Difference between backing up to a file and a logical backup device?

What's is the between backing up a database to a file and a logical backup device?

If I point the logical backup device to a file on the filesystem, it's same as backing up to a file? isn't?

Thanks

Yep, that is right, the backup device just allows you to change the underlying target for the backup without changing the backup jobs themselves.
