I think OLED does have the best cards to compete against LCD technology. Plasma is dead. So many companies set there focus to OLED. Here are 3 reasons why OLED is the NR1!
1.That statement might sound crazy when you consider the price of the Sony XEL-1, but OLED TVs are much easier - and therefore cheaper - to make than their LCD TV equivalents. That because OLEDs can be made from polymers that glow when light is passed through them - eliminating the need for fluorescent tube backlights and other components.
2. OLED TVs can be super-slim
Getting rid of fluorescent tube backlights enables OLED TVs to skinnier that any TVs we've seen before - the XEL-1, for example, is just 3mm thin. Samsung, Sony and others showed off their super-slim prototype as IFA 2008 last August. We're expecting to see more real world examples of sets you can actually buy at CES 2009.
3. OLED TV promises better quality pictures
Because individual pixels in an OLED TV array only light when a current is passed through them, they have much a higher contrast ratio than either of their LCD TV or plasma rivals - black is really black. OLED TVs are also remarkable for their wide viewing angles and complete lack of motion blur or journey - picture quality problems that continue to bedevil its rivals - and also promise greater colour accuracy.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
