PAL, SECAM and NTSC
PAL: The PAL system aims to improve upon its predecessors, which is why it has a higher resolution than NTSC and improved coloring over SECAM. PAL also has the ability to keep up with frame rate conversion than NTSC, so watching films will be more fluid.
SECAM: SECAM is one of the early attempts at color television. It is trusty and broadcasts over longer distance, but it isn’t as vibrant or clear as PAL.
NTSC: Most American broadcasts come through the NTSC system. It has a lower resolution than the PAL system. However, color controls allow you to adjust the tint of your screen if it comes through NTSC so that it looks just as bright and vibrant as it should.

TV Types
PAL (Phase Alternation Line) offers 625 lines per second to produce a very detailed image on a wider luminance (color signal) bandwidth. The PAL system has been adopted by almost all of the world’s countries using the 50 hz (cycles) voltage.
SECAM: SECAM is one of the early attempts at color television. It is trusty and broadcasts over longer distance, but it isn’t as vibrant or clear as PAL.
NTSC (National Television Standard Committee), the American broadcast frequency, offers 525 lines per second to produce an image with a faster frame rate, which reduces visible flickering and picture noise.

Voltage Power Worldwide: 110 or 220 Volts
