LED walls are widely seen at stages, concerts, events, shopping malls, convention halls, conference rooms due to their versatility for both indoor and outdoor applications. Since LED wall is a joint name of LED display walls of different types and size, the cost of an LED wall can vary in accordance with a lot of factors, such as LED quality, pixel pitch, size, and other accessories used to make it run. Here in this article, we’ll discuss the some main influential factors that affect the costs of LED walls.
An LED wall, also known as an LED display wall or LED video wall, is a large-scale
display system composed of multiple LED panels seamlessly tiled together to create a single cohesive screen. LED walls are designed to deliver high-resolution visuals with exceptional brightness and color reproduction. They are commonly used in various indoor and outdoor settings for digital signage, advertising, entertainment, presentations, and other applications requiring large-format displays. LED walls offer several advantages, including flexibility in size and shape, superior image quality, dynamic content capabilities, and the ability to capture audience attention with vibrant and engaging visuals. LED walls have become increasingly popular due to advancements in LED technology, allowing for thinner panels, higher pixel densities, and improved energy efficiency. They have revolutionized the way information and content are presented, providing immersive and impactful visual experiences in a wide range of settings.
A lot of factors can affect the costs of LED walls, such as their sizes, the quality of the LED panels, and some other additional features .
It’s understandable that larger LED walls cost higher than smaller ones if they’re composed by LED panels with similar or the same features and qualities. Large LED walls need more LED panels, and of course, more other additional components to run the screen.
LED panels are the basic units of an LED wall. An LED panel is made of different LEDs, in different pixel pitches, and can have different features such as refresh rate.
2-1. LEDs
LEDs are the pixels on an LED panel. They’re the deciding element of the performance of an LED panel, including the pixel pitch, color accuracy, brightness, contrast ratio, etc. So LEDs affect the cost of an LED panel greatly. For example, mini and micro LEDs are usually used for fine pitch LED walls, which have much higher resolution and better image qualities than other types of LED walls. Generally, fine pitch LED walls cost much higher than those LED walls with lower resolution; if you’re using an outdoor LED wall with LEDs having higher brightness, it will cost more than LED walls using lower brightness LEDs.

2-2. Refresh rate
LED panels are designed with different refresh rates for different usages. LED panels usually come with a refresh rate of 1920Hz. But if you want upgrade the refresh rate to 3800Hz or even higher, the cost will increase accordingly.
2-3. Power supplies and receiving cards
LED wall manufacturers may used different power supplies or receiving cards inside an LED panel. This will also affect the total cost of an LED wall, since power supplies and receiving cards from different suppliers (or brand) vary in quality and stability. For example, some manufacturers prefer receiving cards from Novastar, which are more expensive than those ones from smaller factories.
2-4. Front accessibility
If an LED panel offers front accessibility for maintenance or replacement, the cost will certainly go higher than those ones can be only maintained from the rear.
2-5. Additional features
Some LED panels may integrated additional features, such as interactive functions to react to the users. This will also increase the price of an LED panel since sensors for interactive features are added into the panels.
2-6. Service life
Usually, the manufacturers will state the service life of their LED panels. The longer their service life are, the higher requirements for the material and production, and also more strict QC standard are necessary. This also increases the overall costs of LED panels.
