Ignore all the marketing hype and sales nonsense... just go look at as many screens as you can, and pick the one your eyes like the best..
This isn't possible. Most TVs are not set up in rooms with appropriate lighting nor are most TVs tweaked for picture quality.
That's why you ask for the remote, so you can mess with the settings yourself. Even given the sub-optimal conditions in a big box, there's no substitute for looking at a screen with your own eyes.
Agreed. In my experience, you'll quickly narrow down a handful of models based on size and price. And as you visit a few showrooms, overall differences and picture characteristics WILL emerge. The exact result of how the picture would appear in you own home is irrelevant considered in that context.
