Compare lcd vs plasma flat panel tv

Due to the advancement of technology today, different kinds of flat TVs have emerged, each with its own uniqueness. For example, xenon and argon gases are used by plasma televisions to produce images while electrically reactive crystals are used by LCD TVs. But with their variations, here are some facts that will aid you to come up with a decision on which kind of TV to buy.

LCD and plasma television will last very long. Both their picture quality do not have much of a difference. The thing is, the newer versions of plasma TVs have decreased power consumption than that of the LCD TVs.

Samsung LCD TVs are not at risk for burn-ins. Newer models of plasma televisions are also correcting this defect. Samsung LCD TVs are thinner and lighter compared to the plasma televisions. LCD TVs are not very delicate that is why it is very easy to transport. But do sizes really matter? Come to think of it, you will just place your TV in one place. So think about it if size matter when making your choice.

Another thing to consider is about thin displayed picture. Plasma televisions have an advantage in terms of its viewing angle and contrast. Compared to the larger LCD TV models, plasma televisions are cheaper and thinner. But since LCD TV display images are crisper, you might consider using an LCD TV with no fear of having burn-ins.
With the many functions and advantages of LCD TVs, they can be a good choice. But if you are just after a TV set, then go for a plasma TV since these TVs have better picture quality, brightness, and color.

Lcd vs plasma which is better ?

Samsung LN32A550 32-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV

Flat Panel Televisions have forever changed the way we experience video at home. From the space you can save with their sleek designs to the
excellent picture quality they deliver, Flat Panel TVs offer great benefits compared to the traditional tube televisions.

Flat Panels can be mounted to your wall because of their thin and lightweight design. They can also give you a more consistent picture across
the screen from top to bottom because of their perfectly flat screens. You can get a much more accurate picture on a flat panel compare to a tube
television because they are digital displays, so they work by illuminating a grid of pixels. These pixels are made up of three sub pixels,
which are for the color red, blue, and green. Because of this, you can have millions, or even billions of possible colors that can be displayed.
The biggest drawback of buying a flat panel TV is the price associated with it, though as with almost all electronics the price is rapidly falling.

Currently Flat Panel TVs come with either an LCD or a Plasma screen. Choosing the right type of flat panel can make a significant
impact on your enjoyment of the TV. It is important to think about how you will be using the flat panel before making a purchasing decision.

Below you will find a few questions our product specialists recommend our customers to think about before purchasing a flat panel television.
How big of a screen size do I want? If you plan on getting a screen less than 40 inches, then LCD is your only flat panel option.
This is because Plasma TVs generally are not created in screen sizes under 40 inches.

The screen size you get should depend upon how large the room you plan to place it in is and how far you plan to sit away from it.
We recommend that you sit anywhere between 11/2 and 21/2 times the size of the screen. For example have a 48-inch (4 feet) TV; the optimal viewing distance would be between 6-10 feet away.
How bright is the room I plan on placing the flat panel in? If you plan on putting the flat panel in a bright room that doesn’t have blinds,
than you should consider getting an LCD flat panel as their screens are less reflective to light giving you less glare.

Will I be viewing things with static (still) images on the screen? Watching programs or playing video games with a static image on the screen (like a news ticker)
for long periods of time can leave you vulnerable to burn-in with Plasma televisions. This isn’t an issue for LCD TVs. Though, if you plan on mainly watching movies
with no static images, you should consider a Plasma TV to get more life-like colors than most LCD TVs can offer.
Do I care about the energy efficiency of the flat panel? LCD Televisions are usually much more energy efficient compare to similar Plasma TVs.

Do I want rich, warm colors displayed on the screen? Plasma TVs give you richer and warmer colors than most LCD TVs do. This makes the colors displayed on
the screen more life-like. Plasmas also give you much deeper black levels.
Both types of flat panels give you excellent picture quality, and give you a much better viewing experience than would a traditional tube television.
However, as we’ve discussed above, one type will usually fit a persons needs better than another based upon that persons TV watching/using habits.

Definitions:

Burn-In: When a monitor is left for long periods of time with one stand-alone image, the image can permeate.

Sony Bravia W-Series KDL-52W4100 52-Inch 1080p Vs Samsung LN52A860 Ultra-thin 52″ 1080p LCD HDTV

lcd_tester — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 15:14:32 +0000

Sony BRAVIA W-Series KDL-52W4100 52-Inch

Sony and Samsung have been known to launch similar televisions since long. In times of High Definition television, both have come up with winners in the 52 Inch bracket. This competition bears good tidings for the viewers.
They both start with the same resolution of 1920X1080. These are lots of pixels and ensure clarity per dots. Their image aspect ratio is also identical at 16:9. This guarantees a clear and big picture of things being shown on TV.
While Sony Bravia uses a separate technology called Motionflow to dish out fast pictures, Samsung does one better. At 4 ms, you cannot ask for more. This assures that there is no time lag between actions in fast scenes.
Where Sony scores over Samsung is with DmeX technology. Often crease lines emerge on LCDs when graphics change. This technology puts a stop to that.
Both have 4 HDMI inputs and almost similar weight. The Samsung version gives slightly better angle viewing than the Sony version.
Dynamic contrast ratio is the feature, which makes the difference clear between shades of a particular color. Though it is announced in Samsung at 50,000, the blue tint (Touch of Color) is not that marked. It is still to be defined in Sony. But with strong contrast enhancer, Sony seems to fare better.
It is the same with Sound absorption technology. Sony has dynamic adjustors to keep the sound well controlled. The bass and woofer are however not up to the mark. Speakers are ordinary. Yet the sound mechanism is better than Samsung version.
Both are theater group TVs and are Blu-rays enabled. In both the TVs however, projection of channels that are not HD-updated leave a lot to be desired.
Between the two similar televisions, Sony Bravia KDL 52W4100 seems to have a slight edge over Samsung LN52A860. Samsung TV has got its price recently discounted by $400.
