More LCD vs. Plasma

We previously wrote a guide comparing the two prevalent technologies in slimline displays: LCD and plasma. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. I happened to chance upon more arguments for either side on digitaladvisor. This time, it’s more of what your requirements are, and how you plan to use your flat screen TV.

Some points of note:

  • LCD has a longer life span.
  • Home theatre buffs would appreciate plasma’s higher contrast.
  • Energy conservation buffs would prefer LCD’s more efficient use of electricity.
  • D-I-Y buffs can mount LCD screens themselves, while plasma screens need to be mounted professionally (they’re heavier and more delicate).
  • If you plan to watch in large groups, plasmas are better, because of the wider viewing angle.
