Thanks to advances in technology, you’ve got more television options than ever before. Unfortunately, that also means you have more to learn and more decisions to make. Don’t worry — you can figure it out, and we can help.
LCD: Hard-Working Flat Panel Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) create pictures by passing light through a thin layer of charged, polymer crystals, allowing each to reveal or block red, green or blue frequencies to make a color.
LCD is one of the brightest displays available — even brighter than plasma — and is relatively energy efficient. They resist glare, performing well in kitchens or multi-purpose rooms with bright lighting.
Some viewers critique LCD color as cooler or less natural, which may stem from slightly lower black-level performance.
Lighter-weight than plasma displays, LCDs are a great option if you are considering wall mounting.
