Compared to most kinds of television sets, plasma televisions have more vivid colours and clearer pictures. In fact, it has more colours than the human eye can possibly register in one go. Believe it or not, it can display up to 16 million different colours! That’s a lot! Besides its rich colour display, the TV also has a high resolution of up to 720p or 1080i. This gives you a crisp and solid picture quality that is incomparable.

People who have the money to spare often go for the wide screen plasma television sets with built in audio speakers. With the display quality and the surround sound, watching a show from it will feel like viewing a full-length movie from the comforts of your own home. Although LCD TVs are also quite big, plasmas have sizes that LCD TVs are not manufactured in. There are models that have screens as big as 50 inches!

But with all its glory, one downside to plasma televisions is the fact that it has what is called shelf-life. Because of the technology that it uses, plasma televisions can only last up to 30,000 hours. That is up to about nine years depending on the use. That’s a big consideration if you are going to shell out huge amount of money.
