LED , the super thin TVs is gaining momentum and seems to be this years Black Friday hot selling items list. LED TVs are nothing but LCD + backlight instead of typical CCFL lighting. The real LED TVs are OLEDs (organic LEDs). OLEDs are very expensive with small screen sizes like 11″ (Sony XEL-1 cost about $2000).
The LED deals that we see are actually LED LCD TVs. LEDs are two types – edge-lit LCD or Back-Lit LCDs.
In Edge-lit scenes that are darker makes the entire TV screen go dark.
The back-lit type is local dimming, which is supposed to result in a better picture. More expensive. Environment friendly as they don’t have mercury.
