As previously mentioned, LG uses white OLED with rgb filters. That should eliminate the low efficiency of others OLED colors, which is now almost a moot point. I have not found specific data on the life of LG's white OLED material. The main problem now being worked on is how to improve the brightness of OLED to allow OLED to display HDR (high dynamic range) for the new 4K spec. Currently LCD still excels in brightness because it is non-emissive and the LED backlighting can be driven to higher levels. OLED is emissive and creates its own light without the need for backlighting. An individual OLED pixel can be turned on and off 100% allowing "infinite" contrast.

Just saw this this morning from FLATPANELHD blog. The Vice President of LG citation.
"Ever since OLED was a research project, the lifespan of the organic material has been debated. There is no reason to worry, says LG. The latest generation of OLED TVs now has a lifespan of 100,000 hours, according to a report by Korea Times. OLED lifespan has tripled Ever since Kodak started working on OLED in the 70’s, longevity has been a topic. The organic material inside the pixels that helps create light and colors decays over time. LG is the only manufacturer capable of mass-producing OLED TVs and since the company launched the first OLED TVs it has used a special type of white OLED sub-pixels that passes light through filters. The company has repeatedly said that this method can lower production costs and increase longevity. We now have some numbers. - "When we first started manufacturing OLED TVs in 2013, their lifespan was some 36,000 hours," said Lee Byung-chul, Vice president for LG Electronics to Korea Times and continued; "technological development has extended it to 100,000 hours now. This is equal to 30 years, if a user watches our OLED TV for 10 hours a day." A lifespan of 100,000 hours, if correct, appears to refute the rumors that especially LG’s local neighbor likes to spread. Samsung has reportedly given up on mass-producing OLED TVs and has cited longevity as one of the reasons. Samsung will instead focus on so-called QLED TVs. For comparison the half-life for the backlight in LCD TVs is typically rated at around 60-70,000 hours. However, most often components fail before the backlight dies out."

What I'd really like to know is people's opinions on OLED TV's vs. CRT TV's. I'm really amazed by the picture quality of OLED display technology.

Here in England the advantage of flat screen TV's over CTR ones is the lack of flicker, the 50 hertz frame flicker is very noticeable when I see the odd CRT sets running (getting vary rare nowadays) of course no flicker with flat with flat screens. I don't remember the 60 hertz CRT TV's flickering like they do/did here when I was in the USA & Bahama's. My Canadian cousin moaned about the 50 hertz flicker every time he came to visit..

I hope someday they make an OLED TV under 50" diag. 46" wound be perfect for the size of my living room. Eventually my Sony 40" LCD 2008 mfg with nearly 50,000 hours on it is going to bite the dust. I'd like to replace it with OLED.
Maybe they will someday, when the manufacturing costs come down like LCDs have done. I do have a 25" Sony CRT set in the bedroom I use nightly, and to remember the "olden" days. 1995 mfg. Get far enough away from it so the scan lines aren't visible and it looks great! Last edited by Ed in Tx; 07-30-2016 at 10:34 AM. |

My pioneer elite plasma absolutely blows any crt out of the water. Sure CRT's are nice and all, deeper colors and better reliability, but I've never seen anything more clear, crisp and colorful than my pioneer elite. These were about $10,000 back when they were new, plasma TV was a luxury then. I've just recently had to replace a board (due to a power surge 6 years after it was bought. Most LED sets last at least 2 years and aren't as colorful, clear and reliable as my roundie sets.

Plasma is as close to a thin CRT functionality wise as you can get so it makes sense that it can rival it.
