An LED TV is an LCD TV with LED backlighting – today's most widespread and most affordable display technology. It delivers bright, clear pictures at an affordable price and is the solid all-rounder for everyday use.
Why LED
Because a good LED TV offers a lot of picture for the money. The technology is mature, bright and reliable – ideal for the living room, kitchen, bedroom or as a second set. You get a large diagonal, smart TV features and a bright picture without digging deep into your pocket.
What matters
Pay attention to brightness, the type of backlighting, the refresh rate for sport and gaming, and the operating system. If you want more contrast, take a look at Mini-LED; if you want perfect black, OLED. At HD Zürisee in Wädenswil we'll honestly tell you whether an LED TV is enough for your purpose or whether the extra cost for Mini-LED or OLED is worth it – and on request we take care of delivery, wall mounting and setup.
Who it's for – and straight talk
For price-conscious buyers, second and third sets, and anyone looking for a solid, bright picture without high demands on contrast.
Straight talk: LED is the sensible all-rounder, but when it comes to contrast and black levels it can't match Mini-LED and OLED. If deep black and cinema feeling matter to you, the extra cost is worth it. But for normal TV, news and sport in a bright room, a good LED TV is completely sufficient.
Verdict: The affordable all-rounder with a lot of picture for the money. A sensible choice for everyday use, second sets and bright rooms. If you want more contrast or perfect black, compare Mini-LED or OLED.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between LED, Mini-LED and OLED?
LED is an LCD with normal LED backlighting – affordable and bright. Mini-LED uses a great many small LEDs across many zones for more contrast and brightness. OLED lights up pixel by pixel and offers perfect black. In price, LED sits at the bottom, OLED at the top, Mini-LED in between.
Is an LED TV enough for me?
For normal TV, news, sport and the occasional film in a bright room, a good LED TV is perfectly sufficient. If you regularly watch demanding films in the dark and value deep black, you're better served with Mini-LED or OLED.
What does refresh rate mean?
The refresh rate indicates how many frames are displayed per second. A higher rate gives smoother motion for sport and fast-paced games. For normal TV it matters less – we'll point it out if it's relevant to your use.
Is the extra cost for Mini-LED or OLED worth it?
That depends on your requirements. If you want more contrast, a brighter HDR picture or perfect black for your home cinema, the extra cost is worth it. If you're after a solid, bright everyday picture at an affordable price, LED is the economical choice. We'll help you weigh it up honestly.
Do you handle delivery and mounting?
Yes. On request we deliver the TV, mount it on the wall or on furniture, connect your devices and set everything up. So your new TV is ready to use from the very first moment.
