LED TV

August 29th, 2009

LED TVs are the newest technology in HDTV. LED High Definition Televisions use LED backlights replacing the standard Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps used in most LCD televisions. The display is still a conventional LCD but changing the back light.

Without this backlight the image on a LCD display would produce little or no light of its own. The LEDs are placed along the outer edge of the LCD, projecting the light inwards without adding to the width of the screen. A light source on the outer rim of the TV makes it possible to regain space normally taken up by fluorescent light rods.

This technology enables the manufacturers to build thinner TV’s which can be less than two inches thick. Another …

Sony has further enhanced the picture quality of its new range of LCD TV’s by using Tri-colour LED backlighting technology called RGB Dynamic LED.

This is the next step up from using the conventional LED lighting which is white light.  The reason this is so exciting is because it creates more colours and increased depth in the picture which gives you the most natural images on screen.

The design of the Bravia XBR Series is slim and stylish and although the RGB LED technology used is not quite as thin as the LED Edge backlight technology used in the Sony ZX1 series, the XBR series makes up for the slightly extra width with it’s fantastic colour and depth of picture.

Amazingly, Samsung has recently launched a new breed of television species with Samsung LED Full HD Tvs B7000 and B6000 as front liners in the Australian market.

LED stands for Light Emitting Diodes which is used in series in these two new Samsung LED TV models as its primary light source compared to the more traditional cold cathode fluorescent lamps of CCFLs in order to attain that ultra-high contrast ratios with slimmer depths and a higher energy saving power.

CCFLs fade in comparison to the Samsung LED TV because LEDs produce darker blacks which can appear endlessly deep to a viewer’s eye while the shades of white appear as crisp and bright against …

Samsung has it, Sony has it and so does Panasonic, Sharp and all the other top brands in the market. But what is it exactly that people are so excited about in this so-called “latest technology”? What is the difference between the LED television and the LCD TV? This is the part where knowledge truly is power and before you spend that hard-earned cash, you first need to know what is in store for you.

There is actually no difference between a LED TV and an LCD TV screen, but the LED TV has been updated with LED technology. Fluorescent tubes are used in the more traditional LCD televisions where the color …

It seems the UK’s Advertising Standards Authority are not impressed with the way Samsung has been using the term LED TV’s in thier TV and print advertising campaigns. By promoting the LED backlit television as a new technology that is the way of the future, the Advertising Standards Authority say that they are misleading the public as they are still LCD televisions.

Apparently, using the term “LED TV” breaches 2 of the UK’s advertising codes and as such “the ads must not appear again in their current form.” Sony and LG  advertise that there TV’s are LED edge lit and so have not run afoul of the advertising code.

This of course does not change …
