Sony’s 0.3mm-thick OLED Display is Insane
Ummmm, for real? If we didn’t see photos of this thing with our own eyes, we would’ve called shenanigans faster than Madonna can jump on a genre bandwagon. Remember the 3mm XEL-1 OLED display that Sony showed off late last year? Yeah, that thing is a fatty compared to this puppy. How thin is the latest OLED display showcased by Sony? 0.3mm… As in 0.0118 inches! Not many details are available for this wonder of a display, but we do know that the resolution is 960 x 540 pixels and the picture is surprisingly crisp. Imagine the range of applications that a high-quality display could have with a thickness of less than 1mm. As far as when we might see a display like this come to market, Sony said that it could easily happen within two to three years.
xbr56? lol
Does Sony make the panel themselves is or somebody else doing that for them?
.3mm = .0118in
3mm = .118in
HOLY CRAP!
that’s incredible.
now what’s the retail price. anyway, i just can’t get over that. i want one. bad.
Thanks Ben, corrected. Stupid math…
cool to see what were gonna be using in the future
That is the most insane tv I’ve ever seen.
this will make pretty good computer screen, and pretty space saving
enhanced resolution makes viewing spreadsheet alot easier
it’s also great for games (way faster response) and movie (ABSOLUTE contrast)
not only will this be great for TV, but they might produce these for there ericsson models too!
I gather OLED doesn’t get hot, so even today’s thinnest LCDs (and plazzys, gasp) will look clunky vs. anything OLED. And no more whirl of the fans you plazzy lovers.
We’ve been promised OLED based displays for some time now, but they haven’t materialized. I think Sony’s 2-3 year timeframe is probably a best case scenario. From what I’ve read, it is currently too expensive to mass produce these displays in usable sizes. There have been some breakthroughs by GE in this area though, so this could change soon.
Just my $.02
WOW!!! this is crazy!!!!!!!!!!!! WE can finally have tv wallpaper!..lol..this is very cool…and i hope its sooner than 2-3 years!
