RE: What is the difference between HD ready and Full HD TV ? nt - David Aiken 13:40:22 09/24/08 (1)
A HD ready TV has a high def screen and a standard def tuner. It accepts high def input from external sources so you can use a high def settop box or PVR to get high def TV. The screen resolution may be 720p, 768p, or 1080i or p.

A Full HD TV will have a 1080p display and include a high definition tuner so you don't need an add on tuner but you will end up getting one anyway if you use a high def PVR.

  Over here, for any screen to be considered Full HD it must have 1920 x 1080 pixels, whereas anything less (usually 1366x768, 1280x720, or 1024x768) is just HD Ready.
  
  Also, 1080p is 'full HD' but 1080i isn't.
  
  When higher resolutions come along no doubt we'll have 'Fuller HD', 'Even Fuller HD' and eventually 'FULL TO THE BRIM, CAN'T GET ANYMORE IN HD'.
  
  Best Regards,
