Hi everyone, do any of you have an recommendation for a HDTV for Wii U? I'm basically looking for a TV with a decent response time so the visuals and the sounds that are coming from the TV will be synchronized with the ones from the gamepad. I'm asking that because I tried to hook my Wii U to a kind of new LED television in my house and even when I change its setting to game mode it still has a little annoying noticeable lag which cause the sounds from the TV sound like echos. If you have any television you can recommend which doesn't have this problem please let me know

I use my computer monitor and have no problems, even using a 10m HDMI cable. I suspect most people on here don't have this problem since it's the first time I've heard it mentioned.

From my experience, Panasonic, Sony and Dynex TVs work fine. I own a Dynex TV myself and it works great with my Wii U

I can't say much about the other brands, so don't take this post as a "oh, those other brands must suck then"

Wii U looks very nice on my 24" Sony display that I also use for my PS3 and PC has a 4ms response. But my LG 47" (47LK520) has a 2.4ms with 120 hz. Wii U looks best on my LG and I'm split between the gamepad and my PS3 display though I can play ACIII in 3d if I want.

Hii-Ya!

I don't notice any lag with my 56" 2007 Sharp Aquos. Looks very nice in HD too.

I'm pretty okay.

sound waves from your TV speakers take a lot longer to arrive at your ears than sound from the Gamepad in front of you. This delay is perceived as echo

Thanks everyone, is there any way to know one television's response time before buying it? anyway it has nothing to do with the sound waves, I checked a Wii U someone else has and the TV's sound was perfectly synchronized with his gamepad...

I have a Samsung 46" LED and it looks great. Though it does have a slight sound delay, it really doesn't bother me that much. However, when I hook up my soundbar to it, the delay goes away.

I have the cheapest 42" Philips plasma I could find in 2007 and it works a treat. I have no clue what I will replace it with in a few years time when it should potentially hit mean time to failure, however I figure if I stick with Plasma or OLED I'll be okay.

My 39 inch Seiki LED works just fine for both my PS3 and Wii U, I have no complaints.

I use a 42" Sony Bravia. It's 1080p, 120 hz and does a spectacular job.

Reviews on AvForums and HDTVTest post input lag results, so take a look at those.
