Splicing Screen vs. LED Display: Differences and How to Choose 2023

In many large screen display products, LCD splicing screen and led display are two more common products, both similarities and differences, so, what are the differences between LCD splicing screen and led display?

Part 1. What is the LCD Splicing Screen

LCD splicing screen in the usual sense refers to the use of LCD technology composed of LCD splicing screen, its technical principle and the same TV, except that it has a splicing function, and the surrounding bezel is very narrow, so you can splice multiple screens into a large screen use.

According to the different use requirements, to achieve variable large can also be changed to a hundred different large screen function: single screen split display, single screen alone, any combination of display, full-screen LCD splicing, double splicing LCD screen splicing, vertical screen display, image border optional compensation or masking, support digital signal roaming, scaling and stretching, cross-screen display.

LCD Splicing Screen Features

The contemporary LCD splicing screen body mainly uses TFT (ThinFilmTransistor) technology as the underlying drive technology to achieve high speed, high brightness, high contrast, color reproduction, wide viewing angle display effect.

In terms of display technology, TN screen, IPS screen, CPA screen, PVA screen and MVA screen are often used, of which TN screen is widely used and the cheapest, the disadvantage is that the perspective is small and pseudo-color, which has a modified version of TN + film screen.

The main difference between these screens is the contrast, perspective, color performance and response speed and other display details, it should be said that each has its own strengths. Among them, IPS (hard screen), has a better overall display effect, with a high viewing angle, fast response time, accurate color reproduction and other advantages, the disadvantage is more serious light leakage, black purity is not enough.

Part 2. What is LED Display

LED display is a flat panel display that consists of a small LED module panel, used to display text, images, video and other information of various devices.

LED electronic display integrates microelectronics technology and computer technology, with the advantages of bright colors, wide dynamic range, high brightness, long life and reliable work. LED display is widely used in commercial media, stadiums, news release, securities trading, etc. It can meet the needs of different environments.

Part 3. The Differences between LCD Splicing Screen and LED Display

1. Display technology 

LCD splicing screen using LCD backlight technology, its display technology and home TV set, but the resolution is usually 1920 * 1080, the current home TV set has reached 3840 * 2160.

LED display is light-emitting diode technology, the use of three primary color lamp beads chip encapsulated into a pixel display, we are common traffic lights, billboards, etc. are the use of LED display.

2. The difference in clarity

LED display integrated its resolution is lower, although the small pitch products will perform better, but still does not have the advantage when compared with the LCD splicing screen. This is because it is composed of one lamp beads, so the resolution and its lamp spacing, if you look at the top of the screen will have a sense of grain, the font will be composed of a small square, which is the reason for the low resolution.

LCD splicing screen resolution is high, the resolution of a single screen can reach 1920 * 1080, and the resolution can be stacked, so we can see that the LCD splicing screen above the image displayed more clearly.

3. The difference between the spacing

The advantage of the LED display is no seam, unlike the LCD splicing screen as a black edge, it is very complete after splicing the whole screen, better integrity. But the LCD splicing screen between the two screens will have a splice, ranging from a few millimeters, the smallest up to 0.88mm, in the display screen will be slightly affected.

4. The application scene difference

LCD splicing screen with its own technology, mainly used in the requirements of high-definition display, can achieve splicing, splitting and other functions of the field, such as product exhibition halls, conference rooms, news broadcasters, monitoring centers, etc LED is mainly used in outdoor squares, shopping malls, conference halls and other areas for long-distance viewing.

5. The installation environment difference

As the LCD is not waterproof, so it is mainly used indoors, while LED can be applied in a variety of occasions, both indoor and outdoor are available.

LCD splicing screen and LED display is mainly the above differences, that is, there are technical differences in the display effect, so the difference is still relatively large. When you choose the display device, you can choose according to the use, viewing distance, installation occasions and other criteria to choose. If you do not know which product to choose, you can directly consult the technical staff of Jingxin Technology, will give you a specific plan.

Part 4. How to Choose the Right Large Screen Display Solution [HOT!]

LCD splicing screen and LED splicing screen are two of the more common programs in the current large display market, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. In choosing the right large screen display solution for yourself, you can consider the following aspects:

1. Display effect: LCD splicing screen usually has a higher resolution and more realistic color reproduction ability, suitable for displaying high detail requirements, color requirements of the real scene; and LED splicing screen brightness and contrast ratio is higher, suitable for use in brighter light environment.

2. Specifications and size: LCD splicing screen specifications and sizes are usually more flexible, can be spliced as needed, suitable for use in space-constrained scenes; while LED splicing screen specifications and sizes are usually more fixed, suitable for use in large venues or outdoor scenes.

3. The stability and reliability of the display effect: LCD splicing screen display effect is relatively stable and reliable; while the LED splicing screen has a longer life, better seismic performance, and higher reliability.

4. Investment costs: LCD splicing screen is usually cheaper, suitable for small venues or lower demand users; while LED splicing screen is usually more expensive, suitable for large venues or higher demand users.
