What makes a plasma so special?

Yes, there is a difference. LCD and plasma technologies continue to improve, but currently the largest television screens are made with plasma screens.

Plasma screens are going to be heavier than an LCD of the same size usually, and LCDs are more energy efficient.


Why does dust always collect on television and computer screens?

This is mostly true on the older ones, since the screens held an electrostatic charge. So the electron charge attracts dust that has the opposite charge. If the newer stuff is getting dusty, it is a static charge too, but the device is not actively creating it. Plastic can be prone to building a charge on its own or with rubbing.


Televisions come in many shapes and sizes but mostly in a square why?

The early TV screens were a large tube that was developed from round scopes as used in radar and other electronic devices. The TV Tube was made larger and a little more flat on the edges but the early ones appeared almost round. As technology improved, the TV screens became more and more square. So that is why most screens were square and therefore most TV cabinets were also square. MORE INFO TV screens show film and camera images which are rectangular in shape. To make the TV any other shape would either waste screen area or have to delete some of the original image.

Which company will be producing the largest OLED TV soon?

OLED is the latest display technology to be introduced to the domestic television market. It is impossible to predict the largest OLED television and indeed, a little pointless to look at size as a milestone in LED television technology. OLED allows LEDs to be printed onto a substrate at very small sales so it is ideal for small screens. As the screen size increases, conventional LEDs become more viable than OLED. The largest true LED driven screens are those seen in open air and concerts, up to 40 feet wide or more. At present, commercial factors will decide the largest OLED display to be marketed. Those people who are looking for huge screens still have an option to consider conventional LED displays. Note that LED displays referred to here means the displays that use LEDs to generate the image and not as back lights for LCD displays.
