The evolution of television

If you are planning to buy a new TV any time soon, the decision which one to buy will not be as simple as you may think. You’ll have to consider many things such as the size of the screen, display type (plasma, LCD, LED, or OLED), resolution, and so on. The choice is huge these days, plus new models keep coming out with all those cool and interesting features, but as you know that was not always the case. TVs come a long way to be as great as they are today. Take a look at the photos below to see how the television has evolved.
