Tips for Choosing a Flat Screen TV: Part 2
Introduction
In recent years, nearly all flat screen TVs have been equipped to handle digital inputs, which is excellent news for consumers. However, it's crucial to understand the two main digital standards available.
Understanding Resolutions
HD-Ready
HD-Ready televisions offer a resolution of 1366 x 768, providing a 10:6 aspect ratio similar to that of a movie theater. These TVs are often available at discounted prices.
1080p and 1080i
For higher resolution, options like 1080p and 1080i provide 1920 x 1080 resolutions. The 'p' stands for progressive scanning, whereas 'i' refers to interlaced scanning, which delivers the best quality. Ensure your TV is truly digital ready by checking whether a digital TV tuner is necessary.
Reasons to Consider Resolution
1. Affordability: HD-Ready TVs are available for less than a thousand dollars due to being a transitional option to higher resolutions.
2. Current Content: For the next few years, most digital content won't exceed HD-Ready resolution unless you have satellite TV.
3. Future Standards: Although digital broadcasting will become mandatory, the resolution standard isn't set, so buying an HD-Ready TV might make sense.
For those heavily invested in HD-DVD and Blu-Ray, opting for a 1080 resolution could be beneficial now. Keep in mind that as more content and compatible players become available, 1080 TVs might become as affordable as current HD-Ready models.
Shopping Tips
It's wise to shop around when purchasing a flat screen TV. The market is rapidly changing, with increasing LCD production leading to reduced prices. Many manufacturers are in a price war, offering older models at significant discounts. Particularly when shopping online, you can often find great deals on models being phased out.
By considering these factors, you can make an informed decision and potentially save money on your next flat screen TV purchase.
