LED and LCD refer to different kinds of lighting used for televisions. LED lighting is actually a kind of LCD lighting, but it uses light-emitting diodes (LED) so black colors look darker while bright colors seem brighter. LCD lighting generally uses compact fluorescent lamps (CFL), which are actually tubes, so LED diodes usually allow TVs to be built thinner.

What is the main difference between an led hdtv and a lcd hdtv?
The difference between led hdtv and lcd hdtv is that the led uses led lighting instead of lcd lighting that's used in computers and cell phones. the lcd hdtv is the oldest model and the led is the newest. With the led the picture is clearer.
What is the difference between and LCD T.V. and a LED T.V.?
They are actually quite similar. LED televisions are actually just LCD televisions that use LED lighting for the back light instead of the traditional fluorescent CFL lighting. http://lcdtvbuyingguide.com/HDTV/led-vs-lcd.html
What exactly are LED - LCD HDTVs and what is the difference between them and a regular led or LCD tv?
An LCD TV is exactly an LCD screen with fluorescent lighting shining through it. Without the light, you could see very little on the screen. An LED TV is exactly an LCD screen with LEDs behind the LCD screen shining through it. The LED lighting gives more even color and brightness on all pixels, and results in a sharper image with more 'pop'.
How does an LED TV differ from a regular LCD TV?
LED TV's have LED back-lighting. LED TV's usually last longer than LCD TV's. Bth are reliable and widely used.
What is good about an LED HDTV?
The difference between a LED and a LCD is that the LED uses back lighting that some say give it a higher quality picture then the LCD TV. Other benefits of the LED is that it is a thinner panel and uses less power to run then the LCD.
What does transmissive display mean with computers?
These are LCD screens used for notebook computers. What it mean when they say transmissive is that the pixels are illuminated from behind with an LED back light. They are primarily mean for indoor lighting.
What is a better picture LCD or LED?
The term LED is ambiguous when it comes to television.At the time of writing, in early 2013, LED generally refers to an LCD television with LEDs as the back lighting instead of cold cathode fluorescent tubes. They offer a more energy efficient lighting solution but in both cases, the image is generated by the LCD panel that controls the passing of light to generate the image.Some people prefer the image from LED lit televisions but it is a subjective view.However, true LED televisions have made an entry to the market and will become more common in the coming years. They are frequently known as OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode). In these models, every pixel has a red, green and blue LED. To build the image, each set of LEDs are varied in brightness and it is the LEDs themselves that create the picture rather than a second layer as in the LCD type. These televisions have the capability of displaying higher contrast rations and even lower energy consumption. This is a departure from LCD technology and the images are likely to be noticeably different to LCD types.
What makes Samsung LED better than LCD?
Some people consider that an LED backlit LCD television is better than a CCFL back lit television. Others disagree. The type of back lighting does not change the core technology of the LCD but it can deliver a better color balance. The best judges are your won eyes. Look at both and you will know which type you prefer. LED back lighting or LED side lighting are becoming more common as they are slimmer than CCFL models and are also become less expensive to produce than CCFL.
Trying to choose between LED, LCD and Plasma. Anyone have any suggestions?
We prefer LCD. We have two and they are great. LCD is the only way to go Plasma TVs are better for viewing rooms where you can control the lighting. If glare is an issue then go for an LCD
Which is energy saver LCD or LED?
LCD televisions use either cold cathode fluorescent lighting or LED lighting. Both type are still LCD but the LED illuminated versions are rather more energy efficient than the CCFL types.The new breed of true LED televisions, being referred to as OLED (Organic LED), is becoming available during 2013 and uses LEDs to directly generate an image rather than the two layer solution of the LCD models. These will only emit light when needed and are set to improve energy efficiency still further.
Which is better to play video games on lcdtvs or led?
A LED screen is just an LCD screen with more modern back lighting. LED screens save more power and are lighter, but I don't think there are any noticeable quality differences between an FHD LED screen and a FHD LCD screen.
What is different between LED and LCD?
At the time of writing in 2012, LED televisions are in fact, LCD television with LED back lighting. Conventional LCD televisions use cold cathode fluorescent tubes as a back light. Apart from the lighting source, the televisions share the same technology and produce an image in the same. True LED televisions are about to reach the market in 2012 or 2013. They use LEDs to directly create an image and do not relay on liquid crystal shutters to generate images. They have the potential to be far slimmer than LCD televisions as well as offering higher contrast ratios.
