Hi there. Thank you for your question. Edge-lit TV screens, like the one in the LG model 43UR9000PUA, have LEDs placed along the edges of the screen, offering several advantages. They allow for a thinner and more lightweight TV design, making them easier to mount on walls and fit into various spaces. Additionally, edge-lit screens tend to use less power, contributing to energy savings, and they often come at a lower cost compared to full-array back-lit screens, making them an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers. While back-lit screens generally provide superior brightness and contrast due to better control of lighting across the screen, edge-lit screens can still offer good overall brightness and image quality for general viewing purposes. The choice between edge-lit and back-lit screens ultimately depends on your preferences and viewing needs. If you prioritize image quality and are willing to invest more, back-lit screens might be the better option. For a sleek, energy-efficient, and cost-effective solution, edge-lit screens are a good choice.
