How to shop for LED TVs
LED TVs use a backlight behind the screen (unlike OLED TVs, which have self-illuminating pixels). The backlight makes LED TVs brighter, so they're a great choice for rooms with a lot of ambient light.
There are three main LED backlight configurations to choose from: direct-lit, edge-lit, and full-array. Full-array is the most advanced type of LED backlight, and offers the best overall picture quality. Mini LEDs are the latest subset of full-array backlights. They use smaller, more densely packed LED lights for an even brighter image and more precise lighting.
To learn more about the different kinds of LED backlights, read our article on OLED vs. LED TVs .
In addition to backlight types, there are a few other features to consider when shopping for an LED TV. Read our TV buying guide to get started.

There are two main types of TVs, LED and OLED. LED TVs use a backlight behind the screen. That makes them brighter, so they're a good choice for rooms with a lot of sunlight. OLED TVs don't need a backlight because their pixels are self-lighting. Their superior picture contrast and black levels make them look amazing.
When it comes to TV screen size, "bigger is better" is a good rule of thumb. Viewing distance plays an important role. You want your TV to be big enough so you don't miss out on any picture details from where you're sitting.
Smart TVs have Wi-Fi and built-in apps for streaming movies and TV shows directly from subscription services like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Hulu. Most smart TVs also have built-in support for Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control.
A 4K TV will let you take full advantage of the great-looking 4K streaming content available through popular streaming services. 4K TVs support HDR (High Dynamic Range), which boosts contrast and color for a more lifelike picture. They can also upscale non-4K video content for the best possible picture.
Mounting your TV involves locating and drilling into wall studs and using basic tools like a socket wrench and bubble level. It's a good idea to have a friend or partner on hand to help with parts of the job. Our DIY guide contains a video that should help you decide whether you're up to the task.
