Difference Between SMART TV and LED TV

Table of Contents

Main Difference

The main difference between SMART TV, and LED TV, is that SMART TV is light-emitting diode TV, whereas LED (Light Emitting Diode) TV shows images in the light more clearly.

SMART TV vs. LED TV vs. LCD TV

SMART TV is a kind of television that works online, i.e., with an internet connection. LED (Light Emitting Diode) is a kind of television that shows images in the light more clearly. SMART TV works with internet access or connectivity, whereas LED TV does not require an internet connection to work.

SMART TV operates with a DSL cable and shows a full range of programs, while LED is the latest technology in television devices. SMART TV does not come with a fixed price. It can be paid every month, whereas LED TV is the most expensive of all the TV types.

SMART TVs can work on either type of visual devices without any display specification, while LED TVs to have more brightness that is spread uniformly. SMART TV does not give any option for size. LED TV has fewer size choices. SMART TV is known to have its terrestrial networks, content, and channels, whereas LED TV gives the channels provided by the broadcast networks.

What is a SMART TV?

SMART TV is also known as hybrid television. It is a light-emitting diode TV that works with an online internet connection. It has pre-loaded applications and Internet-ready features. It can stream services like Netflix, YouTube, and many other applications. It can also browse different social media websites. A reliable Internet connection must be assured to utilize all the features of the SMART TV. For a user to stream video on a SMART TV, he must have a reliable Internet connection.

SMART TV is also known as a ‘set-top box’ with an internet connection and exclusive web features. It can also be called the amalgamation of computers, the internet, broadcast networks, and televisions. However, SMART TV cannot be called an internet TV because it contains its channels and content. It can also connect with DVD players, USB, Blu-ray players, and the like. Some well-known companies for the manufacturing of SMART TV are Samsung, LG, and Sony.

What is a LED TV?

LED the term stands for ‘Light Emitting Diode.’ LED TV is a kind of televisions which shows the images in light and more explicit manner. LED TVs require backlighting, which is gained by many diodes. These diodes transmit the signals in the form of active and negative electrodes (cathode and anode). LED TV runs with excellent energy efficiency giving a highly defined picture.

LED TV is a development of the previous kind of televisions like LCD televisions. It is a flat-screen device that uses hundreds of small LEDs ( placed throughout the display). These LEDs show both lighter and darker shades of the picture. However, there is a disadvantage with this feature that even if the television is not turned on, but the plug is inserted, it will not cease using the electricity to run its diodes.

The regular LED TV can only be used with media players such as Blu-ray devices and cable set-top boxes. The reason behind a better picture of LED TV is its color palette or different RGB-illuminations or colored lights (green, red, blue). It generates more real and sharp or keen colors. Moreover, the light-emitting diodes have the dimming capability on the backlighting that darkens the lights and blocks light to pass through the panel producing a more accurate black color of the picture.

Key Differences

SMART TV works with an internet connection; on the other hand, the working of LED TV does not require internet.

SMART TV, is a light-emitting diode, whereas LED (Light Emitting Diode) TV shows clear images in the light.

SMART TV shows a full range of programs with DSL cable; on the flip side LED is the latest type of television device.

SMART TV can be paid on a monthly basis with no fixed rates; inversely, LED TV is the most expensive.

SMART TV has no option for size; conversely, LED TV has fewer size choices.

SMART TVs go with either type of visual devices without any display specification. In contrast, LED TVs are having more and uniform brightness.

SMART TV has terrestrial networks, content, and channels, whereas LED TV is provided by the channels with a broadcaster.

Conclusion

SMART TV, and LED TV are the two electronic devices that are different from each other based on their functioning technology and price range.
