OLED and Plasma lovers go on and on about it like it's the best thing since sliced bread, but it's just one aspect of picture quality. LED TVs have other advantages over both of those technologies. I don't know who in their right mind would pay 6x as much just to get a better contrast ratio and deeper blacks. It seems crazy to me.
It's not crazy, and if OLEDs and LEDs were the same price we'd all have OLEDs.
They can perform perfect black, perfect white, and are perfectly uniform because each pixel is individually lit, and can be fully dark. They also use less power, have far wider viewing angles, and faster response times.
I don't know of any LED advantages other than price, panel life, and resistance to burn in.
I'm just glad LED TVs are a lot better so I don't have to spend $5K on a tv.
