Buying Guide: Active or passive 3D TV?

Here's a question that often comes up ... A 3D TV yes but what technology, active or passive? I will try to show you the differences between the passive 3D technology and active 3D technology.

Buying Guide: The 3D Active and passive: the resolution
Display TVs using active 3D technology Resolution: 1920 x 1080 pixels
Display TVs using passive 3D technology Resolution: 1920 x 540 pixels
And yes, we see here that in 3D mode the resolution of active 3D TV is superior to that of a passive 3D TV.
Glasses provided or not for 3D TV?
For passive 3D glasses are always supplied with the 3D tv.
For active 3D glasses are not provided systematically but some provide the 3D tv.

3D TV active and passive advantages and disadvantages
I'd recommend a 3D TV active to that means the price of glasses is between 80 and 150 euros, while those passive glasses cost only a few euros.
I recommend the passive 3D glasses for the person already wearing a pair of glasses to view (the weight of active glasses is 2-3x higher than the passive glasses).
If you have a 3D TV over 50 "or more preferred active technology for higher resolution in 3D mode.
Passive 3D is more recent than the active 3D you have a wider choice of model with the latter.
Finally, note that the active 3D eyes tired faster than passive.

3D glasses for any brand?
Not. If you have an active 3D TV from Panasonic it will then buy 3D glasses from the same brand. And this is obviously the case for other brands like Samsung or LG

A point on the 3D TV

I notice that a lot of people are still wondering how 3D works and ask me questions like, "Is it mandatory 3D glasses? "" Is that I can watch my tv channels in 3D or is it necessarily a 3D bluray? "" Besides the spectacles do we need a sensor? ".
I will try to answer these questions as simply as possible :-)
Questions / answers about the 3D

Q: Is it mandatory 3D glasses?
A: For now, yes, the 3D glasses are required for 3D viewing source on your 3D TV set. But in the course of the year come out 3D models TVs can do without these glasses.

Q: Can I watch my 3D TV channels or does it necessarily a 3D bluray? "
A: Yes you can watch your TV program in 3D by pressing a single button on your remote, but know that the result is far from the result you can have watching a 3D bluray.

Q: Do I need a sensor in addition to glasses and my 3D tv?
A: No, no sensor required the TV and 3D glasses do all the work;)

Q: The 3D technology is she quickly disappear?
A: I am not psychic and can not answer this question with certainty. What most people often blame the technology is wearing 3D glasses but future 3D TVs without glasses will remove this defect.

This is essentially, if you have any questions regarding 3D you can ask me here, if the question is relevant I'll update the article with your question.
