Which is better : LCD or Plasma TV for India?

Question

I have got a lot of confusion in deciding from both. Some say LCD is the best. Some who have technical experience, they say the signals which we receive on cable, for that reason Plasma is more effective. I need suggestions from experienced people. SECONDLY which COMPANY IS GOOD other than SONY, because Sony is quite costly

Answer 1

go with SONY. its better than others. thouh its little costlier, its value for money. has better display, better output, better durability and overall the BEST. so go with SONY.



if you want power consuming tv then go with lcd tv's. if you want more better display than lcd and can spare more budget then go with plasma tv's.

This question has been asked many times, so I've formulated my standard answer. Here it is: Picture quality of plasma is brighter, better color, better blacks than LCD. (There is something about looking directly at glowing phosphors!) Sharpness is the same for equivalent pixel counts. Some newer LCDs have 1080 x 1920 resolution, most plasmas still in the 720 x 1280 range. Plasma is heavier and uses more power than flat panel LCD. There are reports that plasmas are not as reliable or they don't last as long, but that is no longer true with the latest models. Plasma phosphors dim slowly over time (but not as fast as CRT phosphors); but direct view LCDs use flourescent lamps which also dim and eventually burn out (some are replaceable). Projection LCD sets have bulbs of limited life, but are replaceable and the lifetime is a few thousand hours of viewing. Plasmas are subject to burn-in. A stationary image left on the screen for a long time could produce a permanent ghost image. The most risk is when viewing a lot of 4:3 ratio pictures (non-HD), which are displayed with vertical dark areas on the left and right to fill in the wide screen. There are ways to minimize this, however. many sets have a "stretch" mode which widens the picture to fill the whole screen. This could also be a problem with extended playing of video games if there is a background image that remains stationary. Plasmas come in largers sizes, although large flat panel LCDs are coming out, but they are expensive. LCD projectors can be 70". LCD contrast and brightness can be reduced when viewing from off-center (both flat and projector, but sets will vary). If sony is available, I would go with that for LCD; for plasma, I would select a Panasonic.

LCD is a short term for Lequid Cristal Display which has different technology than Plasma. The advatage of Plasma over LCD is its screen brightness only. But LCD is better for its durability. Therefor Some TV manufacturing companies are stopping making plasma and turning into LCD screens. SAMSUNG and LG are good for there quality and price.
