Deciding Which LCD TV To Buy

August 7th, 2010 No comments

That LCD TVs provide a great viewing experience is no secret, but until lately few people were able to get one because they found them to be out of their price range. The good news is that these days it is not at all hard to find yourself a cheap LCD TV. The only hard part is deciding which of the many great and affordable LCD TVs on offer to spend your money on. With that in mind, here are some guidelines for helping you choose…

Look online for reviews of each brand - All of the big electrical brands have ventured into the LCD TV market, so you will be spoilt for choice. Sony, Samsung and Toshiba are some of the big players, but you will have to pay a premium to get yourself an LCD TV made by one of those companies. You can get some great TVs from the smaller manufacturers, but the quality of them can be a bit hit and miss. Therefore, it is advisable to do some research online before making a final decision.

Decide what screen size you need first - A bigger screen size does not necessarily give you a better viewing experience; it all depends on how far away from your TV you sit. As a rough guide, a 30 inch TV works best if you sit 4 feet from your screen, and a 50 inch TV works best if you sit 12 feet from your screen. A huge TV in a small room will not only look out of place, but you will also be sitting too close to it to get the full benefits.

Only get a high resolution one - If you are looking for a great quality picture, you will need a high resolution LCD TV. Look for one that is 1024×768 or 1366×768. These are typically available on most high-definition TVs, so you should not have any trouble finding a suitable one. If you have a choice of either a bigger screen or a better resolution, then you are better off opting for a better resolution.
