Plasma televisions has brought a futuristic slim looking screen to our
living rooms and made cathode ray tube televisons look positively bulky.

widescreen broadcasts.
1. More Expensive than
LCD and CRT TV's
2.
Very large screens combined with slim designs
Average plasma televisions screen size are now 42" , but 32'' sets
are becoming increasingly common. Most plasma televisions now integrate with video,
dvd and home cinema equipment.
You
can also release a significant amount of living space within your home
and create a centre-piece for your room (either on a stand or mounted
on a wall) but all this comes at a premium price.
Positives:
Modern
slim looks combined with large screens that deliver excellent picture
results for DVD discs.
Negatives:
Plasma televisions can display 'picture noise' (that looks like blurred little blocks
on the screen). Screens can also lack picture contrast.
Our
Verdict:
Prices
are coming down and picture quality is improving. If you want a large
screen picture, regularly watch DVD movies and require a superb centre-piece
for your living room then do consider plasma televisions.
