[QUOTE="Audio Bug, post: 86635, member: 2324"] "There is no difference in performance between an edge lit LED LCD and a traditional LCD so you'll get more bang from your buck going with a standard set. Also, edge lit LED screens tend to have uneven backlighting" - KenMasters. While I am not really in a position to dispute this claim, I did extensive viewing and research before I bought a flatscreen TV earlier this year. I bought the Samsung LED (UA7000, I think) because its picture was, in my view, considerably better than the (CCFL) LCDs on offer at the time. The price was steep (about R35k), but dark scenes are much blacker than LCDs, colours are more vivid and I have had no problems with uneven backlighting. A three-year guarantee and lower electricity consumption sealed the deal for me. Finally, given the LED TV's thin dimensions, they are great for mounting on a wall. [/QUOTE]
