Purchasing a television is a lot different now than previously. When shopping for a new television back in the day, you only had two basic decisions to make. The first being, how large of a TV you actually need or want. The second, being how much money do you have or want to spend on the television. If you were also in the market for a home theater set up, you still only needed to know how big your TV was going to be.
Now, there are more questions surrounding the purchase of a new television. The technology in relation to televisions is constantly evolving, and can seem pretty complicated to a normal consumer. You run the risk of buying something that can be quickly outdated. You now need to think about other things besides the size of the screen. You need to know what kind of applications you will be using your TV for. That can be games, movies or just watching regular TV. Then you need to decide if you should invest in a DVD player that upverts to 1080p or just choose BluRay. All these decisions start after you choose your television.
Choosing between plasma and LCD or DLP is where you will normally begin. There are good and bad about both. It also depends on how you will be watching your TV. What kind of entertainment value you want out of it. If you are gaming and watching movies, that will mean you want a better quality TV. Plasma has higher contrasts between colors when compared to LCD. It also provides clearer picture in regards to quick moving objects. The same image can have a ghosting effect on an LCD. The kinks are being worked out of this fairly quickly, as the LCD is getting a better refresh rate that is rivaling the plasmas.LCD tvs are relatively less expensive than a plasma the same size.
Plasma televisions, because of the way they are designed, look best in darker rooms where the colors can be more vivid and clear. LCDs work well in lighted rooms and are a little cheaper and can be in any room of the house. Now for DLP, you have another choice. The image is actually made up of tiny mirrors and the picture quality is nearly as good as plasma or LCD.
The DLP sizes can be much bigger than the plasma and even bigger still than the LCD. For true HD quality on a television under 42 inches, the LCD is the winner. If you are looking for BluRay or true HD in a smaller size, this will be a better choice for cost purposes as well as truest picture quality.
