I am very happy with this tv it is big. We had a rear projection 46'' before it was good until hd capability died. With the new KDL55EX720 Bravia 55'' we were amazed at the colors and clarity with HD we have had it for a few weeks and have not figured out how to do everything this tv can do but so far so good. This item was a fair price but throwing in the blue ray player and the 2 pair of 3D glasses made it a great deal.
Great LED at great price!!!

I usually only buy from the Sony XBR lineup, but this TV is great as well. Wasn't that interested in 3D until actually trying it. Amazing.
An LED-backlight LCD television is an LCD TV that uses LED backlighting instead of the CCFLs used in traditional LCD televisions. It is not a true LED display but is called "LED TV" by some manufacturers. The use of LED backlighting has a dramatic impact, resulting in a thinner panel, less power consumption and heat dissipation, and a brighter display with better contrast levels.
The LEDs can come in three forms:
Dynamic RGB LEDs which are positioned behind the panel
White Edge-LEDs positioned around the rim of the screen using a special diffusion panel to spread the light evenly behind the screen (the most common)
A full-array of LEDS which are arranged behind the screen but are incapable of dimming or brightening individually
LED backlighting techniques:
An LED-backlit TV: RGB dynamic LEDs This method of backlighting allows dimming to occur in locally specific areas of darkness on the screen. This can show truer blacks, whites and PRs at much higher dynamic contrast ratios, at the cost of less detail in small bright objects on a dark background, such as star fields.
Edge-LEDs: This method of backlighting allows for LED-backlit TVs to become extremely thin. The light is diffused across the screen by a special panel which produces a uniform color range across the screen.
Full Array LEDs: Many brands use LED backlighting technology and may offer a range of benefits over CCFL LCD TVs such as reduced energy consumption, better contrast and brightness, greater colour range, more rapid response to changes in scene and a capacity to provide the means to render an image more accurately.
Differences between LED-backlit and CCFL-backlit LCD displays
LED-backlit LCD TVs differ from conventional CCFL-backlit LCD TVs in the following:
Produce images with greater dynamic contrast.
With Edge-LED lighting they can be extremely slim. Models on the market can be approximately one inch thick.
Offer a wider color gamut, especially when RGB-LED backlighting is used.
