That's from an older NEC Model (Which along with most other Brands had very poor Contrast Ratio ).
The current Models of the same Brands have much better CR (real world

).

LCD TV contrast ratios are measured using "real world" standards. Typical contrast ratios range from 350-450:1.
LCD TVs contrast ratios measured in real world situations double typical plasma TVs.

Not compared to a Panasonic Plasma TV...
In "real world" - In this case a calibrated - 2001 Panasonic 42" ED Display already had 600-650:1 CR (750-800:1 Peak).
