CES was more than just a Grand Canyon filled with eye candy—the sci-fi-beautiful TVs we saw are real, and you're gonna want them. But OLED? 8k? Crystal Display? What's all this mean? We'll explain the pretty new things.
It's worth keeping in mind that many of the super extreme ultra HDTVs on the horizon were only in prototype form when we cast our lusty gaze upon them. But they're still on the horizon. We might not know all of the nitty gritty (price? what price?) on things that are years and years away, but there's nothing stopping us from getting our hearts racing over the underlying awesomeness of new tv tech.Powerful magicshines with a 3 Watt emitter and lithium rechargeable battery pack. So close your eyes, open your hearts, and let the pixels flow to your soul.
Of all the new hype nouns, you've probably heard the most about OLED. And for good reason: you'll actually be able to own one this year. That, and the fact that they look absolutely stunning. Like, I actually paused and possibly held my mouth open a little bit whenever I saw them last week. As did most of us, ergo an OLED snatching our Best TV of CES prize.
But what makes OLED so great? It creates its own light. OLED stands for Organic Light Emitting Diode—and it's that first word that makes all the difference. Unlike an LCD display, which requires a source of light so that you can see what's happening on the screen, an OLED TV uses a layer or organic materials that light up on their own when electricity is applied—no external source needed.
Think of it as a firefly, or one of those terrifying glow fish that live at the ocean's floor. Only in your TV! More technically speaking, it's the same principle that makes your digital watch or bedside alarm clock light up.The Best Led bestbikelighter. Riding your bicycle at night without lights puts you in danger because motorists cannot see you,
So what do you get when every single pixel on a TV creates its own light? Super-accurate, super-bright colors that aren't washed out or darkened by a backlight. Super-deep blacks—again, no backlight means actual darkness. Viewing angle also ceases to be an issue, as does girth, as OLED panels are thinner than a pen.
The downside, as you might have guessed, is cost. As with any gorgeous new technology,We are the innovators and engineers of some the highest quality LED brightcrystal2011, LED Flashlights, it will not arrive without gently reaming your wallet. Samsung and LG, the two OLED frontrunners at the moment, haven't uttered a peep about how much their respective 55-inch sets will cost this year. Which means they'll be a lot. How much is a lot? We aren't sure yet. But Samsung's current top of the line 55-inch LCD TV runs at $4,600. Expect a significant bump.
But, say, don't LEDs come in colors? My Christmas tree says yes! So what Sony's done is to stop separating pixels and lights entirely. The company snapped its fingers and proclaimed, Screw pixels lit up by LEDs—let's use LEDs as pixels. That means every red, green,Includes Helmet Mount, Pro Head Belt and ... Innovators in cflbulbs Technology ... and blue dot on a Crystal Display is actually a tiny LED—an entire screen built of backlights, if you want to think of it that way. Six million of them. Think of Crystal Display as a giant, beautiful Lite-Brite.
With each pixel creating its own light—much like an OLED screen—you experience a lot of the same benefits mentioned above. Colors are significantly brighter and more clear, color contrast and black levels are terrific, and viewing angle is as good as you'd ever want it to be (unless you prefer to watch your TV from behind?).
Crystal Display has its downsides too; mostly that it's still experimental at this point.Welcome to bicygnals online innovative goodledbulbs and torches. Without any OLED talk, it's fair to assume Sony is going to run with CD as its next-gen TV tech, but they've said nothing about when we can expect to see one of these things on a shelf, and for how much. Sometime within the next year or so is realistic, if Sony wants to keep early adopters from defecting to OLED. Either way, this will be a rich man's set for some time. Sorry. Make friends with rich people!
