LG Full LED LCD TVs

LG releases an LCD with 3360 LEDs.

The new screens are available in 55" sizes, have a dynamic contrast of 5,000,000:1 through the use of local LED dimming and also feature support for 240Hz screen refresh. There's also support for content streaming via an uncompressed wireless data technology.

Local LED dimming is a major feature from new television screens due mainly to the high dynamic contrast ratio that becomes available with this technology. Proper implementation will be necessary for it to become a must in LCD TVs, as most dynamic contrast implementations in LCD TVs still leave a lot to wish for. The technology is very promising but has been having a tough time to reach mass production since it was announced a couple of years ago. Coupled with S-IPS panels, that are used on quality LCD TVs, both technologies deliver a very interesting image quality that most people assumed was years away only to come on OLED based screens.

Prices are steep, as is all new technology, at around $5,500.
