It is undeniable that with the emergence of smart phones, tablets and other electronic products, modern people's demand for televisions has been greatly reduced. But despite this, it is still necessary to buy a TV when decorating your home, even if it is just there to play some sounds for daily listening.
How to choose a TV? What do the various complex functional parameters and proper nouns mean? Today I will teach you how to correctly choose the TV that suits you. First of all, when buying a TV, you must follow the following "four don't buy" principles:
Don't buy small sizes
Regarding the size of the TV screen, this is a question that varies from person to person. Generally, it depends on the location of the TV and the sofa. determined by the distance. But even so, I still recommend that everyone try to buy a large-screen TV. The viewing effect is really enjoyable.
Both 65-inch and 75-inch sizes are acceptable for ordinary apartments. Of course, if the living room is really small, you have to consider it separately, because you may feel dizzy if you are too close. The living room has 50 square meters, and a 98-inch TV is not excessive. Of course, it is not cheap in terms of price. In general, it is not recommended to buy a small-sized TV, as it will not look grand enough and the viewing effect will be compromised.
Do not buy the startup ads that cannot be turned off.
The annoying startup ads on smart TVs really make countless people complain. Some brands even have startup ads that last for tens of seconds and do not let you close them. They force you to finish watching. Even if the TV is not connected to the Internet, ads will still pop up, which really annoys consumers.
Fortunately, since September 2020, with the official release of the "Smart TV Start-up Advertising Service Specifications", the situation has improved. Most brands' startup ads will not exceed 30 seconds, and ads can also be skipped. It is recommended that you ask about the startup ads before buying a TV. Do not choose a TV brand that does not allow you to turn off the startup ads.
Don’t buy fake 4K products
If you have requirements for picture quality, then when buying a TV, you must be careful not to buy fake 4K products. Many domestic TVs with more than 2,000 yuan on the market are still stuck in the "fake 4K high-definition" technology. Although the price is cost-effective, there is still a difference between the actual picture texture and true 4K products.
How to distinguish between true 4K and fake 4K? It mainly depends on the parameters, only RGB is true 4K. While the promotional leaflet is marked RGBW, the effective pixels of are only 6.15 million. Compared with a true 4K TV with 8.2 million effective pixels, the fake 4K picture will be whitened and inferior to true 4K in terms of decoding ability, clarity, and frame rate .
When purchasing, you can ask the shopping guide whether the TV screen panel is RGB or RGBW, as a judge.
Don’t buy
which is more gimmick than practical. In order to leverage the TV market, manufacturers have made many so-called selling points, such as TVs with eye protection functions, TVs with lifting cameras, and the famous laser TV Wait... If you ask me, these are more gimmicks than practicality, and whoever buys them will pay the IQ tax.
What is the anti-blue light eye protection function? In fact, slightly adjusts the color temperature of the TV to make the TV screen look warmer. It feels like it is treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
Some people say that the laser TV headquarter with tens of thousands of yuan is enough, right? Diffuse reflection and low brightness won’t hurt your eyes, right? Let me tell you, laser TV is really not worth the price. The TV you bought for 20,000 to 30,000 yuan is essentially a projector. You have to combine the environment to get the best viewing effect. You must know that the dim environment that is most suitable for using laser TV is the number one killer of eyesight. Moreover, when buying a laser TV, it will take at least half a day to adjust the installation alone to get it to the right angle. If you accidentally shift the curtain or motor during daily cleaning, you will know how strenuous it is to watch TV.
Although fewer and fewer people watch TV now, TV is still one of the necessary appliances at home.When buying a TV, we mainly look at the size, clarity, display material, screen refresh rate and whether there are ads on startup. There is no need to pay too much attention to other shopping guides who chatter about a lot of nouns about parameters. There is no need to deal with them. Although it is a gimmick, TVs are still mainly practical.
