Should I Buy an Ultra HD TV?

There are many TVs on the market, and each one promises something special – the best TV remote, the brightest picture, the greatest sound, the lowest price, and so on. Ultra HD TVs are some of the latest TVs to hit the market. So, is this new technology worth the higher price? Or will you be satisfied with the TV you own now? Here are some things to keep in mind:

• Ultra HD TVs are high-definition TVs with a higher resolution. They have more than 8 million pixels, which provides a very detailed display. These TVs are often called 4K TVs because they have a resolution of 3840, which is quite close to 4000.
• More pixels isn’t always better. Display quality depends on more than just pixels. A display still needs the highest quality of colors, blacks, and brightness. So, just because a TV is 4K or Ultra HD doesn’t mean it is necessarily the best.
• Consumer Reports discovered that these TVs do deliver fine details – but when viewers stepped back to a normal viewing distance, the differences weren’t really noticeable. So, you could pay more for a TV that no one really notices.
• Keep in mind that 4K technology still has a ways to go, as far as what is available to watch. So, if you buy one right now, you may not have access to 4K broadcasts for quite a while. The quantity is increasing, but your viewing could still be limited.

So, should you buy an Ultra HD TV? That depends on what you want out of a TV, how much you want to spend, and if you are willing to wait for more available broadcasts. You might be better off saving your money for a while – at least until the next best thing comes out.
