At CeBIT, display manufacturer Samsung is showing OLED TVs with a screen diagonal of 31inch; and 14-inch. One of the first thing that catches your eye, quite literally, is the excellent colour rendition.

OLEDs have the potential to make exciting TVs (or computer displays). OLED are bright, ulta-thin, low power, and they show beautiful pictures. Sony will start selling OLED TVs in December 2007. But these will be small and pricey. The main issue is the lifetime (OLED displays degrade after a certain time), and also production cost are still high (Although theoretically OLEDs may become cheaper than LCD).

Samsung Electronics has introduced its first handset model equipped with Samsung SDI’s 2.2-inch active-matrix organic light emitting diode (AM OLED) panel at a retail price of 599,000 won.
