I thought a TV was just a TV...picture matters

Buying a TV can be like buying a car, when it comes to picture & features

 When people make big purchases usually they spend a little time researching it and finding out what their best option is. I do the same, and that is an excellent idea. When clients come in or call us looking for a new TV we find they think a TV is just a TV, and rightfully so. Unless your selling sets, and have been in the business for years, you wouldn't know that there is more than one model of TV in each size range.

 Just as car models have trim levels based on features, so do TV's. Once we start educating our clients and explaining the differences, they have a new appreciation and understanding of what they are buying. In both Samsung & Sony TV's these features are things such as QLED, Full array back light, HDR, 4K, Voice search, Triluminos color, Extended Dynamic Range Pro, local LED dimming and more.

 Say you are thinking of replacing your main TV, and your thinking of either a 55", 65", 75" or 85" TV, in most manufacturers lineup of those sizes there can be up to 4 models, all different in features. Some of these features have to do with using voice search, and others have to do with how good of picture quality you want. Make no mistake, Samsung & Sony work exceptionally hard at having outstanding picture quality on their TV's, and different models show these features.

 We love explaining and showing the differences in features to our clients, as in the end we let the consumer decide what is best for them. Sometimes all you need is a basic 4K TV, other times clients want exceptional picture.   Our approach is to show them the differences these manufacturers have to offer, then let them decide what is best for their needs so they know they made the right decision. Don't forget our prices on Samsung, Sony, and all TV's match those of big box stores & the internet for the same models, so why not let us provide expert consultation before you buy. Sometimes this can even involve in home consultations to best meet your needs.

 So if your in the market for a new TV give us a call, contact us, or setup a time to stop in. We would love to show you what these different models have to offer in your size range, that way you can make an informed decision when you decide to make the purchase. We find many happy and thankful clients that are glad someone took the time to explain the differences to them, giving them a peace of mind about their purchase.
