CRT vs LCD monitors

Hi have you ever wondered what is the difference between this two monitors? Well first of all when it comes to durability CRT monitors suits well but when it comes to class and energy saving. LCD monitors is the choice. CRT monitors now a days are commonly used in computer shop / rentals. LCD monitors can also be used but for the customers who are reckless I do not recommend LCD.

LCD screens:
-Use less electricity
-more vulnerable
-and of course uses LCD lights

CRT screens:
-More electricity
-HEAVY!!
-Pretty tough
-Use electrons and fosferus (don't know spelling) to show light

CRT is short for cathode-ray tubes while LCD stands for liquid crystal dispaly.. There are many differences of CRT and LCD monitors.. From the resolution and viewing quality, the screen size, the physical size and to the actual price of each monitor..

Hmm I personally agree that LCD really outsmart CRT monitors but what if it is for computer rentals / cafe ? For me I suggest the use of CRT monitors due to its durability. Some customers and mostly kids are so naughty that they even touch the LCD monitor screen with their wet fingers. LOLZ.

The LCD is better at everything, price, size, qwality, view pixels, ....

And why you should use CRT in a internet cafe ? Wet fingers are bad for both of them and people will think you are old and don't have money to buy new LCD's

LCD is just very cheap these days and you just should take a lcd (140 euro for 22")

The big and enormous advantage with LCD monitors, i.e you can power it with only 12Volts meaning 8 little batteries .. it is damn useful to have a screen that can be powered with such less current, since you can use it with your lighter plug in your car and even at home, using this monitor will make considerable savings in electricity bill.
Also, LCD monitor is classified as A class & A plus Class product .
I am new around, please THANKS me for my post

I prefer a lcd for using an lcd!

I do agree with all of you guys. LCD really outsmarts CRT monitors. LCD gives more quality and the pictures are so cool

I think nowadays many people prefer LCD monitor. Using CRT can irritates eyes as of its radiation.

I'm not so much into the technical differences between the two types, but in my opinion the biggest advantage that LCD have over CRT screens is the physical size. For example on my current desk there's not too much space to start with, and once I bought myself a LCD screen and abandoned the old CRT one I have been able to make the desk somewhat spacious enough. For me, there's not much looking back to the "old CRT ages".

The present LCD superiority is bigger than CRT,If is not the specialized charting personnel ,LCD is enough.

LCD have better resolution, irritates less the user's eyes, uses less energy either in use or stand-by, is smaller and much lighter. Also design wise a LCD monitor is much better right? Slim and sexy.
CRT will probably have their production ceased soon as they're becoming obsolete and most of costumers prefer LCD, something we can see on this thread already

As far as the size is concern, LCD is really cool! It's slim and sexy? yes, you are right..

And CRT, well it is becoming obsolete already.. But there are a lot who are still using here in our area because it is cheaper than LCD monitors..

Yeah, the CRT is still, to some extent, alive and kicking... Although quickly becoming totally obsolete, but one can nowadays get some big CRT screens in top-notch condition for practically free. So for someone looking for a screen with an extremely tight budget, a free monitor would be a boon. Don't know about the rest of the world, but in my country it's not uncommon to see "good" CRT screens in flea markets or such, sometimes even for free. I personally wouldn't have any need for them, but someone might find the opportunity a blessing.

yes, that's right! But here in our country specifically here in our area, we couldn't find anything that is free.. Even a small CRT screen is a bit expensive, how much more the big ones..

CRT - The heavy original CRT, or cathode ray tube, is a type of monitor that was invented by a German physicist in the early 1920s. The bulky screens that were very commonly sold with computers in the 80s and 90s are an adaptation of this technology. CRT monitors use a cathode ray gun located in the back of the monitor to shoot electrons to the front to create the picture. These rays are deciphered by the video card as red, green, and blue channels.
LCD - The lightweight, sleek choice
LCD, or liquid crystal display, monitors are much newer than CRT and are now the standard for desktop and laptop computer systems. Like CRT, these monitors use electricity to create a picture on a screen. LCD monitors are known for being lightweight and smaller. These monitors are very power efficient when compared to CRT. LCD monitors create their picture on the screen by sandwiching the liquid crystals between polarized glass, then aligning them with electrical fields. Every dot on an LCD screen is called a pixel. A pixel is a comprised of three cells…red, blue, and green.
It is important to note, that LCD monitors are the most popular these days. They have come down in price tremendously and are great for offices since they save so much space. When shopping for any monitor, make sure that its native resolution is one that your computer supports.

CRT monitors are heavy and physically they cover more area. thats what i dont like about them.. but LCT have better picture quality they save electricity, space and are lighter than crt monitors

apart from this LCD monitors are so light weight and they cover so less space. They also have better designs and looks. Which looks good in houses and offices.

I use LCD...they are lighter to handle..look better and they use less electricty

at work,i have 2 lcd 19" monitors , LG.
at home I have a benq 19" wide screen monitor.
the LCD monitors realease less radiation than a crt monitor, and are better for the eyes.
and are energy saving devices.
salve!

The only reason CRT are still in use is probably because in some countries this type of monitor is cheaper and also because there are those whose CRT monitors is still working fine and, therefore, there's apparently no real reason to change to a LCD one.

I prefer to use LCD monitors than those CRT monitors... what I like about using LCD monitors is that it uses very small amounts of electric power.

i havent encounter a CRT. how does it look? well in this case i think LCD monitors are better because they are sleek and space saving. but in terms of affordability, you need to cash out large bucks to have good lcd monitors right?

Nice information and many good differences between the LCD and CRT screens .And seen this i would prefer LCD screen

Well I am currently having LRT monitor as when i purchased it, LCD monitors were very expensive and since then there is no issue of purchasing a new one. If i got to buy a new one, then certainly i will go with LCD ones now.

LCD screens also tend to produce less eye fatigue to the user. The constant light barrage and scan lines of a CRT tube tend to cause strain on heavy computer users. The lower intensity of the LCD monitors coupled with their constant screen display of pixels being on or off produces less fatigue for the user.
The primary advantage that CRT monitors held over LCDs was their color rendering. The contrast ratios and depths of colors displayed were much greater with CRT monitors than LCDs.
Generally speaking, i prefer LCDS.
