We measured the uniformity of the panel's lighting.

For those of you who aren't used to the Tom's Hardware tests, we'll recall the method we use:

We set the panel at 50% brightness and 50% contrast and measure the uniformity of the lighting on a white image separated into 64 areas of equal size. The brightest point is considered to be 100%, and the previously measured black value is considered 0%, with the other values obtained distributed between them.

The superiority of Lumileds is very clear here as well. The differences we measured were a maximum of 5%, or a maximum deviation of 2.5% from the average for the panel! Compare that result to that of the NEC 2180UX.
