They are also all 120 Hz.

They are expensive now since it's the top of the curve, but if you wait 6 months or so, they should drop in price once the next iteration of models is released.

That is where I would put my money.

If you are looking to spend less than $1K, I would recommend a Samsung LCD, 5 series or higher.
I don't see how the LED backlighting will have anything to do with bad pixels.
