I am sold on the LED.... I know you can do dots on LCD but the brightness in the LED is fantastic.

I love all my games in LED. Viewing angle is much better , brightness and fit and finish are way better all around

I can’t stand the mounting of the LCD or the fact it only uses a portion of the screen. Also when you look at led LCD on an angle in a line up it totally washes out to the point you cannot see it.

On the other hand the LED has a factory fresh finish and looks like it should be there and not like a mod

Quoted from Lostcause:

I have 10 LCD’s and 2 LED’s one is CV. LCD just looks better to me.

I have 10 LEDs and zero LCDs after owning one.

Everyone defiantly has personal preference on this one. Cant go wrong either way

Quoted from TheLaw:

led cheaper should be in there

and Gilligan

And better fit and finish

Quoted from Codeman00:

It doesn't fix my issue but I'm happy to hear that everyone is on the same side in regards to this not being normal or correct. I don't have a lot of experience with the LED screens so I wasn't sure if what I was seeing was something that was odd or normal. I just emailed ColorDMD, I'll see what they say and report back.
Update: ColorDMD said they have no experience with the glare guard and I'm on my own.
So just to confirm, a glare guard is not needed for LCD?

I don’t use a glare guard on any of my LEDs
