Difference Between LED and LCD Video Wall

 

 

 

Both LCD splicing screen and LED display can achieve large-screen display effect, but there are still some differences between these two display devices. The following table simply summarizes the differences between the two. If you want to know more, please continue reading.

Resolution	1920 x 1080	640 x 360 or 960 x 540
Brightness	500 nits – 700 nits	600 nits – 6,000 nits
Contrast	1500:1	5000:1
Indoor/Outdoor use	indoor use	indoor or outdoor use
Cost	$5,000-$6,000	$40,000-$50,000

 

 

 

LCD splicing screens use LCD backlighting technology, which is similar to the display principle of home TVs, but the resolution is slightly lower than that of TVs. LED displays use light-emitting diode technology, which encapsulates the three primary color lamp beads into pixels to realize the display function. Common traffic lights, billboards, etc. all use this LED display technology.

 

LCD video wall displays are generally made up of four or more LCD screens spliced ​​together. This is due to the size limitations of a single panel. However, as the number of assembled panels increases, the weight of the display will continue to increase, making installation more difficult. In contrast, LED video walls are mainly composed of light-emitting diode (LED) modules, which makes the entire display thinner and brighter. Because the LED itself can generate images for the display, there is no need for backlight or filters, which greatly reduces the number of layers.

 

 

 

Resolution affects the sharpness and clarity of what is displayed on the screen. This is especially important for video walls, as it will determine the appropriate viewing distance.

 

For video walls, resolution affects the sharpness and clarity of what is displayed on the screen. When the resolution is higher, the content on the screen will be clearer when viewed up close; when the resolution is lower, the content on the video wall will be better viewed from a distance.

 

Compared to LEDs, LCD splicing screens can achieve high-definition display, with a resolution of up to 1920 x 1080, displaying high-definition images and videos. When the video wall is assembled, the total resolution of the video wall depends on how many panels are included. For example, a 3×4 LCD video wall has a total resolution of 5760 x 4320. LEDs can have different pixel pitches, so their resolutions will vary. An LED with a pixel pitch of 1.26 has a resolution of 960 x 540. On the same 3×4 video wall display, this LED has a total resolution of 2880 x 2160.

 

 

 

 

 

 

LCD itself is not waterproof, so it is mainly used indoors; LED can be used in various occasions, both indoors and outdoors.

 

 

 

LCD video walls, with their own technology, are mainly used in areas that require high-definition display and can achieve multiple functions such as splicing and segmentation, such as product showrooms, conference rooms, news broadcasting stations, monitoring centers, etc.

 

LEDs are mainly used in outdoor plazas, shopping malls, conference halls and other fields that are viewed from a distance. What needs to be paid attention to for outdoor LED video walls is the IP rating. This determines how it can cope with outdoor conditions. Outdoor LED display screens should choose a waterproof rating of IP65 or above. LED video walls are mainly used outdoors on roadsides, at the entrance of gymnasiums or venues, and on the sides of buildings.

 

 

 

 

The above is a brief introduction to the differences between LCD video wall and LED video wall in terms of display technology, resolution, stitching effect, installation environment and application fields. Enterprises can choose the appropriate video wall according to their needs.
