An LED TV is one that is lit with LEDs (light emitting diodes). There are two types of LED TVs. One type is the Back-Lit LED TV that has LEDs in a full array that are lit across the panel back. The other type is the Edge-Lit LED TV, the one that has LEDs affixed on the four sides and edges of the panel. The back-lit models feature the local dimming technology wherein different areas of the screened picture gets brighter or darker, whereas the entire screen picture of the edge-lit models brightens or darkens. The key benefit of the edge-lit types is that manufacturers can make those ultra slim models.

Though LED TV technology in general offers only moderate viewing angles, this technology is far more efficient and better than the standard fluorescent backlighting technology. And, eventhough LED TVs come with a comparatively higher price tag, they offer top notch picture quality with optimal settings that is simply outstanding. They are also comparatively more energy efficient while weighing lesser. So, get ready for the all new revolutionary LED TVs to takeover the UK market in plenty!
