Upgrade your home theatre to Mini-LED

The best home theatre upgrade is a new television. While TV size may be one of your biggest considerations, to choose the best TV for your home you should know a bit about the type of technology built into the latest displays. Mini-LED is one of the latest evolutions in TV technology, and there are a few good reasons why you’d want to choose a TV with Mini-LED.

What is Mini-LED TV Technology?

A traditional LCD television uses a number of LED backlights, known as light-emitting diodes, as their light source. The more LEDs used in the TV, the more control the TV will have over how bright colours are or how deep your blacks will appear on the display.

When you have a traditional LCD TV, the TV will have a backlight made up of a few hundred LED lights. The TV will have dimming zones, and those zones will control the colour and contrast of the display.

Mini-LED technology uses much smaller LED lights, and because of that your favourite TV manufacturer can pack thousands upon thousands of these Mini-LEDs into your TV. Instead of a handful of dimming zones, your TV will have hundreds, giving it the power to deliver brighter colours, deeper blacks, and improved contrast for everything you watch.

What is the difference between Mini-LED TVs, OLED, and QLED TVs?

Mini-LED and QLED, or quantum dot LED, are two technologies that exist in LED TVs. While they are both unique TV technologies, they work together to create a TV with breathtaking picture quality you may find rivals an OLED display.

A QLED TV uses Mini-LEDs as the backlight for the LCD screen. It also has a layer of light-emitting nano-particles placed between the LCD and the Mini-LED backlight. The combination of thousands of Mini-LEDs and QLED nano-particles results in a brilliant display that can produce ultra-bright colours and deep, dark blacks.

While QLED TVs produce amazing image quality, they can’t quite match the near perfect blacks you can achieve with an OLED TV. That’s because OLED, also known as organic light-emitting diodes, use millions of lights to represent every pixel on your display. You don’t need a backlight powered by Mini-LED on an OLED TV because OLED produces its own light, and that light can change colours or turn off completely. The result is the deepest black possible on a TV.

Who should choose a Mini-LED TV?

If your perfect TV has a vivid picture with true to life colour and brilliant contrast, a Mini-LED TV is a great choice. You’ll be able to choose a beautiful display in a variety of sizes, and while it comes close to OLED in picture quality, Mini-LED TVs are a more budget-friendly choice.
