Hello there, Anjani. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your inquiry about your LG 55QNED85AUA TV’s backlighting: although it’s labeled MiniLED, the specification indicates Edge Lit rather than full-array local dimming (FALD). “MiniLED” refers to the use of smaller LED diodes that enable more precise control of backlight brightness and contrast compared to standard LEDs; it does not strictly require a full-array arrangement. By using smaller LEDs—even when positioned along the edges with a light-guide panel—LG’s Dimming Pro technology can create multiple dimming zones for improved contrast over traditional edge-lit designs. Edge-lit MiniLED setups use rows of these smaller LEDs around the panel’s perimeter, paired with advanced diffusion layers, to direct light across the screen and allow zone-based dimming. While FALD often offers the highest level of local dimming granularity by placing LEDs directly behind the screen, edge-lit MiniLED still enhances contrast and brightness compared to larger LEDs or non-MiniLED edge-lit models. This design can also support a slimmer TV profile. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-55-class-85a-series-qned-evo-ai-miniled-4k-uhd-smart-webos-tv-2025/6621808.p?skuId=6621808 If you’d like further details on the technology or guidance in comparing with other backlighting types, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport so our team can share official resources or discuss which LG models best fit your viewing preferences.
