HDTV: Picking The Right Set For Your Budget And Needs


HDTV sets are here to stay. With prices anywhere from a couple hundred dollars up into the many thousands, it is important to do the research and find an equitable review. Although the sales rep at your local best buy store is probably a good guy, you can frequently find some great HDTV deals on the web as well if you know what to go looking for. You need to know things like the type of HDTV you need, which resolution you desire, what inputs the TV has, the right viewing angle, and the best contrast ratio to get. If all that befuddles you don't let it. I'm here to help make sense of all of the tech lingo and find the right television for you.


Most likely you're a digital cable television or satellite subscriber. Either way, the very first thing you want to do is find out what kind of HD channel lineup your provider delivers. Most major digital cable service providers like Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Charter, and Cox have great hi-def channel packages with some great specials and rates for new purchasers. Dish Network and DirecTV have the satellite picture covered through equally strong HD tiers. Your digital TV provider should have virtually each HD channel now broadcast available, but ensure just in case before you get a new HDTV.


Once you have gotten a great hi-def channel package from you cable or satellite provider, you will have to choose whether you want to go with LCD, LED, plasma, or projection. Rear-projection based HDTV's are based on the oldest technology and often have lower resolutions, contrast ratios and viewing angles. I typically counsel staying away from rear-projection HDTV's, but if price is an enormous hurdle you can find some superb deals on rear-projection televisions and you can at least step in the high-def world. If your budget isn't as proscribed, most HDTV's produced today are LCD based. There's wide range of LCD HDTV's out there but for the best picture target television's that have a 1080p resolution and keep away from 720p screens. These numbers refer to the screen resolution and establish how clear your picture will be. 1080p is what you should go for and recommended for nearly everyone. You'll find some HDTV's that sport a 1080i resolution. While it's typically a better picture than 720p, the "i" in 1080i indicates that it is an "interlaced" resolution which isn't as smooth or clear as a 1080p "progressive-scan" picture. However , if you find a great offer on a 1080i HDTV, the price difference may make a case for the marginally lower picture quality. Plasma screen HDTV's were the 1st high-res TVs which actually made everyone see what a difference HD made. The 1st plasma televisions made, though, were phenomenally pricey costing thousands of dollars. Today, with competition from LCD HDTV's, the prices have come down considerably. Both plasma and LCD screens have advantages and disadvantages over one another and often it boils down to your own preference. LED HDTV's are the most recent change in the market. LED screens are LCD's that incorporate LED back-lighting to raise color range and contrast ratio while reducing energy consumption. Of course they cost more than standard LCD HDTV's and are targeted to those hunting for the most recent and greatest. For television connoisseurs, though, LED's offer the best picture and the narrowest profiles you can currently order.


After you've decided which HDTV format is right for you it's time to examine the little features and ensure the television you're considering purchasing has what you want. Ensure the HDTV's you're looking at has all of the connections you need. These include audio and video input/outputs and PC connections. Next, read the fine print for the model's biggest viewing angle. This is how far you can stand to the side of a television and still see a sharp picture. The bigger the viewing angle the better the HDTV and the more places in your living room you can enjoy the picture besides in front of it. Lastly, take a look at the HDTV's contrast ratio. This is a measure of how vibrant the color range is. Ideally you would like a high contrast ratio, but because each manufacturer may employ a different system for figuring out the ratio you often have to decide for yourself by looking at the picture. Avoid TVs that produce blacks that appear gray or whites that are lifeless and lack "pop".


Even with all of the confusing selling hype the bottom line is HDTV is fantastic. Prices have come down seriously over the last couple of years and curretnly you can get an enormous TV and simply stay under the $1500 mark. But if you aren't sure what to look for you can get burned with a low resolution picture with washed out colors. Hopefully my article has helped you know precisely what to look for when you head online or to the electronics store for a new TV. When you get the right HDTV it will change forever how you watch television.
