Also known as: 薄型テレビ, 液晶テレビ
A Television with a thickness usually under 10 cm (~4 in.). This is opposed to cathode-ray tube televisions or rear-projection televisions whose designs required rather thick housing.
This tag is specifically for flat-panel TVs, which the term "flat-screen TV" is used interchangeably with today. It should not be used for rear-projection TVs or flat-screen cathode-ray tube TVs, which were particularly common before LCD and similar technologies become the dominate technology used for televisions.
