The differences between LED and OLED panels are mainly reflected in the light source principle, structural design, screen display quality and durability. If you are still unclear about the subtle differences between the two, you can refer to the following detailed explanation.
LED's full name is "light emitting diode", which is the abbreviation of light-emitting diode;
OLED is "Organic Light-Emitting Diode", which means organic light-emitting semiconductor.
The LED display screen contains a luminescent layer inside, which is composed of multiple red LEDs and uses the rotation of liquid crystal molecules to display different images.
Each pixel in the OLED panel can independently emit monochromatic light, without the need for a light-emitting layer, and only need to be driven by current to allow the organic film to emit light by itself.
The structure of the LED screen is relatively complicated and consists of several layers of materials;
In contrast, OLED does not require a backlight, so it is extremely thin and light, about one-third or less the thickness of an LED screen.
In addition, OLED panels have bendable properties, which are beyond the reach of LEDs.
LED screens can usually present a color gamut range of 72% of NTSC, while OLED's color performance is more vivid, up to 100% of NTSC, which is enough to meet the current demand for high-standard color gamuts such as BT 2020, but there may be color temperature deviation issues.
LED screens are not prone to screen burn-in, while OLED screens are prone to this problem after long-term use. Therefore, LED has more advantages in terms of service life.
