Learn The Difference Between Plasma And LCD TV.
2 types of flat screen TVs populate the HD arena currently: LCD TVs and plasmas. Even though these TVs are flat, attractive and capable of spectacular pictures, most potential owners still cannot decide on which type of flat screen TV they should purchase. This article will try to help you in making the correct decision by considering how you're going to use your HDTV.

Plasma VS LCD Television.
If you plan to play a lot of console games on your new flat screen HDTV, you should choose an LCD TV over a plasma. Even though not as serious a problem as it was before, plasmas are still relatively prone to screenburn and image retention that could be easily brought upon by a long gaming session.
Also, LCD TVs tend to be brighter and boast a higher resolution than plasmas within the same price bracket, which make the games look more vivid and detailed, resulting in an immersive gaming experience.
You should also opt for an LCD if you are going to use a home theater computer (HTPC) with your flat screen HDTV. The higher resolution of LCD TVs will make sure that the text on the screen are well-formed; and the increased brightness level (compared to plasmas) is essential to mimic a computer monitor. Also, if you sit closer to your flat screen HDTV you may notice pixel noise on plasmas due to the fashion the pictures are rendered through pulse width modulation (PWM).
On the other hand, if you watch fast paced sport programs, a plasma TV should be a strong contender in your shortlist. While much improved compared to previous batches, LCD TVs continue to suffer from motion blurring as a result of the sample-and-hold phenomenon which is inherent in the LCD TV technology. More advanced LCD TVs powered with frame interpolation technology (100Hz and above) are better in this respect, but because the technology is still in its infancy, it is generally limited to smaller screens (less than 40-inch), and side effects like shimmering and frame breaking are intermittently noticed.
Determine your needs - Plasma Or LCD.
By evaluating how you will use your new HDTV, and what you will use it for, you can get the best HDTV for your needs.
