The resolution on an HDTV is much higher quality than the resolution on a standard-definition TV. On average, HDTVs have 1080p resolution; that is 1920 pixels by 1080 pixels. Having this many pixels consistently provides a sharp, clear image on the screen.
The high contrast in HDTVs in addition to the high resolution creates the best possible image. Contrast refers to the darkness of deeper tones as compared to how light the lighter tones are. For example, the contrast in HDTV will produce a dark, rich black and a radiant white. This makes the picture pop out more on the screen.
All HDTVs will allow you to connect your Internet to the television. This is ideal for programs like HULU or Netflix that will allow you to watch your favorite programs and movies on your television. In addition to connecting to your Internet, the HDTV will provide faster Internet connection than a laptop or computer would.
With the growing trend of 3D movies, most HDTV manufacturers are now equipping their television sets with 3D capabilities. This means no more paying $13 at the movie theater to watch your favorite 3D action flick. Now you can watch it from the comfort of your own home ... and with better glasses.
This allows images and sound to be carried across the room with fewer cords, often even wirelessly. This means you can hook up surround sound in your home theater without the hassle of a million different cables you don't know the names of.
