With more choice than ever before, finding the best TV for your specific needs is certainly a daunting task for the uninitiated. From plasma TVs to 3DTVs, digital to flat screen, there are a number of elements that technology fans need to bear in mind when looking to purchase a new TV. But with more choices come more competition and what that generally means for cash conscious consumers is more savings, too. We take a look at some of the latest trends in TV technology to help you make an informed decision about what TV to buy this winter. Cheap televisions are plentiful these days and, like laptops and mobile phones, are jam-packed with the latest nifty accessories and tools that we could only dream of just a few years ago.What is an LCD TV?In short, LCD TVs offer better resolution than plasma TVs. They were once very expensive but many makes and models can now be classed as relatively cheap televisions, making them an affordable alternative for the sizes they come in.
