What is the difference between 120 and 240 Hz?

    This refers to the refresh rate of the television. The higher the Hz on the refresh rate the more times per second the picture refreshes. When a television has scenes with a lot of motion the picture can be blurry. A higher refresh rate can compensate for this. Picture blur is more a problem with LCD/LED technology than plasma technology. Plasma flatscreen televisions can have more than a 600 HZ sub field drive. The higher the refresh rate the better the flatscreen TV will perform with motion scenes.
