lcd vs led monitors, which is better?

Q.

A. The main projection of the screen is still LCD. The screen is not made with individual LEDs. Push (gently) on any modern flat panel monitor and you see the same liquid distortion from the LCD that the old ones had. The difference is the back lighting. LCDs by default have no light, they are just a switching screen. For them to light up, they have to have a light source pushing in from behind (backlit). In "LCD" monitors that we are all used to for 10 yrs, they used a tiny bright fluorescent bulb generally in the bottom that provided the flood of light. Only problem is the light isn't always even, the bulbs burn out quicker (and can go dim before), and the color temperature of the light produced isn't perfect and varies. LED monitors use ultra-bright LEDS (like everyone sees in flashlights and under-counter lamps) to provide the light source. They are brighter, longer-lasting, make almost no heat, and use less energy. Their color output is normally more true-to-life so you can reproduce pictures accurately as well. So after all the technobabble...LED monitors will use less electricity, last longer, and probably look a little better. And will most likely completely replace CFL-lit screens shortly. I have 2 22" LED monitors, they are very bright and have produce zero heat.

Led Monitor vs Lcd Monitor?

Q. which one is better in terms of picture quality ? i have no idea...

A. Just to clarify. BOTH are using LCD tech. Its down to the panel.
The LED part is about the backlight. Normal LCD screens use cold cathode for lighting, LED marked screens use LED lighting. It does make for a better lighting and in the end of the day better screen, i'm just saying what the difference is. That it is still an LCD panel, just using LEDs for light.
If you get a 500 euro LCD using cold cathode, and an LED using screen that costs 200, chances are the 500euro one is better.
