Sony Unveils Its LCD Killer

Sony OLED TV
If you're the type of person who likes to stay on top of the latest and greatest at all times, then by now you're definitely aware of the hype surrounding OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) displays. If you aren't, OLEDs use organic compounds to produce light similar to the way fireflies spark themselves up. It's widely believed the technology will in a few years supplant LCD, offering better color, wider viewing angles, higher contrast ratios, thinner form factors, lower power usage, and, theoretically, lower production costs.

Though resolution limits and shorter display lives have thus far relegated OLED to phones, media players, and cameras, Sony has stepped up and announced that it will be releasing an OLED TV to the public later this year. But before you get too excited, the set will measure only 11 inches and won't be HD (1024 x 600). And along with that stunted lifespan, it'll also likely come with a very high price tag.
