Pondering On Lg Televisions And The Quality Built Into Them

By Matthew Kerridge

A very popular television maker in Europe and elsewhere which has lately been making a lot of noise in this country is LG. LG televisions are known in the consumer electronics industry as being some of the best high-definition, flat-panel TVs around, and there's a large variety of sizes and types (true high-def, high-def, LCD, plasma etc.)currently being offered by the manufacturer.

As a consumer electronics manufacturer, LG slots into the mid to upper levels of the market, and its TVs are among some of the most wanted in the business. For sure, there are several liquid crystal display (LCD) models of smaller size and older technology that can be had at a nice price, but its true specialty lays in the higher-technology offerings it brings to the upper range of the segment.

For a fact, LG offers a wide variety of high-definition flat-panel TVs that come in LCD and plasma screen technologies, and most of both varieties come in true high-definition, which is 1080p or 1080i, instead of lower-definition (though still extremely well-defined) 720, which is quickly becoming scare among higher-line TV makers. If one wants to go with 720, it's best to look elsewhere.

When compared to older-style CRT (cathode ray tube) or rear-projection (or even direct-projection) televisions, LCD and plasma screen TVs from LG come with a great many advantages, including weight and bulk. LCD and plasma TVs are also much easier to move around and position than CRT and projection TVs of the same size, and both are also much slimmer than CRT or other TV types.

In terms of bulk, a plasma TV with the right kind of backlighting technology can be extremely slim, though both televisions are far more compact than most any other kind of actual TV. An LCD TV will usually cost less than a plasma model, though personal preference in the kind of display technology desired usually comes into play at some point in the process.

In terms of price when it comes to an LG LCD television versus an LG plasma screen TV, the LCD will cost less at almost every screen size. Plasma generally is excellent at the really large sizes (42 inches and above) while LCD has the advantage in portability. LG TVs with LED backlighting along the edges are also extremely slim, and an LG model has a certain cachet that comes with it.

When looking for LG televisions, check online on the Internet, first of all. Many fine retailers now carry this manufacturer's models in all of the types (LCD, plasma etc.) and styles and sizes the maker is currently manufacturing. There has been limited availability on some of the more higher-line models but they can easily be placed on expedited order if so desired. - 29967
