There are many types of high definition tv’s on the market today. It can be difficult to find the perfect fit for you. There are three types of HDTV available. OLED, Plasma and LCD. All of them have their advantages and disadvantages. OLED is very expensive at the moment and is not really worth the extra cost. So the two you should be looking at are Plasma and LCD. Plasma screens are great at recreating a cinematic experience at home as they generally come in larger sizes. They are more cost effective in larger sizes too. Unfortunately there are many downsides to Plasma. They dont work very well in well lit rooms. They are by far the heaviest tv’s making it very difficult for one person to move. They also suffer from images burn which leaves a ghost image on the screen. Also they tend to lose there color over time. LCD on the other hand are good for well lit rooms. They are much lighter than Plasma as they dont have glass fronts. They normally offer better resolution.
