Five tips on how to buy a TV. First, do not believe ... - Gazeta.pl

“I look around for some time for a new television – of course, has to be smart, etc.” – Wrote to me Darius.

What is smart TV? In short, a TV connected to the Internet, which includes interfacing with other devices in the home, usually the same brand, eg cell. For example, the interesting feature is the “drag” the content from your tablet or smartphone to your TV screen. Simply connect the device and make a gesture drag photos to it began to show up on the TV screen.

“I care about a few features that look good in the description of marketers, but do not know how in practice (such as the ability streamowania TV images on the tablet) “- writes the reader.

You can only play with the remote control. But only a little!

I complain that our stores are not prepared to sell such equipment. Here is his letter:

“The electronics stores can forget about testing anything. Indeed, there are even special position with couches for sitting in front of the TV, but you can only stare at the demo. Because usually there is no remote control … . And if there is (eg from Samsung) is the Plexiglas casing that gives you access to a few keystrokes.

In the post Sony was even a touch screen to switch between Blu-Ray DEMO and DEMO Playstation. Finally wyhaczy?em that every TV on display is the bag with the instructions, 3D glasses and just pilots. But so what, if ANY of smart TV was not connected to the internet … “.

In a word – the stores are completely unprepared for the sale of such advanced products. All times show how it looks the same picture and whether or not snowing quite quickly pass. Television is now just a computer with internet access. What matters is what is the functions that interface. And that just are not able to test it.

One letter in the series, the big difference in equipment

What’s more, manufacturers are flooding the market a few / dozen times with the same models differ in the time series ONE the letter and nothing else. And this one Suffix may be cut in half firmwarze you interesting features. Forget that the seller of such a thing will inform you. If you do not obryjesz earlier on the website of Panasonic or Sony, you pay dues (because it turns out that for 300-400 z? could have a recording function to an external hard drive, etc.)

– Smart TV – dumb stores – concludes Mr. Darius.

Today five tips on how to buy a TV

first Do not trust the seller. You’ll be recommending this company receiver model from which gets the prize (yes, there are loyalty programs for retailers in stores, so you push it, for what they can get some gadget or money)

Not long ago I spoke with friends, whose job is testing the TV. He stood there for 10 minutes each in a large supermarket and listened as the vendor touts one of the receivers describing qualities that this model did not have. He went to him and asked: How can you lie like that?

Well, he could.

2 Do not believe the show you a demo. Bring your own plate, let you be let go on TV, which you are interested. Besides, remember – TVs in stores are often distorted (depending on which brand is currently promoting the seller).

3 Do not buy new. Models introduced this year on the market have poor relationship quality – price. Buy last year’s model, and better yet one that descends from the market and was the highest (best) for a given manufacturer. Do not buy into showrooms. In online stores you can find the same model cheaper. And if these are the top models of the brand, the difference can reach thousands of do llars.

4 This is a good time to plasma. This technology out of the market, so it has good prices. I know, I know – Plasmas are energy intensive (but pull much less power than the former). But the black still rules. Yes, I am a fan of plasmas, yes, I have one at home. It heats the stove, but it gives a great picture.

And if you have a lot of money, buy the Sony 4K, which is in super high resolution. The effect is to die for. The colors, sharpness, dynamic range. The difference between HD and 4k is the same as between a woman and a woman without make-up with make-up by professional make-up artist.

Of course, do not do it now, but in the next year or even better, for two years. While at the moment the TV costs about 20 thousand. z?, I can bet that in the next year in online stores can be bought about 30 percent. cheaper. And then less than 10 thousand.

Anyway, today at Amazon.com you can buy a 50-inch 4K Seiki Chinese company for  230; $ 1,399. Television, on the Web site Gizmodo, he wrote: “What the hell is a TV that is so beautiful, it can cost you so little? ‘. The answer is – because this model is just fantastic panel, and three HDMI sockets. And nothing more.

5 Do not buy a TV for the goodies that you will not use.

A few years ago a large part of young Poles watching movies 17 -inch computer monitor. Now his career is doing a pirate streaming or watching movies and TV series in real time without downloading them to your computer. Such materials are generally of poor quality.

watch them for 42 -, 50 – or 55-inch screen has about as much sense as fishing in the manhole.

Buying a new TV ? Watch channels in HD. Otherwise, you throw your money away.

For the same reason I do not buy movies on DVD – only on Blu-ray. The difference is staggering, and one plate this year, yes, it is expensive, but more or less corresponds to the co st of a trip to the cinema for two people over the weekend. But that’s another story.
