Finding the Best Flat Screen TV for You.

Considerations for getting the most out of your flat panel HDTV.

The days of tube TVs are long gone, thanks to flat screen TVs bringing you outstanding picture quality in a sleek design. In fact, any new TV you buy today is most likely a flat panel design. But with advancements in technology, there can be many questions about which flat screen TV is best for you.

First, consider the television size. Flat screens are available in a wide variety of sizes so you can find the perfect fit for your space. Keep in mind how far away you’ll sit from the TV and the screen resolution; for example, you may be able to sit closer to a 4K TV than a more traditional flat panel HDTV because of its screen resolution. You’ll also want to think about how many people will watch the TV at the same time. Unlike a curved TV, a flat screen can provide full viewing angles for multiple people in a room, making a flat TV a great choice for game watches or TV show binges.

Speakers are integrated into many flat screen televisions, but you may want to boost sound quality with a sound bar, which gives you more control and provides more immersive audio. It’s also great to have many movies and shows on-demand, so you may also want the ability to stream directly from your TV. Check out smart TVs with built-in streaming capabilities for a full entertainment experience.

Next, consider the movies and shows you want to watch. If you fall in love with a flat screen that isn’t a smart TV, you can simply add on a separate media streaming player to have all the content you want. The size of flat screen you choose and any home theater accessories you decide to add will help you make the next decision: where and how to install your TV in your home.

How to set up a flat screen TV in your home.

You can either use a TV mount to install your flat screen on the wall, or you can simply set it atop a TV stand or media center. Deciding where you place your TV will also impact the size. You may be able to buy a larger flat screen if you have the wall space (versus floor space) for it. No matter where you position your flat screen, make sure it’s high enough to keep your neck in a healthy, ergonomic position while watching. A mounted flat screen is great for that very reason – some hardware features tilting capabilities so the screen can be moved around for optimal viewing. Some flat screen TVs have built-in stands and legs that are adjustable so you can change the height as needed.
