Westinghouse Shipping TX-Series LCD HDTVs

By

Just in time for the Cedia expo, Westinghouse Digital Electronics is now shipping its TX-series LCD high-definition televisions in 42-inch, 47-inch, and 52-inch sizes. Aiming at the high-end home theater market, the displays offer an integrated ATSC/NTSC/ClearQAM tuner and a bevy of connectivity options, including four HDMI inputs, two component ins, along with composite, S-Video, and VGA input.

"Westinghouse Digital has a long standing history of providing the highest quality LCD HDTVs to consumers and our new TX Series and full family of Pro AV models further that tradition," states marketing VP Rey Roque, in a statement. "Westinghouse Digital provides the CEDIA and custom installation markets the same commitment to excellence as with our consumer displays and has tailored and designed our technology and LCD HDTVs to meet the unique needs of these growing market segments."

The TX series displays offer 1080p resolution out of all HD-capable connectors, intelligent cable management, DayBright technology for optimum daytime or nighttime viewing, and circuitry which automatically turns the TV on when it detects an external video source. The sets incorporate the high-performance Trident chipset for fast image processing.

LED vs. LCD TVs explained: What’s the difference?
Picture mode settings are shown over an image of jelly beans on a Samsung QN90C.

Shopping for a new TV (especially if you haven’t done so in a few years) can be a crash course in three to four-letter acronyms. From sales floor price tags to online marketing, Samsung, LG, Sony, TCL, Hisense, and every TV brand under the sun is all about the tech verbiage -- QLED, OLED, mini-LED, QD-OLED, UHD, HD (these are just a handful of the go-to selections). But each one of these acronyms stands for something important, which in most cases is the kind of picture technology the TV is utilizing to give you things like mesmerizing brightness, rich colors, and awesome black levels. 

But as products continue to evolve, there’s one set of TV acronyms that may not get the kind of magnifying glass attention it once commanded, even though it’s certainly still relevant when it comes to how your TV is illuminated, and that’s LED and LCD. Even though most TVs are actually LEDs these days, LCDs are definitely still around, and it pays to know the difference between both of these lighting technologies. Thus, we’ve put together this handy explainer to help you decide which is better, as well as the similarities and differences between both display types.
