There are so many options for TVs in the 21st century. We are often faced with three questions.
What features are we after?
What should they look like?
What are the best ones?
The problem immediately facing us in any good department store is that there are so many TVs that we have no idea which one to choose.
In his last official segment for the year, Mark Hadley returns to talk about the pros and cons of TVs in the 21st century and helps us to understand the spin surrounding them.
Buying a TV in the 21st century is deliberately confusing and salespeople tell us deliberately misleading statistics about such things as resolution and refresh rate. In fact no one manufacturer measures these statistics in the exact same way.
When purchasing a TV, it is important to know that the higher the resolution the better the refresh rate of the TV and that ideally the resolution should be 1080P, which in other words is a HD equipped TV.
Several factors need to also be taking into consideration when purchasing a TV.
Where will you be watching the TV?
When will you be watching the TV?
Who will you be watching the TV with?
It is these questions that are most important when purchasing a TV, not the TV itself.
In the modern era, it also important to purchase a TV that enables you to connect to the Internet or are Wi-Fi enabled. This basically means that you can increase the amount of programs you can view on your TV.
However, if you have a TV that has the ability to connect the TV to the Internet browser, you can access content you won’t see on the widgets provided by the major TV channels such as Nine and Seven.
The act of watching TV is a communal experience and it can be an opportunity to include other people in a conversation about faith and share the kind of life with them outside of the TV viewing experience.
