In a rapidly changing world, television technology is advancing alongside other modern-day lifestyle components. Boxy and bulky TVs of old times have been replaced by TVs equipped with LCD, LED. So if you want to buy a perfect TV for your needs these days then you should look at several features.

1. Screen Size

The first thing to look for when buying a TV is the proper screen size of the TV. Currently, there are different sizes of TVs available in the market although the most popular TV screen sizes are within 32-65 inches. Choose a TV according to your budget and TV viewing distance. The most common TV screen size is 32-inch which can be viewed from 3-5 feet perfectly. For a bigger screen, a larger distance is required so keep this in mind.

2. Screen Technology

TV Screen technology in our time has also been improved considerably. At the beginning of modernisation, Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) TVs started to be replaced with LCD, but one of the problems with LCDs is that the viewing angle is not too wide, so when you watch TV from the side, you can no longer see the picture in the original color. This is why the LCD is slowly being replaced by the LED technology which is more improved from the previous ones. OLED is another newer technology that is also better.

3. Smart Features

Many smart features are present in the current TVs such as Wi-Fi facility, USB cable, internet browsing, some common software can also be run through the TV, so before buying a TV, check if it has these smart features.

4. 2D or 3D

TV also has 2D and 3D technology now. Although 3D is a very modern technology, but now almost all TV channels broadcast 2D video on TV. Also, you can find almost all videos on YouTube and the Internet in 2D, except for some special videos and movies. It will take a while to become acceptable so you can buy a 3D TV.

5. Flat or Curved 

We have always been accustomed to watching flat TVs but now some TV screens are shaped with a slight curve which concentrates the pixels of the picture so that it becomes more colorful and suitable to attract your maximum attention. The problem is that the TVs with curved displays are much expensive.

6. Resolution of TV

In the present era, almost all the videos are in HD quality, so if the resolution of the TV is less than 1080 pixels, then it is better not to buy that TV. If not, you will have to watch non-HD contents later.

7. Budget

When buying a TV budget is another and perhaps the most important factor that you need to consider. If you do not need any special features then buying that TV would leave some money in your pocket. So, select the features you need and compare TV prices in Bangladesh from price comparison online websites such as bdstall.com and finally, select your desired TV. bdstall.com: https://www.bdstall.com/tv/
