LED Backlight technology
LED backlighting offers a number of advantages over previously employed fluorescent tube backlights, including less motion blur, improved dynamic contrast (stronger blacks and whites and a greater graduate range in between), a wider color gamut, longer lifespan, lower power consumption, and greater environmental friendliness via the elimination of mercury used in the fluorescent tubes (as well as via the lower power consumption and greater overall lifespan).
