How to Choose and Buy a LCD Television

There many LCD televisions on the market and sometimes it can be difficult to know which the right one for you is. Here are some hints and tips on what to look out for when choosing and buying a LCD television.

How to Choose a LCD Television – Choosing a Suitable Screen Size

Make sure you are choosing a suitable screen size. You need to make sure that it fits your living room. However, you also need to bear in mind that larger screens sometimes lose colour definition.

Smaller screens, however, can affect resolution. Unlike traditional TVs, LCD TVs only have one optimum resolution. On screens measuring below about 15 inches, the pixels are either blown up or the picture is redrawn to fit into the smaller area, so the quality of the display won’t be as good.

How to Choose a LCD Television – Check the Guarantee

Check the guarantee carefully, particularly to see if the backlight is guaranteed – if the backlight is guaranteed for one year you may want to consider extending it.

How to Choose a LCD Television – Where to Put Your LCD TV

LCD televisions are best viewed from a distance as watching them close-up can make the individual pixels noticeable. You can buy stands and wall-mountings to help you position your LCD television at a suitable distance – visit our Accessories section for more information.
