They are very thin and light, and the resolution of their screen can already reach 4K and even 8K.Of course, not all manufacturers produce high-quality products. Today, we will talk only about those, most of whose products deserve the words of praise.
The best manufacturers of TVs
LG
Many of us remember video recorders and TVs Goldstar, mass produced in the 1990's. They had an excellent price-quality ratio, due to which they enjoyed great demand among Russians, not to mention the inhabitants of their native South Korea. In the mid-1990s, this company merged with Lucky, resulting in the emergence of a conglomerate LG Group. Now it consists of several divisions. TV production is occupied by LG Electronics. It must be said that modern TVs are not a pair of devices twenty years ago. Now the buyer can buy a TV with a curved display. Moreover, the screen can be executed on OLED-technology, when each pixel shines independently.
Buyers love LG TVs not only for a clear picture and cute design, but for several other reasons. First, these devices are relatively cheap - especially against the background of the products of several of the most serious competitors.

Panasonic
The Japanese company Panasonic was founded in 1918, then under a very different name, which it would be impossible to pronounce a European and an American. At first the manufacturer was engaged in the production of various electrical engineering. Later, the production of radio receivers began, many of which were sent abroad, where they were distributed under the National brand. Later on, the Panasonic TVs began to appear. In the 1990s, so-called video-sets were very popular - televisions with a built-in video recorder. Well and then in this world there was a revolution, kineskopnaja production has sharply left in the past.
Modern Panasonic TVs use a LCD display from third-party companies - most often supplied by Sharp and LG.The rest of the electronics is used own.

Philips
The Netherlands company exists since 1891.Now it consists of three divisions engaged in the production of household appliances, light solutions and technologically sophisticated medical devices. The third unit brings the greatest profit, since x-ray machines and other complex equipment are required for developed countries always. Not bad and feels that part of the company that produces light bulbs and LEDs. Well, household appliances Philips, although you can find in any store, but it does not bring a special profit. It came to the point that the right to produce TVs under the Philips brand was sold to TP Vision. Therefore, do not consider such devices as Dutch - from Philips, they have almost nothing left.
However, the sale of the production of TVs has not prevented them from remaining very popular. Philips LCD TVs can still be found in almost every store that sells similar technology. People like the low price, and good characteristics. It should be noted that many models support the Ambilight backlight function, which visually makes the picture more voluminous.

Samsung
South Korean company Samsung is now actively developing smart technologies. Therefore, it should not be surprising that in most cases the Smart TV function on Samsung TVs works without any complaints. Still it can not be overlooked that competitors are gradually abandoning their television channels. This is due to the fact that Samsung is gradually reducing the price of its products, while the rest of the company can not do this - otherwise they will face big losses.
And still South Koreans are widely known for their displays, created by OLED technologies. Appropriate screens are also endowed with some TVs - in particular, it concerns expensive models with a curved body and large dimensions.

Sony
In the old days it was the Sony TVs that were most in demand. Their popularization began in the twentieth century, when they were kinescope. With the transition to liquid crystal technology at first nothing has changed. The Japanese made their choice in favor of "plasma", believing that the future is just behind it. The rest of the companies began to create traditional LCD TVs, even if the quality of the picture they displayed was initially lower. Later it turned out that Sony was mistaken - gradually LCD screens began to show off and a large number of displayed colors, and a higher contrast, and a shorter response time. And plasma screens differed only in the tendency to burn out individual pixels when displaying a static image.
Of course, the Japanese suddenly realized that in the future they would make all their TVs liquid crystal. But the train, as they say, has already left - competitors began to produce their devices more massively, having the opportunity to reduce the price tag for their products. That's why now Sony TVs are very good, but very expensive. This applies not only to versions with OLED-screen, but also to traditional models.
Advantages:
- The model range is very wide;
- The Japanese give their creations a cute and modern design;
- There are no complaints about the assembly of most models;
- Service developed on the territory of the Russian Federation;
- Very high quality picture;
- A very large number of supported technologies.
Disadvantages:
- High mark-up for the brand.
Which TV company choose
1. When choosing a TV, you can not ignore the brand. He will certainly say a lot. For example, the technique of BBK and SUPRA is unlikely to suit you 100%.Not to mention the fact that such TVs quickly fail. If you do not want to encounter such a problem, then choose the device from one of the companies specified in our selection.
2. Samsung products are distinguished by a democratic price tag and a stable functioning Smart TV.However, in terms of design, it rarely represents something cute and unique.
3. But this can not be said about Sony TVs - almost all of them look chic. But the price tag is much more biting.
4. As for the other manufacturers considered, LG and Philips are among them. And that's only because their products are often sold for quite sane money.
