If a new TV is at the top of your wish list for Christmas, be well prepared before you hit the stores by doing a little research.

If you’re looking for the full high definition experience then the first thing is to ensure the set you’re looking at is capable to delivering 1080p resolution which is 1920pixels wide by 1080 high.

You now also have a choice of technologies used in new HD screens being LCD, LED LCD and Plasma.
