CES 2012 – praise for Samsung’s and LG’s OLED TVs
Jan 13th
So, OLED was the most discussed tech trend on CES . But the OLED TVs also got a lot of praise from reviewers and consumers – who were amazed to see the panel’s thinness, the contrast, the colors and the fast refresh rates. In short – the image on Samsung’s and LG’s OLED TVs is amazing! Samsung Super OLED TV CNET gave LG’s OLED TV the “Best of CES” award: “The winning LG measures just 4mm in depth…and boasts a bezel around the screen just 1mm wide. It’s basically all gorgeous picture… CES is a TV-centric show, OLED is potentially the best TV technology ever, and CNET editors agreed that 2012 would be the year of the organic diode”. CNET actually says that it’s hard to say which is the better OLED TV – the Samsung or the LG one, but LG seems to be more of a finished product, so they gave the award to LG. read more

"Super OLED TVs" coming soon from Samsung?
Jan 7th
CES 2012 will start on Monday, but some companies have already put up some banners announcing new products. Check out this interesting one from Samsung – promising a Super OLED TV: It was already reported that Samsung plans to show 55″ OLED TV panels at CES , so this isn’t a surprise. It’s interesting to hear of Samsung’s new OLED TV branding – Super OLED, an Ultimate TV. I guess Samsung will focus on the fact that they are using ‘True OLED’ RGB subpixels, as opposed to LG Display’s white subpixels with color filters architecture (WOLED-CF). Samsung’s design theoretically means better quality image and a more efficient display, while LGD’s design should enable them to manufacture the TVs on the cheap. read more

Samsung adds a new 7" AMOLED product
Jan 2nd
Samsung added a new AMOLED product to their web site – a 7″ WSVGA (600×1024) AMOLED display, aimed towards tablets. Interestingly this new panel is quite bright – 400 nits. The 7.7″ AMOLED (used in the upcoming Tab 7.7 ) is only 250 nits bright. We do not know of any product that uses this display yet – the first one will probably be a Samsung made tablet. Or perhaps this will be used in Google’s rumored high-end Tablet ? Hopefully one of these will be revealed in CES 2012 soon… read more

Other specs include Android v2.3, Dual-core 1.4 Ghz processor, HSPA+ radio, 16GB to 64GB internal storage and a microSD slot, Wi-Fi, GPS and two cameras (3MP and 2MP).

Samsung and LG to introduce 55" OLED TVs at CES 2012, products shipping in July 2011
Nov 21st
According to reports both Samsung and LG Display plan to introduce 55″ OLED TVs at CES 2012 (January 10). This is not surprising as this was announced before . According to the new reports, both companies want to introduce the products before the 2012 Olympics (which is a big event towards which many consumers buy a new TV) – which means we can expect those OLED TVs shipping at around July 2011. LG OLED TV prototype The same reports re-iterates the old rumors regarding an Apple OLED TV . I’m still skeptical on this because in 2012 OLED TV capacity will be low (LG for example says it will be able to produce around 30,000 panels per month ) – not enough for Apple. Samsung will also be producing their large panels in a pilot line and will not be able to mass produce these panels. read more
