The Fujitsu P42HTS40GS Digital TV - LCD Flat Screen TV, Not One Of The Best

Ask anyone that has watched the many channels that Digital TV provides and they will tell you it's now a "can't-do-without" ingredient in their lives. You will also be gripped with this fever if you experience the magic that Digital TV has to offer. Many reasons are responsible for the preference of Digital TV over Cable TV these days.

One of the reasons is the fact that you can watch your favourite channels and get access to information. With all the channels that exist on Digital TV, you just can't go wrong with the experience. I wish I was a still a child during this age of Digital TV as I could have access to as many of the channels they now have access to.

If you look at it closely, affordability is still the major reason why most love Digital TV. Subscribers of Digital TV can easily pay than for the service than Cable TV pay for theirs. It still beats many people's imagination. More should cost more, not less.

It certainly makes no sense to keep paying more money yet receiving less. Ask any lover of Digital TV and they will confess to you that their greatest love for the technology isn't just the name - Digital TV - but the variety of channels they are now presented with. You have a varied options when it comes to Digital TV - from entertainment channels, comedy channels, movie channels, drama channels, etc, Digital TV is the way to go for everyone. Who will continue to stick to Cable TV when Digital TV exists with more variety.

Having discussed the impact that Digital TV has had on our lives how does this impact upon the Fujitsu P42HTS40GS Digital TV.

The P42HTS40GS is a 42in Plasma TV and the prices for these are around 2000 pounds sterling or 4000 US dollars. The screen resolution is 1024 X 1024 and with regards to being HD Ready the answer is yes. The Fujitsu has 3 (3 RGB) scarts and the type and number of Multimedia interfaces the P42HTS40GS uses is HDMI and DVI and there are one of each. The type of Tuner for this TV is Analogue and the Fujitsu is available from limited outlets only.

All these points being taken into consideration, how would we view the Fujitsu P42HTS40GS?

First up, we would look at the picture quality and our score here would be 2, next we would look at the sound quality and our view of this would be not applicable. With regards to the availability and number of relevant connections, our score would be 10. If we take a look at the overall "featureability" our score would be 8 if we then take a look at the ease of use and overall value for money then our scores would be, 8 and 4 respectively.

Taking everything into consideration our overall view of the package would be had this been s lightly cheaper model or certainly within the budget "category / bracket" then we might have been slightly more enthusiastic about this but not for the money it is supposedly asking then it doesn't do enough for us I'm afraid.

With the wide range and variety of makes and models available for you to choose from it is unlikely that you will not find something to suite your taste or satisfy any budgetary constraints that you might have. You could either opt for one of the more cutting edge newer options available or stay safe and go for one of the more established options available. No matter what rout you take we hope that after reading this article you should be more informed as to the correct choice with which to take.
