    A led tv is just a method of how the lcd is lit ie led backlight, the tft is lit by a florescent tube, thats the only difference

    a led monitor can be small in width due to not needing extra space of a florescent tube and is cheaper to run by can be expect a higher premium for the privileged

    I think the other monitor is TFT, is a slimline BenQ one from Ebuyer, or would it be LCd?
