And remember: More the refreshing rate, better and crisper the images.

4.  Formats supported by the LCD TV:-You should do a detailed check about what kind of formats your LCD-TV support does or it might be a bad deal if the TV in spite of being the latest one does not support your format of videos or inputs.
