Finding the Right 27-Inch LCD TV
Overview
A 27-inch LCD TV offers a superior picture quality compared to old CRT televisions, and they come in more stylish designs. In many homes, these TVs have become an essential part of the entertainment room's decor. Their versatility is a major advantage; these flat screens can be wall-mounted, placed under cabinets, hung from ceilings, or simply set on stands or furniture. They're large enough to enjoy from a comfortable distance, yet compact enough for smaller spaces.
Navigating the 27-Inch LCD TV Market
The market is competitive, with almost every major manufacturer offering at least one 27-inch model. Finding the perfect TV can be daunting, but following these steps will help streamline your search.
Consider the Room and Viewing Distance
Start by assessing your room's decor and how you'll position yourself relative to the TV. Thanks to their higher resolution, you can sit closer to a 27-inch LCD TV than a traditional set, with an optimal viewing distance of about 6 feet. This will help you plan your furniture layout.
Decide on HDTV vs. EDTV
Next, decide whether you need HDTV capabilities. While EDTV models are cheaper, they don’t support high-definition signals. Given the small price gap between HD-ready and ED-ready models, investing in an HD-ready TV is wiser. Experts agree there's little reason to opt for a non-HD model, as HD signals will become increasingly common in the coming years. Choosing an HD-ready TV ensures it remains compatible with future technology advancements.
Look for HDMI Inputs
Try to choose a model with an HDMI input. This port maintains an all-digital signal, preventing any degradation that can occur through other components like cable boxes. HDMI supports high-definition audio and video, making it compatible with some satellite receivers and DVD players.
Consider Picture-in-Picture (PiP) Functionality
Determine whether you want picture-in-picture capability, which allows you to view two video sources simultaneously. If so, know that single-tuner PiP enables viewing television in one window and another source (like a DVD) in another. A dual-tuner TV lets you watch two TV sources at the same time, a great feature for sports and news enthusiasts.
Check for Included Accessories
Ensure whether the TV comes with a stand or mounting hardware. While most models include a stand, wall-mounting kits can cost an additional $100 to $200. If bought separately, ensure the stand or hardware supports the TV’s size and weight adequately.
Review Return and Warranty Policies
Before purchasing online, review the manufacturer's return and warranty policies. Some manufacturers only provide warranty coverage when purchased through authorized dealers. Buying from unauthorized sellers may risk losing manufacturer warranty protection, although some retailers offer substitute warranties. Always verify warranty coverage when buying from discounters, as price differences often come down to these terms.
In conclusion, exploring these considerations ensures you select a 27-inch LCD TV that perfectly fits your needs and space. Making informed choices pays off in a television that serves you well for years to come.
