aren't bad though. Sony or Samsung would be my preference in that order.

    Since all TV's are going computer based, all TV's are going to come with glitches, firmware upgrades needed, etc. None are built to last anymore....which is depressing seeing what they cost these days. Sony and Samsung seem to have the better quality though if 3d is important to you, I think Samsung does it better than the Sony's. Sony however has the better picture but not by much. Both will upscale 1080p content to close to 4k resolution which is a big plus when done right .

    Speaking of 3D, does LG's 3D tv sets even compare to the Sony or Samsung 3D reproduction?

    It's a crap shoot really. The higher end models usually do well with 3d across all brands. If your shooting for cheap though, that's what your gonna get.....along with motion blur, back light bleeding, quirky internet connections.
