Is an LED screen better than an LCD screen if the tvs have the same contrast ratio?

Emily

Is an LED screen still better than an LCD screen in terms of colour contrast if the tvs have the same contrast ratio? Or does it make little difference, as I suspect? :) This would be really helpful as I am thinking of buying a new tv, thanks.

Answer
"LCD" and "LED" sets have the same screen, an array of liquid crystals. The difference between the two is the backlight, not the screen. Old LCD sets use a fluorescent lamp. Newer "LED" sets use a bank of light emitting diodes.

Forget contrast ratio in TV advertising claims. It's impossible to measure dynamic contrast ratio, so manufacturers can claim anything they want. The best way to judge contrast is to look at different sets operating as demonstrators in a TV store. Being "LED" doesn't automatically guarantee better contrast. You have to evaluate specific models, and there are some conventional LCDs that do better in professional lab testing than several "LED" sets.

Don't worry about those contrast ratio claims.....There is no actual way to measure the contrast ratio on an HDTV.. The various companies use all kinds of numbers to get you to buy their TV.. It all really depends on how it is set up..... I have compared several TV's with claims of great contrast ratios....They all looked the same. It's really 'hype'...
