Each has benefits and disadvanTAGes and so each is more appropriate in specific
circumstances.

Historically, the LCD vs plasma Hdtv choice has been fAirly simple. If you wanted to
flat-screen that was about 40in or bigger, you had to choose, .otherwise plasmayou
should choose LCD. However, as LCD technology improves, LCD HDTVs are getting
bigger and most of the major manufacturers expect the number of LCDs they
produces to grow steadily over the next few years while the numberof plasmas will
decrease. However, if you're looking for a flatscreen TV, plasma still has a lot
to offer.

To understand the LCD vs plasma HDTV question, we need to look at the way the
two technologies work.

LCD

LCD HDTVs work by shining a light behind an LCD panel made up of a fixed number
of pixels. Each pixel is either red, blue or green and is switched on or off when a
volTAGe is applied to it. When voltage is applied to a pixel, it is switched off,
meaning that light can't shine through it.

The main advantage of LCD vs plasma HDTV is that LCD panels don't suffer from
what's called burn-in. This is a feature of plasma TVswhere they are used to Watch
TV stations with logos permanently displayed on-screen or where they are used for
video gaming with games that have static images such as a cockpit on flight
simulators. The image literally ' burns ' the screen meaning that even when the
image is not present you can still see a faint trace of it on screen. So for video
gamers in particular, LCD is a better choice than plasma.

Plasma

Plasma HDTVs have over a million chambers which house one or a combination of
gasses. When a voltage is applied to one of these chambers the gas ionizes and
ultra-violet light emits. This light strikes red, green or plue phophors coated on the
inside of the chamber and pixel emits this colorlight.

Plasma HDTVs tend to have better contrast than LCDs because, even when a pixel
on an LCD panel is switched off it doesn't block all the light coming through and
therefore the pixel isn't completely black. Plasma HDTVs also tend to have a wider
viewing angle than LCDs, as LCD HDTVs on the contrast and colour of the image can
change when the screen is viewed from different angles.
