LCD displays have low energy requirements and are generally easy to read. TFT is a type of LCD. Compared to other types of LCDs, TFTs feature excellent image quality and response time (using somewhat more energy), and are generally found in more expensive models. Monochrome (black & white) LCDs usually have both a backlight as well as a reflective backing, allowing them to be equally usable in both bright light as well as complete darkness.
