What exactly is Mini-LED? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Not the most tech savvy person so please bear with me.

What exactly is it? What's the difference between it and something like FALD? Are they the same and it's just different marketing or are they actually different? How is there different versions of it like an IPS or a VA? How does that work? How does it compare to something like OLED or QLED?

Assuming I'm not mistaken, doesn't QLED actually rely on quantum effects to produce color?

[A 'proper' quantum light-emitting diode element emits its own light – the clue is in the name.

However, Samsung's latest TVs use a separate LCD backlight (often an edge-lit backlight, at that) just like any other LED-LCD TV. So the QLED moniker is more about branding than a truly 'quantum leap' for TV panel technology](https://www.techradar.com/news/samsung-qled-samsungs-latest-television-acronym-explained)
