10 Best 4K Ultra HD TV to Buy 2014

Zak Ben - Thursday, May 22, 2014
Earlier this year we published a ranking of the best 10 BEST TELEVISION LED / LCD 2014 . In this classification, initially published by the website tv.toptenreviews.com, we listed the ones that were the best TVs under 1,500 euros in the first quarter of 2014.

The ranking excluded 4K TVs is because of the cheap price "human" (LG 84LM960V is on sale at 25,000 Euros!) that content available for the few (only a few products on the market are capable of recording in 4K).

A few months later, we think it's time to talk about 4k Ultra HD , first trying to figure out what it is and then to list the ones that are the best televisions that use this technology.

What is the 4k Ultra HD?

If you were not already confused enough with 3D TVs, OLED, Plasma, LED, that's coming up for you to learn a new acronym that will accompany the brand new televisions 4K Ultra High Definition (UHD).

The 4k is a new standard that will lead to a much higher level of the definition televisions, tablets, smartphones and cameras. 
resolution much broader, double the 1080p HD allow you to get super detailed and realistic images.

It's called 4K or UHD?

In the beginning was the CEA to introduce the ' Ultra High Definition . In practice, all TVs with a resolution 3,840 x 2,160 pixels were called but no more than 4K UHD . 
use the acronym to refer to a 4K UHD TV is actually not entirely correct, since a 4K TV has a resolution of 4096 x 2160 pixels and a Uhd is 3840 x 2160 pixels. 4k But the (real) is a panel that no manufacturer would dream to achieve for a TV, since that would be to review all the mechanisms of production. Much easier then create panels to 3,840 x 2,160 pixels.

Sony decides to use for its products by 3840 pixels   both acronyms 4k Ultra HD . And apparently, all the other companies are adopting the same expression, interchanging the letters and UltraHD 4k depending on the circumstances.

It should now buy a 4K UHD?

As often happens, the producers of televisions repackage futuristic hardware without considering the limited availability of playable content. In fact, there are even television stations that broadcast in 4K, and there are very few movies youtube video and recording devices in Ultra Hd still cost a bit too high. Ultimately, now buy a 4K TV from a few thousand euro, there would fully exploit its full potential.
