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"

Here are the latest best selling TVs sold by Digital Direct last week (I get an email from them with the details).
Two nice Sony's on the list. Not surprising really the sound quality on the Sony LCD TVs is superb and normally is what tips people to choose a Bravia over something with similar spec from other TV manufacturers.

Best Price on Samsung LE40A856

Deal of the day comes from A J electronics . . . . .


What you get is the beautiful and high spec Samsung LE40A856

& free fast delivery

& a 2 year warranty

Currently £799.99

To give you an idea how good a deal this is, Amazon who are 9 times out of 10 cheapest have the same TV for £919, John Lewis have it for £1299 and Pixmania for £949.

I had a comprehensive dig round for an AJ electronics promotional code to make it even cheaper but alas there isn't one. I was even cheeky enough to give them a ring and they only have the promotional code box at the checkout for specific items and this one is already discounted "to the max" (quote).

LG 42LH4000 TV

Just been looking at the LG 42LH4000 a 42" Full HD LCD TV

A great looking and impressive 100hz TV for under £700 (at www.electricalexperience.co.uk who also have free delivery)
