Pro & Cons of Both LCD and Plasma
Advantages Of LCD vs Plasma:
1. No “burn-in” or “screen burn” of static images.
2. Cooler running temperature.
3. No high altitude use issues.
4. Increased image brightness over Plasma.
5. Longer display life again this can vary according other environmental and use factors.
Disadvantages Of LCD vs Plasma:
1. Lower contrast ratio, not as good rendering deep blacks.
2. Not as good at tracking motion (fast moving objects may exhibit “ghost image” due to lag effect).
3. Although LCD televisions do not suffer from burn-in, it is possible that individual pixels on an LCD can suffer burn out, causing a dead spot and this appeared as a small, visible, black or white dots on the screen. As individual pixels cannot be repaired, the whole screen would need to be replaced if the individual pixel burnout becomes annoying.
4. LCD are generally more expensive than equivalent-sized Plasma televisions ( but the price differences are narrowing due to advances in manufacturing technology or supply surplus).
Advantages of Plasma vs LCD:
1. Larger screen size availability.
2. Better contrast ratio and ability to render deeper blacks.
3. Better color accuracy and saturation.
4. Better motion tracking (little or no motion lag in fast moving images).
The DISADVANTAGES of Plasma vs LCD include:
1. Plasma TVs are more susceptible to “burn in” or “screen burn” of static images.
2. Plasma TVs requires more power thus more heat produced than LCDs.
3. Does not perform as well at higher altitudes.
4. Shorter display life span than LCD. This can vary according to other environmental and use factors.
