I feel like it used to be size, color, and clarity meant more expensive. Now I look at a 500$ 4k TV and a 2000$ 4k TV and I don’t know what the difference is. They can both be smart TVs, be the same size, and have a lot of same advertised features, but what are the subtle unspoken mysteries that justify a huge price gap?

    • Edge-lit is just one big light, no dimming zones.

    • Direct-lit are big squares of dimmable zones in the back

    • Mini-led are small squares of dimmable zones, like Direct-lit but smaller

    • Quantum-dot Led are even smaller squares of dimmable zones that are build-into the screen
