The LCD TV is really starting to come of age and while they have
dominated the small screen market in recent times over plasma,
it seems it may not be too long before they challenge their arch
rival in the bigger screen areas.
In fact, proto type 55" LCD TVs have already been produced and
if the progress continues to gather momentum they could very
well challenge plasma in the area it is best known for - large
screen televisions.
In this article, let's take a look at some of the advantages of
an LCD TV and why you may consider one for you home over the
next few months.
Advantages Of LCDs
The price of LCD has always been a drawback for most home
theater enthusiasts. The money outlaid for a small screen
television doesn't seem to make sense when for less, you can
purchase a large screen plasma. As mentioned above, that
scenario is likely to change rapidly.
As far as advantages are concerned, here are just a few:
- Very good viewing experience. They will handle any lighting
conditions from a well lit room, an artificially lit room and
even a small light such as that from a lamp. In other words,
your picture wont attract that wash out effect or annoying glare.
- Viewing angle...yes, this was once a bug bear and was one of
the advantages enjoyed by plasma but times have changed and you
could now reasonably expect to be able to view your set from an
angle of 160 degrees.
- The quality of picture is excellent, even life-like. Color is
enhanced to incredible levels and makes the viewing experience
pleasurable. It's almost as if the screen is conveying a smooth
appearance and you won't see annoying lines in your picture.
- It is versatile. An LCD TV can double up as a computer monitor
as well as providing input for just about any video format
around.
- Very easy to set up even for someone who is technically
challenged. Devices of an external nature are always challenging
to someone with little technical knowledge but most LCD TV sets
come with built in tuners.
- You will generally expect to get a minimum of 60,000 hours of
viewing time from your LCD TV. This was one of their big
advantages over plasma although the latter is making up ground
in this area in rapid fashion.
