LED TV - better than LCD ?

Update : I have now checked the Samsung LED TVs out. Yes they are amazingly thin for their screen size, the picture looked fantastic. Of course as a shop demo it was plating Madagascar on blu ray but yer, the colours were superb.


Samsung is now selling LED TV's - LED screens are also found on laptop computers so the technology has been around for a while. Apparently LED televisions can use up to 40% less electricity than LCD TVs which in turn are more energy efficient than Plasma screens. 

The revolutionary thing about the new Samsung LED TV's is the way they put the pure white light LEDs on the side of the TV next to the frame instead of at the back as in traditional units. These reflect of millions of tiny mirrors inside the TV screen.

I haven't seen one yet but apparently the viewing is sublime, they look amazing and are really slim so are the ultimate picture frame TV's just now. They range in size from 40" to 55"

Thanks for your comment.

Buying a flat screen, LCD TV can be quite confusing. There are so many opinions out there about what is most important in a TV. I am going to try and whittle out all the noise and figure out what is the best choice of LCD TV at the moment.
