Default OLED Televisions.

Notice these are being promoted. Are they a true LED TV, or just LCD
with LED backlight?


The pixels are emmissive and need no back light - so yes they are "true"
LED in that sens, even if you would not recognise the LED itself.

The main advantage is "perfect" black levels, wide viewing angles are
ridiculously thin screens. Downside is eye watering prices at the
moment, and some question over the longevity of the panels (especially
the blue component)
