Ok, so you're looking to upgrade your TV to something much more impressive. Have you heard of Plasma and LCD, but you are not sure what is the best choice for you.
Ok, So let's take a look at some vital aspects of the TV …
Contrast
LCD TV's are much better than they used to be, but Plasma TV's still have the edge on the issue of contrast. This is due to the fact that the cells LCD is backlit, even when displaying black, while the plasma cells are completely off when displaying black.
Color
Plasma tends to be better for the color, but that depends on light, the manufacturer and model TV special. Color Plasma is better in rooms with normal lighting or less, while color LCD is better in rooms that are bright due to its brightness and built-in anti-glare technology.
Angles
LCD TV Viewing angles are better than they used to have, and you can expect the best models of LCD HDTV to be about 120-130 degree viewing angles. However, Plasma TV still win this time.
Computer Use
LCD screens are best for computer use, because they are great for display still image, without blinking, and most importantly, no screen burn-in as can happen with plasma screens. They also are great at displaying large amounts of data with wonderful precision and clarity, for example, large spreadsheets.
Fast Action Sequences
Plasma wins when it comes to fast action, due to its ability to handle fast moving images, and also their levels of high contrast. LCD screens are better than they used to be action fast, but not yet well above the standard that the plasma has been defined.
Consumption
Use approximately LCD half the power than their Plasma counterparts. This is due to the fact that LCD is illuminated by fluorescent lighting, while Plasmas use a lot of electricity to light each individual pixel, itself.
Screen Resolution
LCD win here, because they have higher resolutions screen by screen size. For example, a 40-inch LCD would have a resolution of at least 1366 x 768, while a screen 42 inch plasma would have a resolution only 1024 x 768.
In Conclusion
So what kind of HDTV should you choose? Well, think about what you're doing great likely to be using it for. For example, if you're a fan of watching fast action movies in the dark, or you're a sports fan, then Plasma is the choice for you. However, if you are more shows at a slow pace, or would like to be able to use the screen for computer use, then the LCD is you need to get started.
