[QUOTE="guyver_dio, post: 651070, member: 106564"] There were a tonne of problems with Samsung LEDs when they first came on the market (a common issue when any company tries to be the first on the scene). But I think the technology and reliability is just like any other tv now. Don't own one myself yet but I see them all the time, the main thing I've noticed is the improvement in colour contrasts (which might give you the impression that the overall quality is better). Everything else is basically the same though. There is the bonus advantage to save power but this isn't really a big motivator for me, I didn't think my tv/monitors contributed much to my power consumption to begin with. From what I've read, LCDs and LEDs seem to be around the same ballpark as far as power consumption goes, and depending on brand, model and settings, some lcds can be lower then some leds. Certainly not as big of a leap as plasma to lcd. I don't feel the need to replace my lcd tv yet but if you're in the market for a new tv I'd say LEDs are a good way to go. [/QUOTE]
