Hands-on: LG LEX8 “Nano LED” TV

How many months have I used my new Samsung C7000 LED TV? Just three months after it was installed on my wall, my 55-inch wonder is looking a little dated next to some of the new TV sets on show here at IFA Berlin.

In particular, the LG LEX8, which I got a bit of hands-on with at the LG bloggers’ forum, on the sidelines of the electronics expo here in Germany.

At just 8.8mm thin, this TV looks like a painting when placed in front of a wall. Unlike my Samsung TV, which is lit by LEDs on the edge of the screen, the LG LEX8 is lit with a full panel of LEDs, which LG calls Full LED (or Direct LED to neutrals).
