What are the inherent differences between a Plasma screen TV and an LCD screen?

A plasma screen is based similar to a fluorescent light bulb where the image displays make up of cells. The images consist of pixels and they display images using a combination of colors.

LCD uses a completely different technology compared to the typical plasma screen. It consists of 2 layers of transparent material. One of them is polarized while the other is coated with a special polymer that binds together sets of liquid crystals and they depend on an external light source, unlike the Plasma screen, to produce sparkling images.

Basically, plasma screens are larger, have deeper colors and are more accurate in terms of color and saturation. They are also better at tracking pictures (not as prone to lag). However, they are actually more susceptible to the burn-in of static images and generate more heat in general. There are also screening altitude problems – especially when you place them at higher altitudes. Prolonged usage of plasma screens also causes them to burn out quickly.

LCD on the other hand has no burn-in problems. They are also able to run at cooler temperatures and are not as prone to altitude problems compared to Plasma screens. The images are also considerably brighter compared to plasma screens. LCD screens are has more lag problems compared to its counterpart.

At the end of the day, regardless of whether you choose a Plasma screen or an LCD screen, the best option is to see which of these screens fall within your budget because you have to factor in maintenance costs as well.
