I have 3 tvs in my house I often find myself watching tv in the basement where my Plasma is just because the LCD looks terrible in the dark why is this so
In: Technology
The big drawback of LCD and LED is that they have to use a backlight to provide an image and color, which means that grays and black usually look washed out because the light has to be on. Basically they have terrible contrast. They also tend to have worse color accuracy and lower coverage of the color gamut.
The upside is LED’s are really cheap, and things like local dimming have improved contrast a lot. LED has come a long way but OLED and miniLED is the future.
Drawback of plasma is price, image retention, poor brightness, amd plasma degradation.
