P3 and P5 LED screens are used very much in our life, but many people may not be clear about the difference between them, let’s find out.
What is P3 and P5 LED screen
The LED display consisting of several LED modules with a center distance of 3mm between two adjacent LED beads is called P3 LED display.
An LED display consisting of several LED modules with two adjacent LED beads with a center distance of 5mm is called a P5 LED display.
Differences between P3 vs P5 LED screens
Differences in dot pitch
For LED display, the dot pitch refers to the center distance between two adjacent LED lamp beads, and its unit is generally millimeters.
According to the introduction of P3 LED display and P5 LED display above, it can be seen that the dot pitch of P3 LED display is smaller than that of P5 LED display, so P3 LED display will present a better picture effect than P5 LED display, and it can bring a comfortable viewing experience for the audience.
Different pixel density
According to the professional measurement of P3 LED display and P5 LED display, we can get that the pixel density of P3 LED display is 111111 dots/m², and the pixel density of P5 LED display is 40000 dots/m².
Comparing the two, we can see that the pixel density of the P3 LED display is 71111 dots/m² more than that of the P5 LED display, and this extra pixel density can bring better picture quality and viewing experience to the audience.
Difference in clarity
The level of clarity is determined by the size of pixel density. The higher the pixel density, the higher the clarity, and the clearer the details of the image.
The smaller the pixel density, the lower the clarity, the more blurred the details of the screen, which will affect the audience to watch the LED display.
Through the above comparison, we can get that the clarity of the P3 LED display is higher than that of the P5 LED display, which is more capable of bringing high-quality images to the audience.
Different Optimal Viewing Distance
When we watch the LED display, different viewing distance will affect the effect of watching the screen, the best viewing distance of P3 LED display is 3~5m/m2, which is more suitable for the scene of close viewing, and the best viewing distance of P3 LED display is 8~12m/m2, which is more suitable for the scene of long-distance viewing.
For example: when you watch the P3 LED display screen, the viewing distance is less than 3 meters / ㎡, then you will be very in the LED display screen, obviously see the different colors of the square, easy to make the eyes feel tired. If the viewing distance is more than 5m/m2, you will not be able to see more details of the LED display clearly.
Different module sizes
By the different LED modules P3 LED display module size of 192 * 192mm, P5 LED display module size of 320 * 160mm.
Different module sizes can make up for the fact that the screen aspect ratio is not the same, at the same time, in the same aspect ratio size, the number of different module sizes are not the same.
For example: in the case of the aspect ratio of 4:3, the need for 12 P3 LED modules, while the P5 LED modules only need 6 can be.
Scanning method is different
Scanning mode refers to the ratio of the number of rows lit at the same time to the number of rows in the whole area of the LED display. According to the different models of LED displays, the scanning mode is different. For example:
P3 LED display uses the scanning mode of 1/16 sweep, which is to divide the screen area of the LED display into 16 parts, and the LED lamp beads in each part are scanned in sequence;
P5 LED display uses the scanning mode of 1/8 sweep, which is to divide the screen area of the LED display into 8 parts, and the LED lamp beads are scanned in sequence in each area.
Different energy consumption
Since the pixel density of P3 LED display will be larger than that of P5 LED display, the number of LED beads of P3 LED display will be larger than that of P5 LED display, which will lead to more energy to be supplied to P3 LED display than that of P5 LED display, and the energy consumption will be faster.
Price difference
The number of LED beads needed for P5 LED display is less than that of P3 LED display, and the processing difficulty is easier than that of P3 LED display, and the process is more mature, therefore, in terms of price, P5 LED display is cheaper than P3 LED display.
Different application fields
P3 LED display is mainly used in some fields that require close viewing, such as: indoor billboards, museums, movie theaters and other indoor scenes.
P5 LED display is mainly used in some areas that need to be viewed from a distance, such as: outdoor billboards, outdoor stage performances, open-air stadium competitions and other outdoor scenes.
Conclusion
Through the reading of this article, I believe you can probably understand the difference between P3 LED display and P5 LED display, if you still have some doubts, then you can consult with JYLED, they will provide you with professional services.
