LED TV and the difference between the different LED TVs

Gone are the days when TV could have been easily bought. Now it has become as complicated as it is to choose the right data plan for your mobile phone. Before the flat TV screens came into the market, the only consideration for buying a cathode ray tube(CRT) TV was how much space you have in your home and how much huge do you want the TV to be. Quality did matter but the most important was how many inches you could get for how much money.

When searching for the latest TVs, the same points are considered. There was always a plasma TV versus LCD Tv until LED Tv entered the market. Thought it has made its position in the market still, people are confused about what it really is. It is actually a different form of LCD Tv which uses LEDs as its light source.

All these TVs are backlit as LCD doesn’t produce the light of its own. So, for producing an image on a panel display, the pixels are backlit by some other lighting source. Currently, you’ll see CCFL technology is being used as a backlight source. This delivers good brightness, great color, and decent contrast. But there are not so great blacks. But the LED TVs which use CCFL technology, deliver much better black with greater contrast and brighter colors. Contrast is measured by the darkest lit screen area to the area which is the brightest in order to give a contrast ratio.

Spotting the difference

If you thought choosing the Tv just got easier then there are numerous LED options too available in the market. You will find the edge-lit LED and full matrix LED Tv. There is a slight difference though. But it's very important for you to see what the brands these days are using as a backlight choice preference. This is what really matters.

Is it actually an LED TV?

A true-blue LED TV is those huge screens which you usually come across in rock venues, Grand Prix events, and outdoor stadiums. These huge screens consist of thousands of LED lights which are extremely bright. As the LEDs used in these are chunky and large to be used in a TV, they are best used for light sourcing the backlight of LCD crystals. You can call it a mini version of the large screens you come across, using the same backlight and technology.
