    We got given one of those led strips that stick to the edges all the way around the back of the TV. We have it on red and it’s a great mood light in an otherwise pitch black room. I wasn’t convinced I would like it but everyone in the house does.

    If you’re referring to the backlight on an LED TV, the one we got has “zones” so the bleed isn’t too bad at all.

    This post caused me to look for the first time in ages and the QLED ones look interesting.

      The mood light thing. Some televisions have adaptive lights that project colours of the screen on the wall behind. For me the telly is the window to another universe. I want to be immersed in the movie. I can maybe see the appeal if watching family entertainment and such but for me it’s a nope.

        Yeah that’s Phillips specific as far as I know. Never seen it IRL but the reviews for it are good in that it expands your perception of the screen size but I totally hear you. The immersion is the thing for me too and I’m not sure how it would affect it.
