Do LED monitors get weak over time, the brightness gets dim?

Or is the picturer better on my laptop just because it's smaller, 15.9",
and the stand-alone monitor for the desktop is 20"?

I've only noticed a problem since I've been watching some movies from
the 40's with night scenes. 

The ACER laptop is about 9 years old, and the Dell monitor I bought
maybe 10 years ago, used, at a hamfest, so I don't know how old it is**,
I have had the brightness turned all the way up from when I got it, and
it seems fine most of the time. 

The new-to-me (3 or 4 years old) Dell laptop gives a clearly better
picture. 

I don't mind buying a new one, but only if the picture is likely to be
better. 

If I do get a new monitor, would I like a bigger one, bigger than 20
even though I sit only 3 feet from the screen? 


**I can't find the model number.  Device Manager just calls it generic.
PCinfo32 only says about the graphics card.
