Silence floods in, and no one seems to know how to wrestle the conversation back to life.This particular form of silence came up recently on my podcast, Fifty Words for Snow, where my co-host Emily Garcés and I explore unique words from around the world that lack direct English equivalents.

Marketing and buzzwords can make one display sound better than the other, but that isnt necessarily the case here. So in this post, lets take a closer look at what sets mini-LED apart vs QLED and answer the age-old question: which technology should you buy for your next TV or monitor?What is a mini-LED display?TCLA mini-LED display makes use of hundreds or even thousands of tiny LEDs as the backlight.
