If you were to do a small poll on what the most important features about a TV are, most people will tell you its size and price. A few may talk about picture quality, but it is often in relation to the size rather than the technological capabilities of the TV. We will explain similar to our TechWorld features.
Well, today we are going to turn you into proper television connoisseurs. There is so much complexity and function in a TV that influences the picture quality and price. It is these things that you need to focus on to make sure you are getting value for your money before singing up for new Comcast offers.
Type Of Display
There are various kinds of displays which characterize the TVs in the market today. You’ve got LCDs, LEDs, OLEDs and plasma TVs, each offering different features and qualities. Let’s take a look at each of them:
LCD
Liquid crystal display TVs are the most common and perhaps the cheapest TVs out there. They are energy efficient and have good color, but are limited in their viewing angles so they can’t function as a home theater.
LED
These are LCDs with LEDs as backlight. They use less power than LCDs and plasma TVs and have better contrast ratio, but are rather expensive, like many smart TVs.
OLED
Organic Light Emitting Diode TVs use colored LED lights which also save on power. They produce bright, high quality images which help with glaring problems. However, they are expensive and have the same viewing angle problems LCD TVs have.
Plasma
These TVs give high-quality cinematic pictures with wide viewing angles, excellent color quality and high contrast ratio. They aren’t that bright so glare can be a problem.
Backlighting
Backlight technology is one of the newest TV features to consider when shopping for a TV. This is a feature of LCD TVs in particular. So, if you are shopping for an LCD TV, consider whether or not you want it to have blacklighting. Some LCD TVs use lighting mounted directly behind the screen, while others lights mounted on the edge of the screen, which is called edge-lit panels. TV backlighting that is placed behind the screen usually offers better contrast, but will also cost more, just as thumb drives with more memory cost considerably more than those. Consider whether or not you want your new TV to have backlighting and if so, what type of backlighting you want.
Screen Size
Screen size, although perhaps not the most important qualification for buying a TV, is still a huge factor in picking the right TV to watch TV shows on. If you are looking to buy a TV for a living room or entertainment center, you should consider shopping for 50-60 inch TVs. However, if you are shopping for a TV for your kitchen or bedroom, a smaller size may be better. If that is the case, look for a TV screen size of roughly 24 to 32 inches. Remember to keep in mind your budget and the intended location of the TV to pick the best screen size for your needs.
Contrast Ratio
This has been mentioned quite a bit so let’s find out what it is. Contrast ratio refers to the difference in brightness between the darkest colors and lightest ones the TV can produce. The higher the contrast ration, the better the picture quality. You can confirm manufacturers claims by watching the TV in a dark place or choosing TVs with ‘true’ or ‘native’ contrast ratios. This may be especially important if you use a device like the Amazon Fire TV Stick.
Inputs
TVs come with a lot of input options that can work for a range of things. It is important to know what input options are necessary for what you need. For instance, you can check with WoW Cable info or your own TV service provider to see which input options and cables you need to connect the cable box in order to enjoy their services.
Aspect Ratio
This refers to the ratio of TVs width to its height. In order to make the most of your viewing experience, it is preferable to make sure that the aspect ratio of what you want to watch matches or is close to that of the TV. This is especially important for people who want a HDTV experience, particularly those Quake Live gamers who value image quality above all.
Refresh Rate
This has to do with the number of times images on your screen will be refreshed per second. It is measured in hertz so that’s what that 60Hz or 120Hz written on the box means. Higher rates reduce motion blurs and create a smoother flow of images which is great for action movies and gaming. Note that it is affected by the refresh rate of what you are watching and the cable you are using.
Screen Resolution
There are three major options for buying a television at the moment. In terms of screen resolution, you can choose between 720p, 1080p and 4K. The screen resolution measures the number of pixels within the total surface area of the screen. Thus, a 4K screen will offer a higher resolution which means more detailed colors and displays. The result is a much higher quality viewing experience that can feel more realistic, which is definitely important if you want to see every detail of some sporting event or Columbia House concert.
