Review

Buying a new television can be a major investment, especially if you’re looking to upgrade the size and resolution of your current model. Depending on your budget, room size, and other preferences, a 40 1080p LCD television could be the perfect choice for you.

First, let’s talk size. So many people want to get the biggest screen that can fit in their homes but they don’t realize the decision is a mistake. Bigger can be better but only if you have the room size to support a mammoth screen.

At 40 inches, one of these televisions could fit nicely into most rooms. You want a viewing distance between your seating and your television of between 6 and 10 feet for maximum picture quality on a 40 1080p LCD television.

Second, let’s look at resolution. As you may already know, 1080p is the highest resolution available. Why does resolution matter? Higher resolution equals a clearer picture that’s going to really let all of the details come through.

It was even rumored that some actors were angry about the switch to these higher resolutions because hiding their facial imperfections would be harder than ever. Regardless, if you want the most amazing picture quality possible on a television and you have the right size room for the set get a 40 1080p LCD.

While we’re on the subject of the 40 1080p LCD, we have to talk about the benefits of the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). When these emerged on the market, many people thought they wouldn’t be the most successful.

Today, they are being hailed as the best screen technologies available and major manufacturers continue to improve the technology. The picture is cleaner, brighter, and crisper than with DLP sets. And they are more energy efficient and lightweight than plasma models. In larger sizes, the prices can be quite high but for a 40 1080p LCD you’ll still find some reasonable price tags.

If all that sounds great and you’re ready to buy, the question is which 40 1080p LCD television to you purchase. You’ll find models from Toshiba, Samsung, Sony, Mitsubishi, and others. Prices range from $900 to $1800 for the same size. Toshiba and Samsung tend to cost less than the others while Samsung also has some of the top features, including built-in USB ports for extra connectivity.

The Good

Excellent picture quality; lots of great manufacturers to choose from; most come with high-end features

The Bad

Price is often quite a bit higher than for lower resolutions; some lesser known manufacturers offer inferior televisions

The Bottom Line

Choosing a 40 1080p is a good decision if you’ve made sure the size is right for your room. Make sure you select a well-known brand and don’t have buyer’s remorse about spending extra for the 1080p resolution. The other features usually are well worth the price difference.

Review

Several leading television manufacturers are producing 40 1080p models of televisions now. This seems to be a popular size for consumers, possibly because it works nicely with the average viewing distance in living rooms and dens and because the size not too huge to hang on the wall or to sit on a suitable stand. But should you purchase a 40 1080p?

Part of the decision should be based on the size of the room in which the television will be placed. Having a set that is too large or too small is not going to provide you with the maximize enjoyment of the picture quality.

While showing off an enormous set in your home might seem like a good idea, if your room isn’t large enough then it just won’t work. If the distance between your seating and the screen is more than 10 feet, you’re going to need something larger. If the distance is four feet or less, a 40 1080p is going to be large for your room.

What about the 1080p? That number represents the screen’s resolution. Sets with a 1080p resolution are considered to be at the high-end of the market and usually cost several hundred dollars more than the same size set with a lower resolution.

If you’re on a budget, choosing one of the lower resolutions isn’t an awful decision. Most viewers aren’t going to notice the difference between 1080p and 1080i, although they may notice if choosing the even lower 720p. If you can afford to buy a 40 1080p, you should.

Not only is this higher resolution the way most televisions and entertainment devices will be going in the future but the sets often have some excellent features that are not available on the lower-end models.

If you do decide to purchase a 40 1080p, your next choice is going to be deciding on a brand and manufacturer. The Samsung models consistently seem to perform at the head of the pack, especially with their LCD models.

The Sony Bravia sets are also excellent in terms of picture quality and performance. You’re going to be fairly safe choosing any of the well-known brands, including Toshiba and Mitsubishi. Don’t try to save money by choosing a lesser known brand.

These models usually don’t have the same high level of features nor do they demonstrate the same picture quality. You’d be better off choosing a smaller screen or lower resolution in the long run.
