Hi guys,

I was just wondering if there is any difference between a LCD monitor and a TFT LCD monitor, as some manufacturers describe their monitors as LCD and some as TFT.

LCD- Liquid Crystal Display
TFT- Thin Film Transistor

aren't TFT type of LCD's?
correct me if i am wrong.

ya there is a difference between then tft is also a type of lcd but it consumes more power than lcd and also much brighter and sharper image display on the screen.

tft manufacturing cost is high;failure rate is high(dead pixels)

I don't think that TFT will consume more power than LCD. It's a myth !
