1 answer. if u have voltage fluctuation in ur area don't use plasma as the small pixles each haveseperate connection to voltage can destory ur TV otherwise u can use plasma as its reception is better than LCD but choose plasma wich have view angle about 179 degree available in market
2 answer. lcd has much less power consumption then plasma.even if plasma has better picture it will loose brightness faster then lcd. some plasma models are more susceptible to " burn in " still images. i like lcd better.p.s I'm an electronic tech.
3 answer.
As of January, 2009, the "Better Purchase" value wise depends on size. A 42", 50", or 55" Plasma will still cost less than the same sized LCD of comparable picture quality. Plasmas under 42" are rare, and over 50" are still expensive based on the units produced.
As far as power consumption, there's actually not a huge difference when comparing apples to apples. A bright, good quality 42" LCD will use roughly the same power as a 42" plasma, but the plasma will fluctuate power levels based on the picture content. If it's a black image, it will use less power than an LCD, if it's a white image, it will use more.
"Burn-In" is somewhat of an issue for Plasma TVs, typically though, burn-in is only an issue if you plan to leave the same image on the screen for extended periods of time such as using it for a computer monitor, or an information display. TV station logos, and most new game systems have been designed to be not harmful. In addition, most new Plasmas have a featre that discreetly shifts the image to prevent burn-in.
Most new plasmas are built to perform for many years. For exaple, a Plasma rated for 60,000 hours means that after 27 years of watching TV 6 hours a day, the TV will be about half as bright as when it was new. (not dead, just half as bright) It's the same basic technology used in "Tube" televisions - Phosphors are "painted" on the surface of the glass, and ignited using electricity. Only in a much more precise, and compact manner.
The "Better Purchase" question would have to be answered by aswering key questions such as:
There are many widely debated pros & cons for both Plasma & LCD. And many different reasons for purchasing one over the other. The best advice for someone looking to purchase a lage "Flat Panel" is to speak to a qualified, preferably trained professional, ideally at a custom Home Theater store (I have found that most big box store salespeople are barely more informed than the average consumer, and tend to offer opinion, or rumor as factual information - I was once told that I needed to purchase the Extended warranty because it covered "Recharging the Plasma" which needed to be done every six months).
There are many websites online to help one choose between an LCD or plasma television. A good website for LCD or plasma televisions is PC Mag. However, CNet also offers good opinions.
The difference between a plasma and widescreen lcd tv is that a plasma has less of a viewing range. They both have great video quality.
We prefer LCD. We have two and they are great. LCD is the only way to go Plasma TVs are better for viewing rooms where you can control the lighting. If glare is an issue then go for an LCD
A JVC plasma is a brand of television and a plasma television does not use liquid crystal displays (which is and LCD television). Plasma televisions are thinner and provide crisper images.
There are major differences between Sony's LCD and plasma TVs. A LCD TV presents in 4:3 ration, while a plasma presents in widescreen. Plasma TVs smallest size is 37 inches, while LCD are available in much smaller sizes. LCD TVs actually look better than a plasma screen when viewed center on, but plasma TVs can be view from multipe angle without picture distortion. LCD TVs, however, a better in rooms with a lot of light than plasma TVs. The decision will depend on your needs, preferences and budget.
It is going to depend upon what is important to you to decide which is better between a plasma TV and an LCD TV. Cost, availability and features will be the deciding factors.
No most people consider lcd tvs better than plasma tvs. Plasma tvs are harder to fix than lcd tvs. Lcd tvs also have a clearer picture than plasma tvs do.
No because the LCD or plasma technology is relatively new. It also depends on the maufacturer. Panasonics plasma tv has a 100,000 lifespan versus 60,000 of an LCD. Plasma and LCD are not the same type of tv either.
Viewing angles for a plasma will not have as many problems as viewing angles for LCD's, Screen Refresh Rates / Pixel response time for plasma screens are faster, and plasma tvs tend to be heavier.

LCD televisions will typically outlast there Plasma counterparts.
LCD are little lights for each and every pixel, while plasma has two pieces of glass with plasma between the two.
Plasma and LCD televisions are two different forms of HD television and have their benefits. Plasma televisions don't require backlighting while LCD televisions have better native resolutions.
