LCD TVs

If you are thinking about getting yourself a new TV set for your living room, you’ve probably thought about getting an LCD TV. LCD TVs are now very popular in pubs, hotels, restaurants and in business locations. Just about anywhere where you’d expect to see a TV, you’re likely to see an LCD TV. As technology has advanced and prices have come down, these modern TV sets have become more accessible.

As with any high-ticket item, you need to be well informed before making a purchasing decision for an LCD TV. The vast array of features, models and brands can be quite overwhelming at times. If you haven’t taken the time to educate yourself, you won’t really know what you are looking for.

Before buying an LCD TV, consider how you will be using it. I.E how much space do you have to work with, and will you need a stand for the TV?

Another thing to consider is the brightness of the TV. Without sufficient brightness the television will look too soft, even if the room is dark. Brightness rating of around 500 cd/m2 or higher is generally sufficient enough for any room.

Pixel count is also important for the quality of the picture. The majority of sets larger than 23 inches offer a resolution of at least 720 to 768 pixel resolution, which is about the lowest you should be looking for.
