Let me try. vs Let me try it.

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in slightly different contexts. 'Let me try.' is a more general statement where the speaker is expressing a willingness to attempt something, while 'Let me try it.' is specifying what the speaker wants to try. The choice between the two depends on whether the speaker wants to leave the action unspecified or if they are referring to a specific task.
