TVs with black enhancement technologies

Black enhancement

— TV support for one or another black enhancement technology.

Deep blacks are as important to an image as the quality of other colours. At the same time, it is not as easy to achieve it as it might seem at first glance: the black areas of the screen are “lit up” by the backlight and, without additional tricks, may not look dark enough. Thus, modern TVs use various additional black enhancement technologies. One of the options for this technology is local backlighting, in which LEDs are placed not on the sides of the screen, but behind it: each of them illuminates its own section of the matrix and can be turned off if necessary. There are other, more complex ways to achieve high-quality black.
