The Samsung LN52B750 52 inch 1080p LCD HDTV has been breaking records since it’s recent release. This is probably because of some of it’s newest features are the best possible that money can buy.
The Samsung LN52B750 comes with 1080p resolution. This is a grey area when it comes to finding the best HDTV for most people as they don’t really know what 1080p even is!
1080p means 1080 “progressive scans”. A progressive scan is a vertical line of reslolution on your TV screen. 1080p is now the highest screen quality available to buy since 720p.
The more progressive scans a television has, the more pixels the screen will have, and the better quality it’s images will be. A good example for me to use to explain all about this would be mobile phone cameras. If you were to compare a mobile phone’s images with images of a top of the line digital camera, the quality of the images of the digital camera would be far more sharper. The reason for this is because its images have more pixels and the same principal goes for TVs.
Try to imagine your TV screen as a grid of hundreds of thousands of tiny little squares on it. Each square of this grid is called a pixel and each pixel can only be one color at any one time.
If you replaced this grid with one with many more, smaller squares or “pixels”, then the images of your HDTV would be much clearer and sharper from then on. This is because the smaller each pixel is, the more detail can be shown on screen.
Assuming you’re watching a 1080p screen with 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, your TV will have 1080 lines of vertical resolution and 1920 lines of horizontal resolution. That is a heck of a lot of pixels to watch a movie or TV show on - two million, seventy three thousand and six hundred to be exact!
So in conclusion, the more progressive scans your HDTV has, the more pixels it will have, and the more pixels it has, the clearer and sharper the images will be. 1080p is the pinnacle of HDTV technology and the sharpest picture quality money can possibly buy.
As you well know, the Samsung LN52B750 52 inch LCD HDTV comes with 1080p - And I must say, 52 inches of crystal clear image is absolutely mind blowing!
