Why is this LED-LCD? Is this some combination of the two?

The term "LED" is a bit of a misnomer. All LED TV's are actually LCD TV's that use LED lights to backlight the screen. What are advertised as LCD TV's are LCD TV's that use flourescent lights to backlight the screen.

It is LED LCD. It is an LCD panel that is backlit by LEDs. All "LED" panels are this way.

The backlight is done by LEDs as opposed to LCDs, so it's the same thing, The second naming is just more complete.

How do I know if I have an LCD or an LED and can I turn it into an LED if I want? I have opened the screen but nothing to determine it. A number LTN156AT01 is listed.

I assume that the new one is an led backlight? If so I think this cable is the opposite. It looks like converts a ccfl screen to work on a laptop set up for led.

I'm no expert but I do know LED stands for "light emitting diode" and LCD means " liquid crystal display" It is two different technologies to produce the picture of the TV.

Every LED Monitor is an LCD screen. It just uses LED backlighting.. So yes this is an LED monitor. I love this monitor. You will too if you don't plan on making and stand adjustments!! Hope you enjoy!

They're the same thing. Led is just the type of backlighting the TV has. It's still an LCD.

Sorry, it was a gift for a friend. But if it's a LED and not a LCD, then the individual numbers glow.

I dont believe it explicitly says (in english) which it is. My last monitor was an LCD and I was unable to see it if I wasn't looking dead on. This one is beautiful from every angle....so I would assume its a true LED. I'm very satisfied with mine. It serves as an excellent media center.

LCD means Liquid Crystal Diode, LED means Light Emitting Diode. Not sure why the TV says LED-LCD because this TV is actually a LCD TV. Both technologies are current-state technologies in the TV market.

It is a led light witch pops out more then a dot on the screen. In reality there is no difference just appearance. I can focus on the dot more sense it lights up

Well noe, it is both!!! The screen is l.C.D. (liquid crystal display), and the backlight system is L.E.D. (light emitting diode). I own one, and like it...

Are you sure that the 22-incher is "LED"? The only one that I see is "LCD". It's up to you to decide if the difference in size and type is worth the $20.

I think it's because other led's have their own problems. No clear cut choice in led tv's it seems.
