Is LED better than LCD?
The comparison between LED and LCD displays can be a bit nuanced, as "LED" displays are actually a type of LCD display. The key difference lies in the backlighting:

Uses liquid crystals to control light passing through.
Traditionally uses fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) for backlighting.
LED (Light-Emitting Diode) LCD:
Also uses liquid crystals.
Uses LEDs for backlighting, which offers several advantages.
Here's a breakdown of the key differences and where LED generally excels:
