Plasma, LCD and LED TVs provide an excellent HD picture, offer stunning arrays of colors, and of course, Samsung’s exclusive technologies which allow you to get the most out of either panel.
LCD traditionally uses a CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) backlighting system that runs across the rear internal portion of the unit to illuminate the LCD panel from behind.
Samsung’s LED Televisions use an LCD panel that is back-lit or edge-lit by LEDs. LED TVs usually enjoy the highest energy efficiency while producing very high contrast ratios and smooth motion from a slim design.
Plasma Televisions operate using a combination of gas and glass to illuminate the individual pixels, or light sections, within the screen. Plasma panels allow for an expanded viewing angle over LCD, and has a response time as fast as .001ms. All of the Samsung Plasma units have a feature called Screen Burn Protection, which helps reduce the effects of static images and provide a quality image for the life of the panel.
Both Conventional LCD and LED Televisions offer a great picture without image-retention and smooth image motion using the Auto Motion Plus processing, with the LED TVs offering better energy efficiency and a slimmer design. Plasma Televisions offer faster response times, as well as appeals to customers replacing a tube television with a glass screen they are familiar and comfortable with. And, due to advances in technology, both plasma and LCD panels can work well even in the brightest rooms.
