And what about this one in particular?

This is the issue with these tvs, there's no manual and information is hard to find on exactly what you are buying.
This is the last time it was on sale so might be some members who got them that can help you.

@kevin404: I wouldn't believe what ai says about this TV unless it gives you a reference link that specifically says that. I asked gemini and it's just using product page on the warehouse as a reference which definitely doesnt have that info.

Gemini says this model (JVC 55 JV5524M) is meant to be full array.

Ok that's interesting. I just assumed mini-led displays always used fald. It would explain how these display are getting so cheap now if theyre just scamming us with edge lit. If they gave us the number of dimming zones that would give us a clue but, as you rightly point out, we dont get any real specs at all. Oh well, maybe someone will get one and let us know how it is.

Good idea. If someone does own one of these they could put a dark image on the screen and then look at it in a darkened room and it should be pretty easy to tell if it's edge lit or not. That would be neat if someone could do that for us, maybe even take a photo of it.

@Flippant: 126/128 local dim zones apparently.

Yes you're absolutely right , JVC does not exist it's a made-up brand now, these TVs are generic they are made under many brand names and this TV is made for the warehouse and using the JVC brand because that's what the NZ market recognises just like Philips .

This one is also tempting. But never heard of the brand. Coocaa 60" 4K Google TV for $399

UI is snappy with no lag. Contrast is good and deep black (not greyish black). Sound is amazing with built in subwoofer. Definitely a bargain.

Does it have a built in subwoofer?

Wonder if it's 144hz like the last JVC deal on here.

Thanks team. Anyone know of some sneaky warehouse or warehouse stationary discounts before I pull the trigger on this?

I would wait for budget QD with Mini LEDs Hisense and TCL makes them but not really cheaper in nz , all other brand have this combination with permium models . I personally find QD + mini LED which have many local zones better then OLED

I always assumed that QD was just a shortened version of QLED for marketing. What's the difference?
- 1
QD is mostly to do with the layers of LCD does it work it seems so to make a difference , does local dimining works , it also seems to help a lot as well so now this year we have this tech which is QD + mini LED on budget tv models https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSqMf0nDCZA
because i self host my own content and run jellyfin all over my home network and WWW at work i wanted some thing which gives best bang for money but not OLED ( burn in issue ) so i have to wait for this , i will later go with TCL as it has native apps from android speakers are 2.1 set up

Found a Reddit Thread yesterday that did a dive into the firmware and boards on these JVC Tv's and found they are basically just the older model TCL c825 miniled rebadged specifically for NZ Market.

Here are the specs for the c825
https://tclelectronics.co.nz/downloads/brochures/55C825_Prod…
It is direct lit not edge lit.
This tv was a premium model back in 2021, by the look of it the 65" model retailed for at least $2200aud because there are deals posted for it at that price over on Ozbargain

Mini-LED is really getting cheap now. I assume these budget miniled's look better than anything else in the price range but the exciting prospect for me is that maybe they will actually last as well. The previous edge lit style of LED TV was prone to overheating due to the concentration of LED's along the edge but that shouldnt be an issue for these.
