Mini LED offers significant improvements over traditional LED in several aspects, particularly in picture quality, brightness, and contrast. Here are the main differences:

1. Picture Quality
* Brightness and Contrast: Mini LED uses smaller LED chips and local dimming technology, achieving higher brightness and deeper blacks for a clearer and more detailed picture. For example, TCL’s Mini LED TVs can achieve a peak brightness of 1200 nits and a contrast ratio of 10,000,000:1.
* Color Reproduction: Mini LED has a wider color gamut and produces more natural and richer colors, superior to traditional LED.

2. Technological Differences
* Local Difference Backlighting: Mini LED chips are smaller (micrometer-level), allowing for more local dimming zones, precise brightness adjustment, and reduced halos. Traditional LED chips are larger, have fewer local dimming zones, and lower dimming precision.
* Lifespan and Power Consumption: Mini LED has a lifespan of up to 100,000 hours and is less prone to burn-in (unlike OLED burn-in issues). At the same brightness, Mini LED consumes less power. 3. Applicable Scenarios

High-end Displays: Mini LED is suitable for scenarios with high image quality requirements, such as 4K/8K TVs and professional monitors.

Traditional LED: Can still meet daily needs, but image quality and energy efficiency are relatively inferior.

Summary
Mini LED surpasses traditional LED in all aspects of image quality, energy efficiency, and lifespan, making it especially suitable for users who pursue a high-end visual experience. If the budget allows, Mini LED is the better choice.
