The Ultimate gaming experience with LG
Attention gamers, have we got the latest TV technologies for you! Whether you’re an Xbox gamer, PlayStation fan or maybe you’re part of the Nintendo Switch gang, an OLED TV will transform how you game.
OLED is made famous by LG. You might have seen it around, or you’ve heard about it from a friend, perhaps even in the latest entertainment catalogue? If you’re interested yet unsure of what OLED is, then you’re in the right place!
– What is OLED?
OLED is short for ‘organic light emitting diode’. A TV with an OLED panel uses organic light emitting diodes to produce images that you see on screen. The diodes feature organic material that enables them to glow individually when they come into contact with an electrical charge.
When there’s no electrical charge, the diodes switch off and allows other diodes to shine brightly, displaying rich colours and deep blacks. With OLED, pictures appear so realistically real, it’s like you’re there.
– How does OLED compare to other TV technologies?
OLED technology is also powered by self-lighting pixels which combine to deliver deep blacks, rich colours and lifelike pictures. Aside from vividly brighter colours, OLED TVs do not need the use of backlighting. This means OLED TVs can be produced in a thin and lightweight design, compared to LCD TVs. Stunningly slim, OLED TVs will look great in your space. View our TV Buying Guide to view other available TV technologies.
