A Simple Guide On To How To Buy A HDTV
The choices available to those who want to get the most enjoyment out of their TV sets are more numerous than ever. In the past buying a TV was a simple task that meant selecting the size and case style that best fit your home. These days with the advent of HDTV, it's a lot more complex. The availability of features and choices of technologies means that when you go shopping for the best HDTV for you, you will need all the help that you can get. What you need is a "How to buy a HDTV" guide to help you figure out what's hot and what's cool with these ultra-high tech "boob-toobs".
The first thing that you will need to do is figure out that kind of HDTV that is the best fit for your home, your viewing habits and you wallet. There are several kinds of HDTVs on the market. The first is the traditional plasma TV. These models provide a great quality picture at an economical price. LCD units and LED units provide a great picture but they also have a higher price. The good news is that the main features of a HDTV do not depend on the "light engine" that is used to create the image.
There are many great features that you can enjoy with the modern HDTV sets on the market. These are mostly dictated by the software built into to the TV. This software determines the social services that you can access, the music and video services that you can access and other key features of the TV. Some sets have the ability to let you update your personal news feed automatically while watching things or post updates about the shows that you like and don't like to your social networking wall with a simple click of the remote control.
There are also HDTV sets that are connected so that you can browse the web and even video chat using VOIP services. These services use the built in webcam and microphone in the TV set. You can also read email as well as send video emails (also called "facemail"). There are some sets which offer additional services available only to owners of those models of TV.
Some HDTVs have built in DVRs as well. These TVs allow you to not only pause and rewind live TV but also access streaming TV shows and movies from major services. The DVR hard drive can also be used to store music and pictures so that when your TV is not being used to watch your favorite programs it can be used as a huge constantly changing digital photo frame complete with its own soundtrack.
There are of course a few technological advances that have arisen that have nothing to do with the TVs on board software. These advances have taken the TV to a whole new level of advancement that has forever changed the way that we look at video entertainment. The first is the advent of "true Yellow" the second is the new 3D TV systems. The True Yellow technology is exciting since it allows TVs for the first time ever to create actually yellow light for the images. Previously this was incapable of being done with traditional TVs. To make yellow appear on the screen, green was created and the blue was filtered out. This made something that would pass but it was never able to create the real life color pallet that we enjoy in the world since real yellow is not only a primary color but also a foundation color for light. New TVs that can produce real yellow light can create millions more realistic colors that bring images to life in a way never before seen.
The invention of next generation 3D systems allows one to enjoy the excitement of realistic, image immersive 3D without the use of goofy looking red/blue cardboard glasses. These new systems use specially designed viewing glasses that are comfortable and attractive. The glasses are designed to work with the TV screen actively (not passively like red/blue film glasses did) to create a 3D experience like never before. There are some models that are being experimented with that even claim that they will be able to produce 3D with no glasses needed within a couple of years.
So before you go out and buy your next TV, make sure that you take the time to find out what kind of TV that you will need for your particular lifestyle. The best way to answer how to buy a HDTV is simply to do your research and take your time to find the TV that is best for you
