Why Buy A High Definition Television?
Are you looking into buying a new television but not quite sure whether the extra little splurge to make it a HDTV is really worth it
? Well, to put it simply, getting a HDTV is not only worth it, it's necessary when TV shopping.
Right now more than ever, buyers are strongly recommend to go high definition, and if by chance you cannot quite yet afford one, it is recommend that you make the current set you own hold you over until you have enough to buy a HDTV. You could go out and buy a TV that is not HD; I'm sure the store you buy it from would love you for helping them get some of that stock out of their stores. However, just keep in mind that if you go that route, you will most likely by pushed back into the TV shopping game again within the next few years to come.
Why is a HDTV so vital and what is all the hype about getting one? It's not really necessary and more of a luxury item for the loaded to indulge in, right? Wrong. Let's put this into better perspective. Maybe you weren't quite old enough yet or even around during the time when colored TV made its big debut.
But anyone today, can walk into any electronic store and see that black and white TVs have completely gone extinct. And nobody says "colored TV" anymore, we just say TV. How about the point and shoot camera? Have you tried lately to buy film for one of these bad-boys? It's getting nearly impossible to find and rather expensive since many companies have stopped production.
This same concept of "out with the old, in with the new" is hitting our televisions. A few years back, high definition was "TV of the future". Well, whether we like it or not, reality is showing us that the future is now! She's coming in and there is no stopping her.
Whereas before, you would walk into your electronics department and see the few HDTVs bunched together with all of their glamour and outrageous price tags to match, today, they have virtually taken over the floor. Good news for the average American; their prices are even becoming relatively affordable as well.
For those of us who are just now seeing the high definition light, and are getting ready to jump on the bandwagon, so to speak; what is HDTV? To put it in terms that even the electronic-illiterate can clearly understand, High Definition Television means better picture.
Actually, it means a much better picture. The 1948 technology of analog TV is slowly phasing out. The high definition technology is not only changing our television sets but as the nation moves to HD, it is beginning to change the whole filming industry as well; as TV producers will begin making their programs in high definition and movie producers making the switch as well.
The change isn't a possibility, really, it's inevitable, and probably within the next few years. Hence the reason why all the latest buzz about TV buying says, "high definition is a must".
So, what HDTV is right for you? "Wait...there is more than one kind?!?" you ask? Now, before you get yourself in a High-Tech, High-Def panic; we can make this part easy for you too. If you can figure out text-messaging, figuring out which television set you want should be a piece of cake.
It can be as simple as asking yourself, "what is most important to me and my family?" Is it price, picture, or size? If you want to go high definition, but price is the main factor, LCD HDTVs offer consumers an incredible picture in a wide range of sizes and prices to match.
If the best picture quality is your demand, it is said that Plasma HDTVs offer a better picture quality than that of the LCDs; however they will be slightly pricier. And if you're good old American motto of "Bigger is better" still tugs at your heart, Rear-Projection televisions will get you a nice big picture.
Whatever HDTV you end up choosing, years from now, you will feel technologically savvy, and look back and remember the "good old days", when we still referred to high definition television as "HDTV" rather than just simply "TV".
