The difference between smart TV and ordinary TV

What is smart TV? Smart TV is a new product based on the impact of the Internet wave, which aims to bring users a more convenient experience and has become the trend of TV. Smart TV is a brand-new TV product with a completely open platform and operating system. Users can install and uninstall all kinds of application software while enjoying ordinary TV content, and constantly expand and upgrade their functions. The following is the difference between smart TV and ordinary TV that I arranged for you. Welcome everyone to learn from it. I hope it helps you.

First, what is smart TV

Smart TV is a kind of TV, which has a completely open platform and an operating system inside. While watching TV programs, friends can install and download various application software by themselves, and constantly expand and upgrade the functions of TV. Different from ordinary TV sets, smart TV can continuously bring various personalized experiences to customers.

Smart TV has the following characteristics:

(1) has powerful hardware equipment, including high-speed processor and certain storage space, which is used to run and store applications;

(2) Equipped with an intelligent operating system, users can install, run and uninstall software, games and other applications by themselves;

(3) Access to the public Internet;

(4) Interactive application in various ways, such as new human-computer interaction, multi-screen interaction and content sharing.

Second, the advantages and disadvantages of smart TV analysis

Every product has its own advantages and disadvantages, and smart TV is no exception. At present, it is the initial stage of the development of smart TV, and there are still some shortcomings behind many advantages. Let's take a look:

1, Advantages of Smart TV

(1) Different from ordinary TV sets, smart TV has many application services such as network search, digital music, network video TV and so on.

(2) Smart TV is the third information acquisition terminal after computers and mobile phones, and users can get the information they need anytime and anywhere;

(3) Advantage 3: Smart TV has a brand-new remote control device, and can also be connected with various mobile terminals for interaction.

(4) Smart TV is an intelligent device, which can realize cross-platform search among TV, programs and networks.

(5) Smart TV is also an "entertainment center". Users can search TV channels and record TV programs through smart TV. You can play cable TV programs through smart TV; You can also conduct online video and so on through smart TV.

2. Shortcomings of smart TV

(1) Most smart TVs on the market now use the Android operating system, which is an operating system for mobile terminals. If it is to be applied on TV platform, it needs to be transplanted. However, due to targeted problems, it is still difficult for Android system to perfectly support flat-panel TV.

(2) The interaction between users and digital home devices is realized by the remote controller, and many complicated projects cannot be realized by an old TV remote controller;

(3) The remarkable feature of smart TV is that it has an open TV application store, which provides rich application software for users to download freely and create their own personalized TV. At present, the scope of smart TV application stores is still relatively small, and most domestic brand application stores have no more than 10 programs, which needs to be expanded.

Third, the difference between smart TV and ordinary TV

The most intuitive understanding is that the difference between smart TV and ordinary TV is just like the difference between smart phone and ordinary mobile phone. Smart TV connects the Internet with TV and can provide users with wireless content and services. Can provide users with a complete Internet experience, including search function. Using intelligent adoption system and completely open platform, application developers and software lovers all over the world can write programs and software for it.

The final development of smart TV should be similar to that of smart phone, with its own powerful operating system and completely open platform. Users can freely choose the software and games provided by third-party service providers, and even develop related applications by themselves, and install and uninstall them on the TV platform, thus enriching their TV functions.

Fourth, the difference between smart TV and Internet TV

Internet TV is the use of Internet technology, through the Internet transmission, to provide video entertainment content to integrated Internet TV. Users only need to connect broadband to TV, so they can realize on-demand movies, TV plays and entertainment programs. The interface and service of Internet TV are fixed and cannot be matched according to consumers' wishes.

Smart TV is also widely used through the Internet, but it is not exactly the same as Internet TV. Smart TV is an open platform. Developers can develop many applications and load "unlimited content, unlimited applications".

Five or three series of smart TV systems

One of the prerequisites for the realization of TV intelligence is to have a powerful intelligent system. At present, the intelligent systems used in smart 3D TVs that have been listed can be roughly divided into three categories: Android, Windows and enterprise-built systems.

1, a smart TV with WINDOWS as its operating system.

This is a very mainstream operating system, which has accumulated a large number of applications for several years and has a strong CPU. Transforming all PC applications into a perfect TV experience is unmatched by any system.

2. Super smart TV based on ANDROID.

ANDROID system is the current open platform and the mainstream in the future.

The system has a large number of developers and has been successfully applied to smart phones, with relatively low cost and great development potential.

3. Enterprises build their own operating systems.

For example, Konka's OMI operating system based on Linux system, combined with computer open source technology, can carry out personalized loading and run applications developed by SDK software; HITV-0S operating system independently developed by Hisense, supported by background system, can realize functions such as uploading, downloading and billing of App.

Android system is open source, stable and free because of its core code, while Windows system has become the most mainstream operating system in the world because of its huge user base and strong compatibility, and it has also been widely adopted by color TV manufacturers in new smart 3D TV products. Among the smart TVs that have been launched, Skyworth, Changhong and other smart TVs mainly adopt Android system, and some foreign brands adopt Windows operating system; TCL adopts both Android+ and Windows dual systems.

Editor's summary: The above is the secret of smart TV experts: the relevant introduction of the difference between smart TV and ordinary TV. Smart TV is the main trend of TV development in the future, and the traditional TV industry is experiencing new models and product changes. Can smart TV be the next glory after smart phones? The answer is yes or no, the key is to customize a unified standard, and the application between brands forms a * * * communication, rather than moving forward independently.

Expansion: Smart TV shopping tips

1. Determine the appropriate purchase scale.

Generally speaking, we determine the size of flat-screen TV according to the size of the room and the viewing distance. In fact, the purchase area should be selected mainly according to the viewing distance, but in order to make the home layout harmonious, the room area can be used as an alternative parameter to determine the purchase area. The recommended reference is: within a straight line distance of three meters, the room size is less than 20 square meters, and 25-29 inches is selected; The linear distance of about three meters, the room size is 20 ~ 30 square meters, choose 29-34 inches; The linear distance is about four meters, the room size is 30 ~ 40 square meters, and 35-43 inches is selected; The straight-line distance is more than four meters, and the room area is more than 50 square meters. Choose an LCD TV of more than 43 inches.

2. Actual resolution of LCD TV

The actual resolution of LCD TV refers to the resolution that LCD TV can achieve. Generally, the resolution above 1280x768 should be selected. The product with the above resolution will be much better if you watch HDTV and make a computer multimedia terminal. Also, because of the working principle of LCD, the resolution of LCD TV is fixed, and its best resolution is its actual resolution. When we connect to the computer, we'd better choose the resolution setting closest to the resolution of the LCD TV. At present, LCD TVs mainly have several common resolutions, such as 800×600, 1280×768, 1366×768, 1920× 1080.

3, the problem of bad points and bright spots

The easiest way to check the bright spot of LCD TV is to make the screen completely black. See if there are bright spots in the dark at a distance of about 30 cm from the LCD TV screen. Then make the screen all white and see if there are any bad points. Then change to red, green and blue to check the integrity of color points, and see if the brightness of the picture is uniform at a distance of about 2.5 meters. These checks should ensure that the whole screen is solid color.

4. Response time

Response time is also very important, which will determine whether there will be blurring and tailing when displaying high-speed dynamic pictures. At present, the mainstream response time of 8 milliseconds can meet the requirements. Generally speaking, the faster the reaction time, the less smear and afterimage appear on LCD TV. It is best to see the actual effect of playing action movies before buying.

5. Hard screen or soft screen?

Only "soft" and "hard" can not accurately distinguish the quality of LCD panels. At present, there are indeed some LCD panels with hard materials such as glass or resin added outside to prevent ordinary LCD screens from being scratched. However, from the current production level, there is no obvious difference in quality between the so-called hard screen and soft screen. The protective film added to the hard screen will not cause poor light transmission, and the bonding process between the film and the screen is also quite elegant. Soft screens without protective outer film are generally not easy to be scratched as long as consumers pay attention when using them, without gravity impact and scratching by sharp objects. Therefore, the choice of LCD should not only look at the hardness of the screen, but also look at the brand and quality.

Television selection guide

1, clarity

The definition of TV sets is the most important issue that we need to pay attention to when buying TV sets, and it is also the issue that people are most concerned about. The definition of TV is also the resolution of TV. The higher the resolution, the clearer the TV picture. LCD TVs generally have several resolutions such as 800×600, 1280×768, 1366×768. However, the resolution of 4K TV now seems to be four times that of LCD TV, which is a higher resolution TV.

2. Screen quality

People also pay attention to the quality of TV sets, and the high definition of LCD TV pictures is its advantage. But in some cases, when watching movies with LCD TV, it can be found that LCD TV may appear tailing phenomenon in high-speed dynamic pictures, but plasma TV has some advantages over LCD TV.

3. Response speed

Compared with plasma TV, the response speed of LCD TV can be regarded as a weakness of LCD TV. The reaction speed of plasma TV is faster than that of LCD TV. The faster the response speed, the less TV tailing. The tailing phenomenon of LCD TV screen is also caused by the slow response speed of LCD TV.

4. Size

The size of the TV depends on the size of the room. The bigger the TV screen, the greater the best viewing distance when watching TV. If the room is too small, the size of the TV is very large, and it is easy to oppress the user's eyes when watching. It hurts users' eyes, so the choice of LCD TV size also needs to be decided according to the actual situation of the room.

5. Brightness selection

The brightness of TV sets is also one of the important factors for us to buy TV sets. The brightness of TV is too low for us to show the effect when watching some dim scenes. At the same time, the brightness of the TV is too low, which will also affect the clarity and image quality of the TV. However, this does not mean that the brighter the TV, the better. Too high brightness of TV will burn people's eyes, so pay attention to whether the brightness of TV is uniform when buying.

6, color choice

The choice of TV color is also a focus of our attention. The choice of TV color is not to let people choose the color of TV appearance, but the color of TV picture. Now the TV closest to the natural color is better, so that the color of TV is more restored and more acceptable to people. If the true color of the object is restored, the user's viewing experience will be more realistic.
