From curved to flat-screen televisions, Plasma TVs to LEDs, LCDs, OLEDs and more, the choices are endless. While this diverse TV market means there is sure to be one model out there that is just right for you, it does make the choosing more complicated.

It’s not easy but these few tips will help you narrow down that overwhelmingly long list.


First, A Look At The Size

When it comes to televisions, size does matter and it’s not just the size of the screen or the space available for placing the television. You also have to consider the viewing distance. It is recommended that you sit at least four to five feet away to view a 17-27” TV comfortably. However, you would need to sit at least 10 feet away to view a 55” screen. Resist the urge to buy a larger screen if you do not have the space to sit at the minimum required distance. Not only will the picture quality suffer but you will also strain your eyes.


Curved or Flat TV?

Curved screens have more advanced technology. The colours are truer and the depth-enhancing technology provides a more immersive viewing experience, which is something that any television buff is sure to appreciate. However, the limitation with curved TV screens is that they cannot be mounted on the wall. You will have to place the television on a flat table-top or a TV cabinet. This could end up occupying a fair amount of space so make sure you have that much space to spare.

LED or OLED technology?

Both are good but OLED takes the technological advancement one step further. OLED is the latest technology being used in televisions. It produces smoother images and reduced motion blur so your viewing experience is outstanding.
