A TV with 100hz will be ideal for sports fans and action movie buffs. The smooth processing power of the TV allows for fast-paced action to be presented in a blur-free manner.
A standard TV broadcast is composed of 25 frames (pictures) per second. Each frame is split into two 'fields' for transmission. Each of these 'fields' contains a half of the lines (the odd number of lines in one, even numbers in the other). These fields are transmitted at twice the frame rate... thus 50Hz!
Your TV then cleverly creates the full picture by scanning the odd numbered lines, followed by the even.
An 100Hz TV will do all this.. but twice over and in the same time. This helps reduce blurring and visible flicking as you're effectively seeing 50 frames per second instead of the 25.
All our TVs have integrated Freeview or Freeview HD tuners. Freeview is the easiest way to enjoy digital TV for free. You can get up to 50 TV channels through your aerial with no subscription and no contract. A TV with Freeview HD will allow you to also enjoy an extra 4 HD channels including BBC One HD, BBC HD, Channel 4 HD and ITV 1 HD.
HD will bring you up to 5 times the details of standard definition with stunning picture quality, clarity and sharpness. The increased depth and realism will really bring your programmes to life.
3D TVs offer viewers a new way in which to enjoy their cinematic experience. 3D content adds depth of field to the action - making pictures come to life before your very eyes. There are two types of 3D availbale - Passive and Active. Our TVs contain Passive 3D.
Passive (polarized) 3D technology delivers a flicker-free tri-dimensional viewing experience, as well as allowing for cheaper, lighter and more comfortable 3D glasses. As a result the technology is perfect for watching 3D films with the kids or having your mates round to watch 3D sporting action.
Passive 3D glasses create the illusion of 3D images by restricting the light that reaches each eye. The glasses which also contain a pair of polarizing filters. As each filter passes only that light which is similarly polarized. Each eye sees only its separately polarized image, producing a three-dimensional effect.
Unlike Active 3D glasses, passive glasses require no batteries - so you won't have to worry about recharging your glasses.
Passive 3D glasses are lightweight at just almost half the weight of conventional 3D glasses - making them easier to enjoy 3D TV with.
Passive 3D provides greater viewing angles compared to active 3D as unless you are sitting within a few degrees of centre and with almost zero horizontal (head) tilt, the contrast, brightness and image quality plummets with active 3D glasses.
If your 3D TV features 2D-3D upscaling then your TV will transform normal 2D programming into the third dimension – allowing you to enjoy all your favourite channels with greater depth and enjoyment. However, the 3D effect won't be as great as a 3D blu-ray movie from a blu-ray player.
A common perception of 3D TVs is that if you don't have access to 3D content then you'd be better off getting a non 3D model. This simply isn't the case. 3D TVs offer the greatest picture quality in both 3D and 2D, so it's better to make your TV future proof by buying a 3D TV now then regretting not having the future when 3D becomes common place within the nation’s living rooms.
Our glasses are comfortable and lightweight. All our TVs come bundled with pairs, in either 4x or 8x bundles. You can buy more at anytime by visiting the TV Accessories section of our site.
