Check Out The LED Television Reviews

By John Leonard

As with any new technology, it is important to do some research before you buy an LED TV. LED television reviews will tell you the good, the bad and the ugly about LED TV. By reading these LED television reviews, you may decide that you want to go ahead with your purchase or to go in a different direction. Good reviews are a key to being satisfied with your purchase.

LCD televisions were nice for what they offered. The have a relatively flat screen and can hang on a wall so they take up very little floor space. The pictures are good, although they cannot rival the plasma television.

The back lighting source was the main problem with LCD televisions. LCD televisions were back lit with fluorescent tubes. Those tubes begin to lose their brightness after a few years. The lack of brightness means that pictures loose quality. There is no provision for replacing the tubes so the entire set needs replacement every three to four years. Additionally, fluorescent light is poor light for the many colors needed by television.

Enter the LED television. The only technological difference between an LED and an LCD television is the source of back lighting. The newer LED sets are back lit with LED lights. These are the same lights that have become popular in Christmas lights, flashlights and now for home use. LED lights have a very long life (home lamps are said to last for as long as twenty years) and produce a high quality white light. They do not have the color gaps that florescent lamps have. When added to a television, this literally means that the set can now show every color of the rainbow.

LED lamps consume less energy than their florescent counterparts. The lower energy usage will eventually make a difference in the total amount of energy consumed by our country.

LED televisions can be made much thinner than any other television. This will make them even more light weight and allow them to be hung on the walls of your home. They will not need a television stand that takes up room. The additional floor space may be perfect to install home theatre seating for the new set.

LED televisions allow you to have large screens without the size of projection televisions. Their clear pictures are great for football games or movies as well as regular television viewing.

Know how to read television reviews? Numerical ratings mean little without the actual reviews. See why people make the ratings that they make. Beware of people that give good ratings when they do not like a product. You can find extremely important information by reading the rating in full.

Others may give very low ratings but may have based their ratings on a poor experience with a retailer and not the actual product. Once again, it is important to know why the ratings were given. Different numerical ratings mean different things to different people.

Remember you need to actually view a product before purchase. The real opinion that will matter about a LED television review is your own. If you do not like the set, then read more reviews and check out more sets until you find the perfect one just for you. - 29872
