LCD TV Flat Screen Review – LCD TV Flat Screen TVs Shopping Guide-(Part I)

Buying a new flat screen TVs can be very confusing. For the average consumer, the amount of different makes, models and technologies can be overwhelming. To make matters worse many sales representatives make matters worse by serving up an endless stream of technical data and buzz words that most people do not understand.

This guide was written to make the decision process easier when shopping for a TV. It explains the differences between the three different types of flat screen TVs, what technical specifications to look for, and finally some tips on how to pick the best performing model.

The first decision to make is what type of TV you want to get. Currently the three major classes of flat screen TVs include LCD TV, Plasma and Rear Projection. While large flat screen TVs were pioneered by plasma TVs, the current trend seems to be towards LCD.

A rear projection TV works by having the image projected onto a screen. As the name implies the image is projected from the back of the unit and onto a canvas. The major advantage of this technology is price. Rear projection TVs can offer very large pictures for prices that can't be rivaled by a plasma or LCD TV. Rear projection TVs become a real alternative if you are looking for screen sizes above 60 inches. The major disadvantages with this class of TV are the bulky size and picture quality. While still significantly smaller than a traditional tube TV, a rear projection TV is still much thicker and heavier than a plasma or LCD TV. A rear projection TV can not be wall mounted.

With the advances in HD broadcasting, one of the major technological steps forward is a jump in image quality. A rear projection TV will not be able to replicate the crisp clear images of a LCD TV or plasma TV. While the quality of the picture is still above a regular TV, the technology used to project the image makes it difficult to deliver images that are as vibrant and sharps as what the other classes of TVs can offer. One last disadvantage is that rear projection TVs are getting harder and harder to find. If you want to get one of these sets you might have a hard time finding a local retailer that still carries these TVs.

A Plasma TV works by energizing tiny pockets of gas that creates a bright light. This process is very quick wich leads to Plasma TVs having very good response times compared to many LCD TVs. Plasma TVs became very popular as the image quality of the earlier sets was unrivaled on the market. The images most of us associate with HDTV where introduced by plasma TVs.

The ultra sharp images and bright color rendering was revolutionary. Today the quality gap between plasma and LCD TVs is barely noticeable. Enthusiasts still favor plasma TVs for the better image quality, but for the regular consumer this difference will most often not be a major factor. Typically, a plasma TV will produce deeper black levels and have crisper contrast than a LCD TV.

Early Plasma TVs had a very limited life span, with models burning out in as little as a few years. The sets that are sold today have improved on this flaw, but due to the type of technology used you should still expect a plasma TV to have a limited life span. Another factor is that Plasma TVs tend to be more expensive than LCD screens. They are also heavier which makes wall mounting large plasma screens more difficult.

LCD TVs not only weigh less than a similar plasma TV they also use less energy, run cooler and perform better in bright light. Another advantage of the LCD TVs is that they generally cost less than a plasma TV. The trade off is mainly in picture quality as plasma screens are still holding on to a slim lead in image quality.

Early LCD TV models suffered from a noticeably grainy picture. Especially contrasted to the silky smooth images of a plasma TV the clearly visible pixels of the LCD TVs seemed to negate many of the advantages of the HDTV format over regular standard definition TVs. As the technology has improved LCD TVs look better. Still, keep this fact in mind as you are shopping for TVs. Make sure that you watch any model you are considering at the distance and angle you expect to view the TV in your own living room. In store displays are configured to show the TVs off from their best side and they might not perform as well in your house.
