ah ok, ur talkin about LED lit LCD screens. LCD screens usually have like a bulb in the back to light up the screen so u can actually see the picture. them bulbs are big so take up space. so what they did was replaced that bulb wit LEDs in the outer casing of the screen to send the light inwards.
coz they replaced the bulb they can now make them skinnier. but they're still LCD screens, just lit with LEDs instead of the fluorescent lamps.
upside of them is that they're skinnier and use less electricity, and have no poisonous gases like they have in the bulbs. so that makes it more environmentally friendly.

picture wise, they;re the same.
