Samsung's old model only had 70 individual regions...Brightside's original prototype had 1400 I think.

On a big screen, it doesn't seem like 70 regions would be enough in some circumstances...]]>Aug 1st 2008 4:54PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/08/01/lg-takes-the-wraps-off-1-000-000-1-contrast-47lg90-lcd/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/08/01/lg-takes-the-wraps-off-1-000-000-1-contrast-47lg90-lcd/

The new 9-series uses 276 individually dimmable regions.

The original 8-series is said to have had "less than 100" -- it's actually 70, IIRC.

For comparison, I believe that Brightside's original HDR monitor used around 1400 regions on a 40" screen...]]>Aug 2nd 2008 8:04PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/08/01/lg-takes-the-wraps-off-1-000-000-1-contrast-47lg90-lcd/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/08/01/lg-takes-the-wraps-off-1-000-000-1-contrast-47lg90-lcd/
47LG90 have 128 dimmable regions and each region has 12 LEDs so thats's a total of 1536 LEDs.]]>Aug 4th 2008 8:49AM
