What is the same
Both use an LED backlight behind an LCD panel. That is also why people use LED, LCD and TV to mean the same thing.
What QLED adds
A film of quantum dots that turns the light into purer colours. Reds and greens look richer and the picture is brighter.
LED vs LCD
An old LCD TV used tube lighting; an LED TV uses LEDs, so it is thinner and uses less electricity. Every TV sold today is an LED TV. See QLED TV, smart TV and QLED vs OLED.
