What's the difference in HDTV, LED, and LCD televisions?

I have absolutely no freakin clue. However, this might help you. I’ve heard that LED is better than LCD, as it allows for more detail to be viewed on the screen and is better for resolution, but I have no idea how true that is…I have an LCD TV, and it rocks for everything, but watching DVD’s on it can get slightly gnarly, but not very much. Hopefully this article helps you a little. what I’d like to know is which of these is better for avoiding ’‘motion blurriness’’

Also HDTV means high definition TV, which is pretty much all the modern TV’s you can have. LED, LCD, Plasma. I think…

It’s very confusing and I don’t really understand it all, but first, HDTV, high-definition television requires both … the the signal is “broadcast” or transmitted in HDTV and that you have a television or monitor capable of receiving and producing HDTV, and the types of TVs, LED, LCD, Plasma, are types of televisions, those terms describe the technology used to display the image on the television.

More than that, I’m pretty much clueless.

From personal experience. LED trumps LCD. My friend prefers Plasma though. I haven’t watched on his TV yet so I don’t know how it compares to LED. Also, it seems LED consumes less energy than LCD, if I’m not mistaken. Btw, isn’t LED and LCD TV’s automatically HDTVs by definition-? No pun intended. : )

Apparently the next big thing is UD ultra-definition.
This allows the viewer to witness Hillary Clinton’s moustache flicker as the sun cascades across it’s feathery strands.

@ucme Thank God we won’t have to see Mitt Romney’ sacred underwear in HD.

@lillycoyote Viewer discretion, was never more pertinent.

0@ucme Yes, no whining people, if you don’t want to see it, turn off, whatever the hell it is you’re watching it on: your phone, your tablet, your HDTV, LCD, LED, Plasma TV, any TV, whatever, you have the power!

LED is light emitting diode. LCD is liquid crystal display. HD is just a form of high definition, I believe it is available on either.

LED should use less energy because LED’s are very low power, but I suspect they still use a ton of energy vs a regular CRT
