LED Televisions, Picture Perfection For Your Eyes

By Silvester Smith

If you're shopping for high definition televisions, then you will repeatedly come across something called LED television. LED televisions have become very popular and are experiencing great success in electrical market. The attraction of consumers towards the LED TV is due to the improvements in picture quality. Watching your favourite programs on high definition LED televisions is a feeling that you should experience.

Previous televisions now seem inferior in colour reproduction, contrast and smoothness of images when compared with the advancements in this new form of TV. They display qualities that are inherent with LEDs which were not possible in the other types of technologies.

LED and LCD televisions are very similar with the exception that LED televisions use LED lights to provide the lighting to the display. The lighting method comes in two configurations for LED televisions, one is the back-lit television and another is the edge-lit television. In the back lit LED televisions the LED's are placed at the back of the screens and in the edge lit LED televisions the LED's are placed in the perimeter of the televisions.

Some adverts for LED Televisions have had to be adjusted so as not to mis-lead consumers into thinking that these new sets were so radically different to conventional LCD TVs. This is because LED TVs still utilize an LCD display which is lit using LEDs rather than fluorescent lamps, underneath they are still the same.

There are normally some negatives for any particular product. If there is one with LED televisions it is that the screen size tends to be large, in the order of 40 inches and above. They feature technological improvements like the back lit and edge lit LED lighting which makes them superior in other aspects when compared to older TVs.

Purchasing LED TVs with their improved range of color and quality is reflected in the cost of the television. People are buying LED TVs in spite of its high cost only because of the intensity in the picture quality it gives them when watching an action film, BluRay discs or the latest games consoles. Another advantage of the LED television is that, it reduces the power consumption by almost 40 percent.

Because of the extra competition in the market between the LED, LCD and plasma televisions, users are confused with the models available making their purchasing choice difficult. A good comparison between these televisions is helpful. The LCD televisions are very good value and have a large range of sizes. Plasma and LED TVs produce better picture quality and come in larger screen sizes which is reflected in their greater costs.

The benefits of better colour, contrast, slimmer models and improved energy consumption are seen in LED televisions produced by LG, Samsung, Sony and Philips. To judge whether the improvements justify the price tag then you should take a look for yourself. - 32388
