What are some Similarities and differences between Television and computer?

HDTVs are primarily designed for entertainment purposes, with users viewing content via Blu-ray, DVD, broadcast, cable and internet streaming. Computer Monitors are generally intended to be connected to desktop towers or laptop computers, and to display data, text, pictures and videos. There are some similarities and differences between the two, including the image technology, screen sizes, viewing distances and connectivity options.

1. Computer monitors tend to have much higher resolutions compared to most TV sets.
2. Computer monitors have limited input options, while TV sets have a lot of input connectors.
3. Computer monitors do not have a tuner, while TV sets do.
4. Computer monitors tend to not have built-in speakers, while TV sets do.
5. Computer monitors tend to be much smaller compared to most modern TV sets.

Computer monitor only serves as a display, while TV is more than a display. Computer monitor needs external devices in order to use, while TV is almost all in one. Many TV set users actually use TV as display or monitor for digital TV box. Computer monitors usually smaller, while TVs usually bigger.
