- 3D technology -- There was a lot of hype about 3D televisions, but each one has failed to be everything it was cracked up to be. Sure, it sounds fun at first, but the reality is that it is a wasted feature because it is rarely used. So, unless you absolutely have to have it, mark it off the list of requirements.
- Screen curvature -- Curved screens have promised to be the greatest in display quality, but, thus far, they have under-delivered. The display isn’t much different than a flat panel and, in some instances, the picture gets a bit distorted. It’s much safer to stick with the tried-and-true flat panel TVs.
- Voice control -- This is one more feature that promised the world -- and has yet to truly deliver. Pushing remote buttons is always going to be the first choice of most viewers, instead of trying to remember the right command or gesture to get the TV to respond.
