Hi

Firstly remember an LED TVs lifespan is anything between 3-5 years and hence you should look for something that has good warranty and which fits your budget.

Do Window shopping at Croma / Vijay Sales / E Zone and see different TV models...most important check the number of inputs and connectivity options like HDMI, USB, Component Video, Analog connections, audio out etc...you don't want to end up spending a lot and later on know you cannot add your DVD player or set top box.

Next and the most important is to see different TVs on same channel, watch discovery or nat geo see the blues, red and greens and see what appeals to your viewing angles and pleasure....test the TV from different angels of viewing...next is sound output...a TV having a front soundbar is better else you end up amplifying your TV all the time....

I did the same and finalised on Toshiba which had multiple connectivity options, 3 years warranty and appealed in all aspects....Vijay Sales was selling it 5-8% lower than MRP but I got the same warranty and model for almost 25% less with my local dealer.

If you have dealt with the grey market before and know some people then go ahead..as you may know goods will be cheaper but no warranty.

Hope this helps'

LCD and LED are two different things.

Yes, LED Tvs doesn't long like previous Tvs.
So keep an eye out on that.

LED and lcd are the same and infact LED emitters have a higher life and rarely fail compared to the CCFL which begins to darken as they age leading to non uniform screen.
