HD vs. SD

With all the options available in today’s home entertainment market, it’s little wonder that many customers find themselves confused when walking the aisles of their local big box store or perusing televisions, media players, remote controls, and other devices on the Internet.

One point of confusion for many consumers is the high definition television, or HD. Many consumers aren’t sure what HD really is, why they need it, or why it’s worth paying a little more for. The following facts may help consumers get a better grasp of what HD television is, why it’s better than standard definition television, or SD, and how it can enhance their viewing experience.

The main difference between HD and SD televisions are the number of pixels on screen. HD televisions have many more pixels than SD, making them able to show pictures with much greater detail.

The difference between HD and SD is most noticeable on large screen televisions. When you’re watching a movie or television show on a 55-inch television, the difference is like watching television with your glasses on or off. The picture is much crisper and more refined on an HD television.

HD will bring out flaws and imperfections. Because of the enhanced detail, pretty much every nick, zit, scar, or flaw a person has will be easy to see on screen. You may want to use your HD television for watching films and keep an SD set for home movies.
