OLED

This is sort of the next generation of LCD. So far only Sony has unveiled a TV using this technology, release in December in Japan. OLED stands for organic light-emitting diode. Unlike LCD, whose pixels require a backlight layer, OLED pixels provide their own light through electrophosphorescence – so the device is thinner and power efficient. The end image has sharper colors and a true black level (and not the dark gray that LCD features). Take our word for it: it will be the future of flat-panels.

Model example: Sony XEL-1 (11”)

Strong points

  • Thinner than plasma and LCD televisions.
  • True black level and sharper colors than LCD.
  • Big viewing angle.
  • Cheaper manufacturing cost than the LCD active matrix (TFT).

Weak point

  • Organic elements have a small lifetime (14,000 hours).
