When the flat screen televisions burst on the scene a handful of years ago, everyone clamored to get a look at them. Now they are commonplace in most homes and a lot of people are hard pressed to remember life without one.
The first flat screens were all plasma and there was no such thing as HD in the first models. Then high definition was introduced and you could get a flat screen television with HD but it was substantially more. As more and more units sold and the technology was perfected, the prices started to come down to a point where more people could afford them.
LCD technology came after plasma and as more and more LCD sets were made, people decided they liked them more. LCD screens are supposed to last longer than plasma and so if you go into a store today, you will see that 90% of the sets on display are of the LCD variety.
Now there is a new kind of screen that has just been introduced by Samsung. LED screens are similar to LCD but they have backlighting that allows all the televisions to be only 1.2 inches thin. Additionally, these sets use 40% less energy so they are bound to catch on for their environment friendly aspects.
All you have to do is go into a store with an LED television and your jaw is likely to drop. For anyone worried about the weight of hanging a flat screen on the wall, these new thin LED sets are just what you were looking for. The color and bright screen is crystal clear which makes these new TV's very desirable. Right now the price is high at more than double what an LCD screen would cost but the price should begin to come down as more and more are made. Don't worry: more and more will be made, as demand for these will be big I predict. - 29967
