The importance of television for modern people is beyond doubt. This is why many people spend dozens of hours comparing different models of modern TVs with each other. In order to reduce your search time, you should use the tips from this article.

Choosing a TV presents a lot of difficulties for an unprepared buyer. Since the TV is an extremely important item for the home, most buyers allocate a large budget to it. That is why they pay the most attention to all the characteristics of the TV. Which of them can be called the most important and why? What to look for when purchasing? Answers to these and other questions can be found below in the text.

What you need to know when buying a TV

Since a TV is bought for many years, this purchase needs to be carefully considered. To do this, it is recommended to consult with family, friends and relatives. Only in this case can you be sure that this purchase will not disappoint either the next day or a year later.

First you should study promotional offers. If you can take it and save, then why pay more? The best time to buy a TV is Black Friday, which takes place in dozens of countries around the world, including Russia.On this day, stores organize large-scale sales, during which you can purchase the best products at a discount. This also applies to televisions. Of course, not everyone is ready to wait a whole year, but it is on sales days that you can buy expensive goods at an adequate price, so if you have the opportunity to wait until Black Friday, then you should take advantage of this.

First you need to decide on the model. This is quite difficult to do, because many of them have minimal differences, so before choosing a screen you need to decide on your preferred characteristics. This will be discussed in the next section.

After choosing a model, you need to choose a place of purchase. Today, many buyers increasingly prefer online stores. It's all about the notorious price. Since online stores do not need space, they do not need to pay a lot of money for renting a store. This affects the final price of goods. In addition, modern online stores are ready to provide the same guarantee as regular stores. This is especially important in the case of expensive equipment.

The fact that you can find many reviews on the Internet about online stores deserves special attention. This is an excellent source of information that allows you to get maximum information not only about the activities of a particular online store, but also about an individual product in particular.

If the choice fell on a regular store, then the buyer will be able to compare all the products in person. This is a great way to make sure you make the right choice.

What parameters should you use to choose a TV?

After the buyer has decided on the place of purchase of the store, he only has to choose a model.This must be done taking into account several parameters. We are talking not only about technical characteristics, because a TV is also a decorative item. It should look quite stylish. If it does not fit into the interior of a room or other premises, then any troubles are possible.

Its color and shape play a big role. Since many companies do not pay due attention to the appearance of the TV, the models do not have an elegant appearance or stylish design. This is why many buyers are willing to overpay and buy models from premium brands or series. For example, the Japanese company Sony produces TVs in the Bravia series. They are distinguished not only by first-class technical characteristics, but also by excellent design. These TVs will fit perfectly into any interior. It is for this reason that they are in great demand and boast excellent reviews. Other manufacturers also have models, one of the advantages of which is their excellent appearance, so, among other parameters, you must definitely pay attention to the design.

Another important parameter is this is the screen diagonal. Typically, the larger the diagonal, the higher the cost. This rule applies almost always. TVs with a larger diagonal (with a larger display) should be installed for the hall, bedroom, and living room. If we are talking about a hallway or kitchen, then preference should be given to more compact models. In this case, they will not spoil the interior and will be an excellent addition to the appearance of the room.

Which diagonal is in greatest demand today? It's safe to say that the most popular models boast a diagonal of 32 inches.The thing is that they are not too expensive, but their characteristics are quite sufficient to satisfy most of the needs of modern buyers. 32 inches is the “golden mean”, so if we are talking about buying any budget model, you should pay close attention to TVs with this diagonal.

If you are ready to purchase a device that cannot be classified as budget, then it is recommended to pay attention to models with a diagonal of 50 inches. They will be an excellent choice for those who would like to be able to watch modern TV shows in high definition and on a truly large screen; 50 inches is enough for any purpose.

When purchasing a TV for the kitchen, it is best to focus on models with a diagonal of 24 inches. This will be quite enough to follow the progress of a football match or watch a TV series while having breakfast or dinner.

10 Key Features When Buying a TV

• The key characteristic of a TV is resolution. The quality of the image depends on it.
• Brightness is also very important when it comes to viewing, because it determines how comfortable it will be to watch TV at different light levels. This is especially important when it comes to watching a program during the daytime, because in this case the brightness must be quite high, otherwise it will be almost impossible to see the image on the screen.
• The viewing angle affects how comfortable it is to use the TV. The viewing angle is too small, and it will only be possible to watch TV comfortably if the viewer sits directly in front of the screen.
• Broken pixels.This is also a kind of characteristic, because if there are too many dead pixels on the screen, then it will be difficult to use the display.
• Response time. This characteristic is needed in order to determine how suitable a particular screen is for viewing dynamic films and programs. With a low response time, such a TV will slow down when watching some action films in high definition.
• The contrast of the image should be at the level. Otherwise, the “picture” will be too faded. This will become a serious problem when watching TV during the daytime.
• Screen diagonal. You can learn about this characteristic from the previous section. It can be added that the diagonal (screen size) should be selected based on the distance from the TV to the viewer. You should not buy models with too large a diagonal if TV will be watched from a sofa located just half a meter from the screen.
• Support for three-dimensional images allows you to watch movies and TV series in 3D. This is especially important for children who love 3D cartoons, so 3D support is very important for many TV viewers.
• The type of matrix determines how suitable the screen will be for watching movies and playing games. Some matrices cannot boast of high quality, so you need to check this information with the seller. It is not recommended to buy TVs with a TN matrix, because this technology is already very outdated.
• Having Wi-Fi is very important. Otherwise, using TV it will be impossible to access the Internet and watch videos and films on the Internet. This is a serious drawback that is difficult to somehow compensate for.
