Why LCD and not plasma? Because the manufacturers seem to have a clear preference for that technology, despite the undeniable quality advantages of plasma. LCD is less expensive to produce, less demanding technically, and perhaps most importantly, it is of greater appeal to the lower end of the market, where most of the buyers are. Unfortunately, LCD is also the technology that involves the highest risk for the purchaser: LCD specifications are often unrealistic, and quality can vary greatly from one model to another. There's a very real danger of paying more than $1,000 and getting a bad TV set.
| Translation - Italian Per integrare il nostro articolo sulle tecnologie che si nascondono dietro i televisori a schermo piatto, abbiamo preparato una mini-guida per l'acquisto di set televisivi LCD. Perché LCD e non Plasma? Semplicemente perché i costruttori sembrano avere chiare preferenze per quella tecnologia nonostante gli innegabili vantaggi della qualità del plasma. Gli LCD sono meno costosi da produrre, hanno richieste tecniche inferiori e, fattore forse più importante, godono di una grande attrattiva nella fascia bassa del mercato, dove si concentra la maggior parte dei potenziali acquirenti. Sfortunatamente quella LCD è anche la tecnologia che comporta i rischi maggiori per il compratore: le specifiche spesso non sono realistiche e la qualità varia profondamente da un modello all'altro. Il pericolo di pagare più di 1000 euro per un televisore scadente non è poi così remoto. | More Less | | Years of translation experience: 4.
