One of the most necessary elements in today's advertising is LED digital display technology. They are essential elements because they greatly enhance advertising campaigns and demonstrate their effectiveness in the production of visual effects.
Both touchscreens and LED displays have advantages and disadvantages. We will explain them to you in this blog below:
In the outdoor advertising industry, screen size is very important, because the greatest visual impact is always sought in the shortest time. Touch devices have entered the advertising market in a professional way. However, they are always small, between 43 and 86 inches. In contrast, there is no size limit for LED displays. It is not difficult to find an LED support that is 10 meters long or more, because this type of screen is modular and can be scaled to the size that the customer needs. Therefore, the LED screen is a winner in this regard.
On the other hand, as mentioned above, LED screens are modular, which greatly simplifies its transportation. One of the reasons why touchscreens are not produced in large sizes is that they are manufactured in one piece. In addition to limiting their scale, this also increases the risk of breakage or damage during transportation and installation.
Another important element in digital devices is brightness. High brightness means displaying the content on the screen correctly. Since touchscreens and LED displays are used exclusively in advertising, they have the precise brightness to properly display content. For technical reasons, LED screens will always have a higher brightness level to better withstand outside light. In this way, although both possibilities can work normally indoors, the touch screen is not suitable for outdoor use. When direct sunlight hits them, the brightness is insufficient and content is often difficult to see.
Economically, LED solutions vary a lot because their characteristics make them fully customizable. In this way, each LED screen has characteristics that will increase or decrease the price (total physical size, resolution, tone, etc.). The customization of LED screens makes it difficult to define if they are better than touch screens in this regard. However, equipment maintenance can be economically compared.
Touchscreens are expected to fail more, as touchscreens are frequently used by different users, thus requiring more frequent maintenance.
As for the LED pixel, its durability is related to external factors such as temperature and brightness level. Since the maximum brightness of the LED screen is only required in high sunlight, as opposed to indoor LED screens that require almost no maintenance.
Also, compared to touchscreens, the advantage of LED pixels again resides in their modules. The breakage or wear of the touch device means that in most cases a new device needs to be replaced, and in the LED display, the affected module can be replaced in a simple way.

The brightness and viewing angle of an LED display are also important indicators to evaluate its quality.
Brightness is the brightness displayed by the LED display. The brightness requirements of indoor LED displays and outdoor LED displays are different. For example, indoor brightness requirements are 800cd/㎡~1200cd/㎡, semi-indoor requirements are greater than 2000cd/㎡, and outdoor requirements are greater than 8000cdd/㎡ .
If the brightness of the outdoor LED display you see is low or the brightness of the indoor LED display is too bright, then the brightness must be unqualified. It’s not that brighter or darker is better. On the contrary, it can easily lead to a reduction in the life of the LED display.
The viewing angle refers to the maximum angle between the overall screen content that you can see from both sides of the display. Generally, the normal viewing angle of an LED display is above 150°. The size of the angle determines how many viewers can see the LED display, so the bigger, the better.
