**compare base on performance and lifespan and durability of the tv.
I already have a LCD tv and want to upgrade. Lately there is more and more LED tv are being released.
Answer
LED TV isn't always an upgrade over LCD because LED TVs are really just LCD TVs with LED backlights.
The razor thin sets actually give up picture quality to get that super thin profile. These edge lit TVs have issues with uniformity and light leakage. You won't notice it in the store, but you'll see it at night when you are at home and the lights are out.
If you go with an LED/LCD TV, you need to buy a TV that uses LEDs in a local dimming configuration not edge lit. Most LED TVs are edge lit, not local dimming. To make matters worse, some TV makers use their own lingo. Vizio for example calls their local dimming sets, TruLED.
I'd take a good plasma set over an edge lit LCD/LED TV any day. The very best local dimming LED/LCD sets and the very best plasma sets are a close call.

not sure what the diffrence is...
Answer
Let's say you are currently purchasing a Sony, Sharp, or a Samsung LCD HDTV vs a LED HDTV. Well, you know your also paying for the name now. But I promise a great build from either company! Brand names in this field are good, as they are experienced and have better build quality. You must remember however LCD's and LED's are technically the same! The typical LCD's will have a CCFL -backlight- while what stores claim to be an LED TV has LED's (Light Emitting Diode) as the backlight. In truth, LED TV's names are LCD-LED's. LED's address many of the issues of LCD's though! Traditional LCD's you get poor contrast, especially on darks (you don't receive a true black, but rather a dark grey) while an LED will give you a much more true black and a brighter white. This allows for superior colour contrasts and much better picture. Another pro for the LED is that it is much more light weight and slimmer than it's traditional LCD counterpart. Viewing angles are also bad on LCD's while LED's improve on this by increasing the angle at which you can view the screen without ruining quality or clarity. The LED's lifespan is estimated as double if not even more that of a LCD TV, whilst still cutting the energy consumed in the process at the very least by half! (I find that my Samsung has cut back on energy by at least 75% from my last LCD).
But be warned! At this time, stores are tricking the people! They promise you an LED HDTV 1080p at 120Hz say 60". But LED options don't just end with LED vs LCD! No no! There are two types of LED's available. There's Edge-Lit LED and Full-Array LED. Edge-Lit is only the edges and corner areas of your screen using LED's to create your image. On very dark and black areas on movies, TV and games you'll notice streaks of light. That's the one con! Full-Array is the entire backing of your TV being laced with LED's. This offers better blacks, and brighter whites, which in the ends means higher quality. If you have the money (1500 - 2500) I'd say buy a Sharp or Samsung 50" + LCD-LED HDTV 1080p 120Hz FULL-ARRAY. Or if you're really into waiting a bit, like the other post said the new OLED TV's are suspected to hit stores. But remember, get those ones too in Full-Array, 1080p and 120Hz!
If your still confused, go to your local stores and ask to test out some stuff on their TV's to compare which you like better. Good luck!
