What Is The Difference Between A Flat Screen Tv And A Round Tube Tv?

The old style TVs have a vacuum tube and utilize electrons passing through a magnetic field to produce the picture on the screen. The flat screens are actually grids of tiny LEDs (some are LCD) that produce the picture.

What Is The Difference Between A Normal Tv And A Flat Screen?

It depends on what you mean by “flat TV” – are you talking about a flat TUBE or an LCD-type screen. If you are talking about a flat tube vs. a regular tube – which is what I think you mean – the difference is that the flat screen more accurately displays the picture. This is because on a normal tube TV the front of the tube is curved – like looking at an eyeball from the side – and that tends to distort the picture at the edges. A flat screen does not have to bend the picture to fit the curved edges and therefore its a more pleasing, non-modified, uncurved view of the picture. Also, flat screen TVs don’t reflect as much ambient light from the room making it a nicer looking picture during the day.

What Is The Difference Between A Flat Panel And A Flat Tube Tv?

The difference is primarily depth. A tube TV will always be deeper than a flat panel. A flat tube TV means that the screen which the image from the tube is being projected on is flat and not curved like older TVs. A flat panel TV means that the rear of the TV is flat like the front side and can be mounted on a wall like a picture to save space.

At the moment I have a 32″ LCD TV on a TV stand that was designed for a tube TV of that size (We figured that out a little while after we bought it). Now I’d like to know if it would be possible to put a new 50″ plasma on that same stand, or would I need to buy a brand new stand for over $200?

What Would Be The Equivalent Size Of A Full Screen 32″ Flat Tube Tv If Upgrading To An Lcd Widescreen?

they measure tv sizes diagnally across the screen so a 32″ widescreen would have a smaller picture than what I have now when viewing regular TV. I don’t want to go smaller. I want to upgrade for the widescreen aspect on movies and my video consoles. My kids and I only sit about 5-6 feet away so I don’t want to go any bigger than what we have now.
I am going with LCD because Plasma’s will burn (I am also building a home theater PC). I like the DLPs but the 1080 interlaced would probably make the text on my pc blurry (and I live in a 2nd floor apartment – I don’t even want to think about lugging something that big upstairs)

What Is The Difference Between A Flat Screen And A Flat Tube Tv?

A flat tube TV uses glass and phosphor to create a picture, it generates this by heating a cathode made of rare earth metals, or nickel…..
A Flat Screen TV set uses More Organic materials like silicon (glass) and plastic, but not the rare earth metals…
In theory the Flat Screen is safer for the environment over the Flat Tube TV
Reliability is pretty well known to be about 15 years for the Tube, but the jury is still out on the Flat Panel units….
Picture quality is good on both….unless you buy the lowest priced models…
