Summary

  • Mini-LED screens use smaller LEDs than standard LED screens and increase the brightness and contrast of the display, while micro-LEDs are even smaller and brighter still, and in some ways outperform OLED displays.
  • For example, micro-LEDs do not need a backlight so can display true black, unlike OLEDs, and reach even higher peaks of brightness.
  • However, currently micro-LED technology is very expensive and not yet scalable, while mini-LED displays are both more affordable and readily available, making the two variants comparable cousins.
  • With this in mind, the average consumer opting for an LED screen upgrade may want to consider a mini-LED display, which supersedes the quality of LED at a reasonable cost.
