LCD TV - A Very Simple Buyers Guide

People tend to get caught up with the numbers game when shopping for electronic gadgets and appliances such as the television.

Charleston, AR (prHWY.com) November 22, 2012 - People tend to get caught up with the numbers game when shopping for electronic gadgets and appliances such as the television. Manufacturers use a lot of techno mumbo jumbo in presenting their products to the consumers. They ramp up the megapixels, the contrast ratio and any other product specification they can come up with because they know that the higher the numbers, the more people get interested. The funny thing, however, is that majority of shoppers probably do not even understand what those numbers mean and what they actually do for the product they are buying. The same techno mumbo jumbo usually gets lost in the translation and shoppers fall into the pit of analysis paralysis. Or worse, people end up spending more for a product that has been made to appear more advanced because it had more pixels on it.

Buying a flat screen television such as an LCD television should be one of the easiest thing to buy. This is especially true today as the LCD TV technology has advanced far enough that further enhancements in the features that count will not be as significant and perceivable as when the technology was still in its infancy.

There are only 4 things you should watch out for in buying a flat screen TV and they should not involve too much of the numbers.

PICTURE QUALITY. When buying an LCD TV, follow your eyes. Here is where most shoppers get too hung up on. They look at the specification sheet more than the LCD screen. But all you have to do to check on https://vimeo.com/54064472 how good the specs are is look at the screen! Much of the numbers being thrown around by the manufacturers and dealers definitely would play into this but it should all boil down to how they look on your eyes. Megapixel count, contrast ratio and motion response should not matter if the picture already looks great.

POWER CONSUMPTION. Join the green movement and get the most energy efficient LCD TV that fits your wallet. This can be simply assessed by looking at the wattage requirement of the television. Go get the one with the lowest wattage. Again, many new models today are incorporating the environment-friendly principles into their features so finding units that are energy efficient should no longer be hard.

WARRANTY. This is pretty self explanatory. You should get one with the longest possible warranty coverage. I will advise against paying for an extended warranty but this is entirely up to you.

PRICE. With the speed the LCD TV technology is developing, and with so many players competing in the fray, you are likely to find units being sold at very good prices out there. Bargains are a usual sight in appliance stores and this benefits shoppers. Go take advantage!

The above list is probably the simplest LCD TV buying checklist you will see out there. Do not get too caught up with the technical aspect that manufacturers and dealers are trying to use to get you into buying that brand new flat screen. Buying a TV is simple--- follow your eyes, your wallet and your common sense and enjoy your new TV!
