How to choose your TV screen

Television
TV is commonly referred to as Telly. It’s a telecommunication medium used for transmitting sound with images. Now a day LED TV’s, LCD TV’s and Plasma TV’s are fast moving in online shopping. Traditionally, screen options were limited to Plasma and LCD, but the advent of LED has changed the equation considerably.

LED TV’s:

Back lit LED
Edge Lit LED
Lighting
Lights from the back
Lights from the left and right edges
Picture quality
Best
Good
Thickness
Not as slim
Slimmer
Cost
Expensive
Cheaper

Narrow Option: LED
                             


Plasma TV’s:
Advantages:
Commonly, plasma televisions were widely welcomed as having the best picture quality because of their deep blacks. They still do, according to experts, but LEDs have over time connected the gap. They have excellent contrast and do not suffer from motion blur. They are often priced lower than comparable LED/LCD models. Plasma TVs also afford wider viewing angles.

Disadvantage:
Plasma TVs do not perform so well in brightly lit rooms. Plasma TVs are also heavier and are available in large sizes only (42" and above). They are not suitable for higher elevations. Even though Plasma TVs have bridged the gap in terms of electricity consumption, they still fare poorly compared to LED TVs.

Narrow Option: Plasma
                              

                                

LCD TV’s:
LCD TVs use CCFL technology. They are bulkier and don’t last as long as LED TVs. They also don’t provide as good a picture quality as LED TVs. However, LCD TVs are cheaper than LED TVs. So, if you are on a budget, LCD TVs could be a good option. However, since LEDs are getting cheaper too, most brands are phasing out LCD displays this season.
                                   

                           


Latest tech OLED:
OLED technology is being tipped as the next big thing in TVs. OLED TVs offer deeper blacks within a thinner and lighter panel than LCD displays. It is believed that the rise of OLED will go hand-in-hand with the rise of 4K.
However, only a few OLEDs are available in the market today, that too at exorbitant prices. It might be a while before OLED TVs become mainstream.

Conclusion:
LED TVs are the smart choice for most TV shoppers. They offer good picture quality for bright rooms, are thin and save electricity. You can’t really go wrong with an LED TV.
Plasmas have downsides but are unbeatable in picture quality and motion smoothness. If your room is dark, plasmas are probably the best option for you. They are also cheaper than LED/LCD TVs.
Buyers on a budget can consider buying an LCD TV, while they are still available. LCTD TVs provide a near-LED like picture quality for a much lesser price.
