LG 47 inch TV only consumes 28 Watt

The Korean giant LG presents a 47 inch TV that consumes very little energy...

LG has unveiled a prototype LCD panel for energy efficient televisions. This 47-inch solution leverages a particular light-emitting diode backlight. LG has reduced dramatically the amount of LEDs used, allowing this LCD panel to consume 28 Watts only!

The brightness is 400 cd/m², according to LG would be sufficient for a Full this diagonal HD television. The bezel of the TV shows a thickness of 8.5 mm. Beyond the aesthetics, it also reduces manufacturing costs. LG did not specify when he planned to market this new technology.

Toshiba 46UL875G: Great LED TV without 3D

Toshiba dispensed 3D at the 46UL875G

Otherwise, everything is in there in the Toshiba 46UL875G what makes a good TV. Since also the image quality is true, the TV loose conquered one of the front seats in the Hall of Fame.

Toshiba 46UL875G potter in total four tuners: you can receive television via analog and digital cable (DVB-C), digital satellite (DVB-S (2)) or a digital TV antenna (DVB-T). The image of "normal" resolution TV channels (standard definition, SD) liked us very well in the test. Toshiba's own image enhancement technology, "Resolution +" to ensure success for a sharpening of important details: motion blur of stay, edges are crisp and colorful, nice picture.

Even the image of the HD tuner, there is no reason to complain: it works in 720p and 1080i resolution also sharp and detailed. Despite an occasional, slight smoke pixels in homogeneous areas of the total TV delivers excellent HD picture quality.

Toshiba 46UL875G: Great LED TV but without 3D

Great detail, much overscan
The coloration of the DVD picture is very good with lots of details, even if a light irradiation (Clouding) Edge LED backlight in darker sequences a little disturbing. Also worthy of criticism clearly recognizable overscan. Here, the TV increases the frame-filling image, but cuts it generously on the edges. "Super Live" and "widescreen" but the Toshiba has different formats, but when swallowed both about the same area. This problem occurs with Blu-ray discs do not like it he is one to one dar. But as the drawing by a little less good than for the display of DVD movies. Overall, the Toshiba 46UL875G LED TV renders Blu-rays very well.

Good sound, Settings for image professionals
The Toshiba 46UL875G sounds like a total beautifully clean. However he begins to echo something, before he is really loud.

The OSD of TV offers many setting possibilities, especially for image adjustment and optimization. The menu is this however quite nested and confusing. The remote control is in the hand and is clearly designed, only the tax "Ring" with eight keys resulted in the test repeatedly operating errors.

User-recognition and Internet
An integrated camera, the TV detects movements and different users. You can store four personal profiles with individual picture and sound settings, as well as personal channel list. The television then record the user from a camera and activates the appropriate profile.

Thanks to two USB jacks, you can record broadcasts from the DVB tuners on a storage medium. In addition, the TV plays from all popular multimedia formats from external stores. Over the network (DLNA) of the television shows slightly less willing to format: he plays only movies in the MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 format as well as MP3s and photos on the home network. Speaking, network - connected with the Internet, you have to access content from the Web. But only by means of widgets, a browser is missing.

Conclusion
The Toshiba 46UL875G provides a great and sharp picture that visible benefits from the resolution + images by channels in the SD format in the test. Also broadcasts in 720p and 1080i resolution and convincing picture of the DVD and Blu-ray discs is beautifully detailed, very good detail in dark sequences. To do this there practical equipment features - only 3D is missing.

Alternative
The Sony KDL-46EX725 also offers 46-inch screen size, but a little cheaper than the Toshiba TV has around 1,200 euros. Also, it supports the playback of 3D content in good quality, it produces hardly disturbing double contours (ghosting). But even in 2D, the Sony makes a good figure. If SD or HD TV via the four tuners, DVD or Blu-ray disc: the image has a colourful and sharp.

Samsung UE46D8090

Samsung UE46D8090 Nice picture, Powerful sound, Super facilities

Little brother of TV test winner: the Samsung UE46D8090 offers the same facilities as the current number one, but a nine inch smaller picture. This does not detract from the quality, as demonstrated by the UE46D8090 in the test. In the 3D-rendering, Samsung UE46D8090, equipped with shutter technology shows pleasant a few double contours: the measured value of crosstalk was very low 1.5 per cent.
Colors have on a minimal yellow stitch in 3D, which is hardly noticeable and easily regulate itself on the image settings can be. The brightness contrast decreases in the 3D, also - typical for the use of shutter glasses. Both values remain within an acceptable range.

Overall very good picture
The Samsung UE46D8090 offers four TV tuners:Analog and Digital Cable (DVB-C), antennas for digital TV and digital satellite receiver DVB-S (2). The picture of SD channels looks pretty sharp and colorful, though. However, continue to show slight motion blur, the total impact has not yet particularly disturbing. Better to propose to the TV with HD channels in 720p and 1080i: Everything appears nice and sharp and without interference.

Samsung UE46D8090: Prima LED TV with many features.

The picture of DVDs and Blu-ray Disc also convinced with carved representation and natural colors. The coloration of dark scenes the Samsung succeeds very well with many details. However, the Edge-illuminated LED backlighting of the display into dark images (Clouding).

Great Sound, Rich Features
Despite the shallowness of TV, he produced a decent tone, both low and high frequencies well above room volume only start to roar on.

Samsung UE46D8090: Very uneven illumination.

For equipment and operation of the Samsung UE46D8090 corresponds one to one the 55-inch model UE55D8090 - our latest winner. All information can be found in the review of the Samsung UE55D8090 The power consumption of UE46D8090 is appropriate in settings with around 89 watts for the screen size. The built in light sensor helps in saving much without the picture it is too dark: 165 candelas per square meter in just 58.2 watts consumption are great.

Conclusion
The Samsung UE46D8090 provides a good test in 3D image quality image from a few mistakes - the total crosstalk remains comfortably low. Also, the 2D image we liked well overall. HD channels of TV shows beautifully sharp and accurate, as content for DVD and Blu-ray Disc. With the equipment, the Samsung has to offer: In addition to four tuners (analog cable DVB-T/-C (2)) and four HDMI 1.4 ports, he brings a multimedia player, the content of external USB storage media, can play from the network and the Internet. Alternative The Panasonic TX-P50VT30E for around 1,700 euros is a good plasma TV with great picture in 2D and 3D. When equipped Panasonic also makes no half measures - many interfaces, a great media player, a good remote control and four tuners mean second place in the ranking in this category. Only the power consumption in normal operation with 174 watts is significantly higher than the Samsung LED TV.

Hannspree SV32LMNB

Hannspree SV32LMNB (32-inch LED-TV)

Hannspree SV32LMNB sets for his 32-inch displays backlighting on edge-LED backlight. Is the full HD TV at an unbelievable price of 300 euros - and convincing in the test with great picture and rich sound. The Hannspree is ideally equipped for TV reception: an analog and a digital (DVB-C) are on board cable tuner and a tuner for DVB-T. Also receive HD channels and a CI + support the two DVB-tuner-slot allows the decryption of Pay-TV (sky) and basic verschlüsseltem CATV (cable Germany and UnityMedia).


Great TV image
What the TV from the tuners showed in the test, liked it very well: the lawn at a football game played while easily mushy, but the edges are sharp and motion artifacts in the form of double outlines or halos are almost imperceptible. A lightweight, bright areas to determine but typical pixel noise - was a total but not annoying for 720 p channels via DVB-C. Edges and marquee are pretty sharp, really nice look at the image entirely.


Weaknesses in DVD, strong Blu-ray disc
The image of DVDs convinces in test also - it is sharp and colorful. Only in dark image sequences of the television when it is displayed having a hard time: the detail is weak and the typically something through eating LED-backlit over stahlt at the Hannspree the image in the corners. With movies from Blu-ray disc the detail is essential better as in DVD material - here the image like a total back very well.

Hannspree SV32LMNB: Inexpensive LED TV with great image quality.

Powerful sound, good remote control, rudimentary menus
Is the sound of the Hansspree TV is loud and strong. The Hannspree body begins to echo if you reach the device on maximum volume only slightly. The remote but not too high-quality impression, but good in the hand and is extremely open. The operation on the TV set itself is theoretically feasible via backlit sensor buttons - however the buttons respond pretty slow, which quite annoying in the long run. The menus of the Hannspree TV are therefore very spartan compared to other manufacturers - but there are the most important settings. However, the menu covered most of the image, making it something difficult setting, for example, image parameters.


Simple facilities, moderate power consumption
The remaining facilities of Hannspree SV32LMNB is appropriate for the price: three times HDMI, SCART twice and the above mentioned tuners. This network or Internet features are not there. After all: About a USB interface and a built-in Media Player you can play many video, music and photo formats on the Hannspree TV. Annoying: The lighting of the Hannspree logo can not switch itself off, what bothers extremely dark movies. Hannspree told us to do so upon request, that may be a firmware update for the model to follow, which then allows the switch-off. Thanks to LED backlight, the Hannspree has a low power consumption: 80 watts are great in normal operation when a 32-incher already. And if you switch the TV to the eco-mode, he draws only even 40 watts from the outlet.

Leaked backlight: ago all in dark scenes shone it annoyingly in the image.

Conclusion
Hannspree SV32LMNB shows a great image of his three tuners and Blu-ray discs in the test. DVDs the above-average highly translucent LED backlight is uncomfortable noticeable but. The facilities of the TV is in keeping with the price and also remote control and sound do not disappoint. For 300 euros, the Hannspree is a real bargain and earned our buy recommendation. Alternative The Hanspree SJ32DMBB with classical CCFL Backlight also offers a very good image quality at the spar price and is this even still 10 euros cheaper. The 32 incher comes with full HD resolution, three TV tuners and a CI slot, however need to screw your claims in the remaining facilities and the sound quality here.

Test: Sharp LC-46LE925E (46-inch LCD-TV)

With four colors in 3D

The Quattron TVs from Sharp use yet a fourth in yellow for better color reproduction in addition to the usual sub pixels in red, green and blue. It's now also available with 3D - so well that the Sharp LC-46LE925E in dimension three sets a new record.

3D content from a 3D-Blu-ray-Disc-Player represents the Sharp in the test almost error-free. Thus he depends loosely the LCD competition of Samsung and Sony. The 3D performance of the four-color TV with good three-dimensional picture of the plasma 3D TVs from Panasonic is similar with the only occasionally occurring, light double contours (ghosting). However, the 3D image in the Sharp lights significantly brighter than when the 3D plasma - here the Quattron equipped with edge LED backlighting has clear front the nose. Also the processing and the wearability of shutter glasses convince on all along the line. A pair of glasses bundles Sharp with the TV, more are optional at an additional cost (about 110 euros). Liked us has also the compelling 2D/3D-Konvertierung, where even manually to change how much the 3D effect should be pronounced.

Great image from all sources

Sharp LC-46LE925E: Best 3D-Wiedergabe and four sub pixels

Not only the three-dimensional image of the Sharp TV is in the test very well. As also what he brings in 2D with a refresh rate of 200 Hz on the screen, and is class. No matter if SD or HD: up to a very light pixel noise in moving scenes of the television shows an excellent TV image of its tuners (analog and digital cable (DVB-C) as well as DVB-T) with great colours and a nice Sharp contours. Also deserves the excellent image of the DVD. Here that makes positive yellow sub-pixels in the overtones are noticeable (see below). Up on the average only detail in dark scenes, the Quattron also of Blu-ray Disc offers a top image with deep black and brilliant colors.

In image quality the technical peculiarity pays off in general the Sharp Quattron series: instead of the usual RGB pixel (red, green, blue) Additionally, the color is yellow. To realize the fourth subpixel, shared the Sharp Ingeneuere the Green subpixel in two parts and colored yellow one half. In practice, the advantages are: the measurable extended color space can be appear clear brilliant colors, without they exaggerated or over-subscribed work. You notice this not only in yellow lots, but also in red and green tones. The TV shows more realistic even skin tones as competitors with three subpixels.

Powerful sound, network player
The Sharp TV provides also the appropriate tone to the top screen. Thanks to a built-in 15-watt subwoofer, the bass is fed up and the TV will be really loud. However begins to echo If you fully turn on the sound the TV cabinet - but this is no different for the competitors.

The side arrangement of interfaces like us, because the jacks are easy to reach when wall mounting. In addition to four HDMI ports and a USB interface find a combined VGA / component signal input, and a network interface. The latter or the also included WLAN stick bring the TV in the network and play there the media files. While he is confined to standard formats such as DivX, MP3 and JPEG, he takes place optionally from USB media.

Fine TV design, Confusing nested Menu

Sharp menus: Nested operation on reflective display.

The design of Sharp TVs reminds us of a too big stricken Apple iOS. The rounded corners and transparent elements looks very chic. The highly reflective front window is less beautiful: candles on the coffee table are thus taboo. At the remote high-quality-looking design not continues. Rather, it is mass products with many buttons and a quite colorful label. The confusing and nested menu of Sharp TVs not convinced us. Especially as cryptic work the names of the functions. In addition it is blinded over the current image - because the setting is no joy.

Conclusion
The Sharp LC-46LE925E Quattron is the new 3D-King-disruptive double contours are similar to low like in the good plasma 3D TVs and in the brightness of the image, the Sharp beats them to lengths. But not only in the three-dimensional image convinced the Sharp, with him, also TV in 2D is consistently fun. This great design, a powerful sound, network functionality and well-placed interfaces occur. Only the remote control and the menu elicit us no cries of jubilation - the latter is due simply to unaufgeräumt and cumbersome. And at a price of 2,400 euros, Sharp would have may include materials quietly also second shutter glasses.

Alternative
If you not reach 46 inch, then Sony's KDL-52LX905 offers for around 3,500 euros with powerful 52 inch diagonal 3D in XXL. Its completed the 3D-playback although compared to many other TVs fairly decent, against the Sharp 3D Quattron lose out but here. But in normal (2d) TV, DVD and Blu-ray Disc content the Sony device in the test like with very good image. And the sound quality and equipped with interfaces and tuners leaves nothing to be desired.

Review: Sony KDL-46EX725 (46-inch LCD-TV)

Much image quality, little current

Despite full screen size of 117 cm, the Sony KDL-46EX725 TV needs only economical 80 watts - the image quality of 3D-Edge-LED-TVs in no way suffering from the current stinginess.
In the TV mode you can also choose here: in the Sony TV receiver for analog cable, as well as DVB-T, - C, and integrated s2. Which shows the TV so we liked both in SD and HD quality very well: there is motion blur in the test not to fault, the image is sharp, detail and colorful.

Movies from DVD, the KDL 46EX725 also shows a good to very good detail, are still very many details in dark scenes. And when material from Blu-ray disc he convinces also with a top picture, the detail is here even more times better than from DVD.

Little image in 3D
The 3D-Bildqualität of the Sony TV is great and is evident absolutely: the measured crosstalk is constant at just over one percent - a pleasant low- and very good value. However a visible flicker was in the test, which occurs particularly in homogeneous areas. The color fidelity of 3D-Bildes is good, the brightness is reduced shutter typical, stands out but adequate.

Something hard, but a total comfortably.

The pretty clunky and hard-looking 3D glasses sit unexpectedly comfortably and safely on the nose. The perspective is somewhat restricted, especially for lateral head tilt, there are hardly any tolerances - in the "to die shoulder des or the sweetheart sit" not it in the 3D-Gucken. As in Sony's TV middle-class are common, also contain no 3D glasses included - you must buy it for around 50 euros each (TDG-BR250).

Powerful sound, picky Media Player
The Sony TV offers extensive setting options - for the sound but also without that you create hand on the sound, the TV reflects a good sound with proper bass. However, the housing for frequencies begins rather quick to echo on. In high frequency areas, the phenomenon occurs much later.

The remote control is the Sony standard with two concentric rings of key and very small pushbuttons, is however quite clearly.

Sony KDL-46EX725: LED TV with great image in 2D and 3D.

The USB interface allows you to record, that the TV must format previously however broadcasts by the DVB channels on external storage media. In addition, the integrated media player plays from also multimedia files from a USB storage. The selection of the media formats supported is however straightforward: it did work in the test, for example, only video-files of the varieties of DivX, XviD, MPEG-2, but no high resolution MKVs.

The same applies to media from your home network (DLNA) connects with the TV set via the LAN port. In addition, the Sony TV offers an open Internet browser that pretty quickly responded, but does not support Flash or Java-videos. Also libraries, YouTube and other video offers in Foprm of apps and widgets can be called in. For all social media fans, even Facebook and Twitter are preinstalled.

Green TV
Back to the already mentioned economical power consumption: emblazoned on the TV a label of the energy efficiency class A, and it creates a very low fuel consumption with 80 watts during normal operation in the test actually. If you switch the light sensor, required the device even just over 50 watt - and that at an always still absolutely sufficient brightness of the display (107 candela per square meter).


Conclusion
The Sony KDL-46EX725 offered a very good image quality in the test. No matter whether in SD or HD via his four tuner, DVD, or Blu-ray disc: the picture is colourful and beautifully sharp. And also the so is good – we found disturbing double contours (ghosting) very little. And nice sparingly with the power of LED TV is about even.

Alternative
The Sharp Quattron LC-46LE925E for approximately 1,450 euros is also a great 3D TV - double contours fall out similarly low as with Sony and flickering there not to criticism here. But not only in the three-dimensional image convinced the sharp, with him, also TV in 2D is consistently fun. This great design, a powerful sound, network functionality and well-placed interfaces occur.

Samsung UE40D7090, Sharp LED TV with full equipment

Number one in the Hall of Fame for the Samsung UE40D7090

Samsung UE40D7090, Sharp LED TV with full equipment

The Samsung UE40D7090 LED TV secures the leading position in the 40-inch TVs - test deserves not only because its top facilities, but especially thanks to its excellent image quality in 2D and 3D.

Samsung uses the new D-series TV Bluetooth for the connection of 3D-TV and shutter glasses. This technical innovation pays off: when the UE40D7090 ghosting/crosstalk occurs when 3D content in the test is very rarely. And if, then, only very slight double contours show. In our measurements the variation was only 3 percent of cold and a percent according to a running time of over an hour - great values that reach almost plasma 3D level. Supplied with the TV shutter glasses is one in which quite comfortable sitting on the nose.

Great 2D image
The overwhelmingly positive view 3D impression continues seamlessly with the 2D content. The image of the four installed tuners (analog cable, DVB-T/-C (2)) makes a very good impression. Motion blur, it is hardly complain now and again is very slight halos show particularly brisk in pans. The image presents itself also nice and sharp and colorful. The three dominate DVB tuner and HD channels - here, we like the picture quality, without limitation, very good.

The coloration of dark sequences in material from the external player succeeds UE40D7090 also excellent: It can be seen a lot of detail, color stains, however, looking in vain. Even otherwise the LED TV features with content from DVD or Blu-ray Disc no attack: The picture looks very sharp and stands out with great colors and clean presentation of movement.

Good contrast, some quiet

Relatively uniform display illumination: when bright images.

The measurements of the static image measurements are equally impressive. The chessboard with 221:1 contrast is made ​​extremely well. The illumination of the display is for an Edge LED device in order, especially bright images look very smooth. Good: For dark images enters the Edge LED usual "Clouding" only in small sizes. For this you can safely use the TV as a makeup mirror: The front display is reflected very strongly, so you should avoid light sources on the coffee table or behind the sofa.

The Samsung UE40D7090 features five sound presets. In addition, you can make in the menu individually various audio settings. However, the TV is a total of not particularly loud, and at almost maximum volume the sound starts to roar too.

Everything inside, everything
When the LED TVs in the D7090 series, the manufacturer is not stingy, but stock response: Four-time HDMI, LAN, WLAN, CI + USB 2.0 and three times are available. The Scart sockets (two pieces), Component and Composite connectors are connected via an adapter - that supports the flat construction.

The "OK" button on the remote control serves as a mini-touchpad, which allows you to control the mouse pointer in the browser. Actually a clever idea, but implementation convinced us not: In the test, the operation was often wrong.

The built-in network media players and USB support besides the usual formats, high definition video in MKV container with DTS sound (only via USB). You can use USB media with NTFS file system and look at all the movies in this format memory-eating on television. Next, the Samsung UE40D7090 waiting on a full-featured Internet browser with Flash support. Rounding out the comprehensive Ausstatttung through various internet apps such as YouTube, news, etc., can be reloaded from an App Store.

Conclusion
Samsung's UE40D7090 is a decent number of one of our TV Hall of Fame: he shows a great image in 2D and 3D and features a comprehensive equipment with many tuners and sufficient interfaces. The equipment dance is crowned by a very good built-in Media Player Network and USB. About 1,400 euros for the leader are however pretty happig.

Alternative
The LG Electronics 42LW650S for approximately 1,250 euro creates the 3D image using polarization - and that is evident quite. The pole used glasses have several advantages over the shutter counterparts: your weight increases wearing comfort, they are relatively inexpensive to purchase and they swallow not as much light as the shutter glasses. For the vertical resolution in the 3D image to half that reduce when the polarization. That was annoying on in the test but only with some 3D-Blu-ray-Disc. The 2D image of the LG TV was in the test very well.

LED-TV: The best TV with LED Backlight

Best of LED TV

Your new TV should be "State of the Art", finally you not every day buys a new TV. Our advice: Grab it best to a LED TV - pack because in these models, the manufacturer in addition to the small light all the latest technology highlights.

LED is the magic word when it comes to the latest TV technology. As demonstrated by our tests, this variety of LCD TV that is a clear advantage: The backlight with LED diodes (instead of CCFL tubes like normal LCD TVs) provides for darker black levels and a higher contrast ratio - including better checkerboard contrast, what is pays off especially in fast motion in the picture. A positive side effect of LED technology is also a lower energy consumption.

Full-LED backlight, Edge LED
Not all LED TV LED TV is same: Current models have either a Egde or a full-LED backlight. With Edge LED TVs are the LEDs around the edge of the television screen distributed, where the light is transported via a circuit board behind the display. This gives a very flat design, so that the device is only a few millimeters thick. For the full-or direct-LED technology, the LEDs are not laterally, but attached directly behind the display in groups, which are also separately on and off (local dimming).

The best LED TVs at a glance
We have tested all of our LED TVs divided into six categories and present you with the best equipment in the display sizes of 32 to 37 inches, 40 to 42 inches and larger than 42 inches. How to find itself at a glance once the absolute LED TV highlights: those recommended models that offer the best picture quality, the best 3D image and the best equipment extras. And also the best LED TV deal, the best LED energy saver and the coolest LED television. All units along with the rating you will find an overview in the photo gallery.

The best TV with LED backlight

The LED TV with the best image quality

The Supreme discipline in television devices: the image. Here, everything must be right - sharpness, color, clean movements, strong contrast and high attention to detail are only some parameters that make up a great image.

32/37-Inch: Samsung UE32C6200

The Samsung UE32C6200 is a chic TV with edge LED technology, completely convinced us in the test. The image quality is unparalleled in this display size – be it from the four tuners, an external to player or the integrated media player for USB and network.

40/42-Inch: Samsung UE40C8790XS

Samsung's LED Edge-TV offers a nearly perfect image - especially in 2D. Both of the tuners (analog cable, DVB-T/C/S2) and external playback devices in the test, there was nothing to complain about. The coloration is darker scenes, but also very good, however, shines here in the dark corners Edge LED backlight a little pure and the 3D rendering shows this model quite distinct halos. Despite the very thin case, the sound is surprisingly powerful and trouble-free almost to the maximum volume.
Price: 1.800 EUR

Larger 42-inch: Sharp LC-46LE820E

Better image thanks to four colours technology: each pixel of an LCD TV consists usually of three sub pixels in the colours red, green and blue (RGB) - sharp engineers have halved and a half of the Green subpixels yellow coloured. Due to this four sub-pixel and an edge LED backlit, the cheap Sharp AQUOS LC-46LE820E offers an excellent image with particularly rich colors. The TV represents everything beautifully sharp, very rich in contrast and without motion blur. The sound is however no strength of TV, because the body starts to scheppern at low frequencies at higher volume.
Price: 900 EUR

Deep: The LED TV with the best 3D image

3D rendering is actually the domain of plasma TVs, but the current LED TVs are powerful catching up in the spatial representation. Here the three best 3D from the LED camp.

32/37-Inch: Panasonic TX-L32DT30E

Originally, the TV manufacturers had announced to want to send not 3D-TV below the 40-inch limit in the race. But Panasonic care and now offers a 32-inch LED TV, which makes good 3D with the TX-L32DT30E. Still completely cold Panel directly after power-on is the typical 3D-TV with dual images (ghosting / crosstalk) only at about 2 percent - this suggests even the expensive high-end models of Samsung like about the UE55D8090 of the small Japanese and makes the plasma TVs from the in-house competition. After about two hours of running time, we have seen then almost certainly no cross talk. So, also in the 32-inch 3D fun.
Price: 950 EUR

40/42-Inch: Samsung UE40D7090

Samsung relies on Bluetooth for the connection of 3D-TV and shutter glasses since the beginning of this year and with the introduction of its D-series TV. And this technical innovation is evident absolutely: the 40-inch LED TV UE40D7090 shows when 3D content is very rarely ghosting / crosstalk and if, then only with very light double contours. We have measured a deviation of only 3 per cent of cold and of about one percent after a running time of over an hour here in the test lab - that's super.
Price: 1300 EUR

Larger 42-inch: Samsung UE55D8090

The refresh rate of the 55 inch TV with edge-LED backlight is located at 800 Hz - this this 800 frames per second are composed of 400 real and 400 black images, which are achieved by switching off the backlight after each image. The active shutter glasses join also in this model via Bluetooth with the TV, which is to allow a more stable connection. And actually the 3D image in the test: from crosstalk (electronics), the so-called "ghost images" caused, almost no trace. Brightness and contrast, take off as usual in the 3D mode, but they remain in relation to the competition at a very good level.
Price: 2,900 EUR

Inexpensive: The LED TV with the best price

You will get a price-performance-winner with LED backlight from 400 euro. And not only the price is right at this low tech enjoy, because also the image of the LED bargain offer no reason for the lawsuit.

Also, the coloration of dark scenes on DVD or Blu-ray Disc impressed us with many details in the test. The tone is strong, the housing starts but beyond the room volume to roar. Otherwise the Philips LED Edge-TV has no special equipment features - there is no 3D rendering, network or Internet features it.
Price: 600 EUR

Larger 42-inch: LG 47LX9500
