Yes, but hat does not make them LED phones, and true LED phones are not basically the same as LCD phones. You are perhaps misled by unscrupulous TV manufacturers that mislabel LCD TV's backlit by LEDs as "LED TV".
Each sub-pixel of an AMOLED phone is an individual LED. There is no backlight. But if it is too bright, it will hace all the dark room reading problems of an LCD phone or tablet.
