However, the LED backlighting that LCD displays use can flicker (normally at the mains frequency of 50/60Hz).
the older florescent backlight always flickered but the LED need not flicker just like the front light on E InK need not flicker. It may, however, depending on how dimming is done but it is not locked to the power line so it is usually much faster.
