I’ve noticed this as well.

There’s a lot of things that contribute towards that look (in addition to quality of led and/or signal).

- it’s at an angle behind the faux-tv housing with a noticeable gap between the two.
- that angle faces upwards into the backbox reflection on tour glass
- the GI lights are bright

Those three are all diluting the visibility through a trifecta of visual interference and competition.

This is me just chattering away with theories - I am not a television repair person, nor do I play one on TV.

The biggest thing is viewing angle. The screen goes from meh to mushrooms if you look at it sideways.

I would happily upgrade that thing if I could.

It has to be a universal part, no?

I once heard a podcast about someone upgrading their Rick and Marty LED for better angle viewing.

That all being said, I never look at the thing anyway. It’s all washed out.
