It's time to buy a new TV but where do you start? These days, your viewing options are almost unlimited. Dozens of different sizes, different types of technology - the variety of televisions has exploded! When the dust settles and you've brushed yourself off, here are the top 7 reasons you should buy an LCD TV like the Sharp LC-70LE732U.
Size: Let's not even get into how ultra thin TVs are these days with all the miniature electronics and the flat screen designs. Let's talk about screen size - that's really what it's all about. You'll find LCD in sizes ranging from 9-inches to 108-inches and every size in between. You'll be able to see every inch of the football field.
Viewing angle: LCD TVs have a wider viewing angle. Unlike the picture on a plasma TV, which disappears if you're not looking at it straight on, you can perfect contrast and clarity on an LCD, with a viewing angle of more than 175 degrees.
Versatility: You can use an LCD TV for game playing and as a monitor for your computer. It's also versatile in the sense that you can mount it on the wall. Due to the increased viewing angle you have many more options for placement.
Energy efficiency: And energy savings of more than 40% over plasma TVs? Seriously?! With a savings like that, it practically pays for itself.
Picture quality: The viewing angle doesn't matter, the fact that you can use it to play games doesn't matter, the energy savings doesn't matter, either. Nothing matters if the picture stinks. And that's the best reason to buy an LCD TV - the picture. The screen is backlit which means it doesn't reflect light. Colors are crisper, cleaner - more like real life. Blacks are true black and whites are pure white, providing sharper contrast than plasma TVs.
HD Compatible: If you're still using one of those old-style TVs it's time to move into the 21st Century and LCD TVs are instantly HD TV compatible. No special boxes or receivers required. Just hook it up and start watching.
Pricing: Because of their technology they're the least expensive TV on the market and you can always find your favorite model on sale somewhere. Their low price combined with the 40% energy savings makes them the best buy for the money. And with lower prices, that means you can get a bigger screen.
When it comes to purchasing electronics these days everybody hesitates to buy. You never know what the manufacturers are getting ready to release. What's new and innovative today could be outdated tomorrow morning.
But LCD TVs are here to stay and the technology is so far advanced it will be years before anything else can surpass it. So go ahead, buy that TV. There's never been a better time.
