In Reply to: Which is better: LCD or LED picture quality? posted by jedrider on July 29, 2013 at 13:11:18:
The LEDs will be more energy efficient, generate less heat and be razor-thin. The light is a bit different and most LEDS hav a bit of a bluish cast to the pure whites. Actually both use back lit LCD, but the traditional LCD is a fluorescent backlight rather than LED.
I expect the non-LED units will be phased out pretty much over the next year, and then buyers will only debate the merits of the various LED lighting schemes. The edge-backlit system is cheaper but traditionally not as even. The Web sites that test TV sets study this in great detail, esp the issue of whether the Edge-backlit sets are starting to catch up with the more expensive to manufacture systems.
