The main differences between the brightness of LED display screens are as follows:

Usage environment: Low-brightness LED displays are generally used in places that require a soft and comfortable environment, such as cinemas, studios, etc. High-brightness LED displays are suitable for outdoor environments or strong light conditions, such as outdoor billboards, stadiums, and stations. wait.

Energy consumption: Low-brightness LED displays consume less power because of their lower brightness, while high-brightness LED displays consume more power because of their higher brightness.

Display effect: Low-brightness LED displays can reduce glare and make viewing the screen more comfortable. Medium-brightness LED displays provide moderate brightness and can clearly present content in indoor environments with high visibility, while high-brightness LED displays The screen can resist strong light exposure, ensuring that content is clearly visible.

LED brightness characteristics: Different types and brands of LEDs have different brightness characteristics. Some LEDs may provide higher brightness at lower currents, while others may require higher currents to achieve similar brightness levels.

Drive Current: The brightness of an LED is usually directly proportional to its drive current. Increasing the LED drive current can increase brightness, but it also increases energy consumption and heat generation. Therefore, it is necessary to balance the relationship between brightness and power consumption when designing LED displays.

Display design: The design of the LED display also affects the brightness. This includes the arrangement of LEDs, brightness uniformity, distance between lamp beads, etc. Reasonable design can ensure that the entire screen can provide uniform and high-quality brightness.

Ambient Light: The brightness of the display may be perceived differently under different ambient light conditions. In bright environments, higher brightness may be easier to notice. However, in low-light conditions, higher brightness may appear harsh.
