Not all modern flat-panel televisions are the same. Although LED screens (monitors and TVs) are the most common type, shopping for a new screen can get confusing, especially since we’re bombarded with many different abbreviations. For instance, what’s the difference between a UHD and an LED screen? In most cases, UHD screens are just a variation of LEDs with a higher pixel count. This is the case for most panels and screens.  But is this also the case for DLED screens? LED vs DLED; the following guide will compare these panel types. It would help if you understood the differences by the end of it. <\/p>\n\n\n

The best way to understand LED<\/a> screens is to compare them to LCD screens. When flat-screen TVs rose to prominence, most were LCD types. However, today, almost no screens fall under the LCD label. Yet, nearly every screen uses an LCD layer to transmit a picture. The difference is the light source. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditional LCDs used cold cathode<\/a> fluorescent lamps (CCFL) backlights behind a crystal display panel. LED screens use small light-emitting diodes as backlights. They also act as pixels. The key advantage of using LEDs in this fashion is you can actuate each LED and add real nuance to how the screen displays pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, manufacturers will arrange LEDs in different fashions to optimize the production of screens and allow for different price points. Thus, we can see the difference when comparing LED vs. DLED.<\/p>\n\n\n

Direct Light Emitting Diode (DLED) screens are modern full-array LED screens. The screens use multiple rows of LEDs to provide backlighting for the front LCD panel. Thus, LEDs and DLEDs aren’t competing for products. Instead, DLEDs are types of LED screens in the same way OLED and Nano Cell<\/a> screens are. DLED’s true competing technology is the ELED.<\/p>\n\n\n
