Sony XEL-1
Sony XEL-1 - The world's first OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TV.
It has a 3mm thin Organic Panel which uses individually lit organic pixels to create a brighter,more colourful picture that can be viewed from wide angles.
Their response time is blazing-fast when compared with pixels in current flat panel displays; and because they can be selectively turned off, deep blacks and dark scenes are displayed perfectly.
It also means that OLED TVs are 40% cheaper to run than equivalent sized LCD TVs.

Most people that see the XEL-1 are amazed by the picture quality and the great contrast. Obviously the small size is disappointing, but we have to remember that it's just the first OLED TV, and larger ones will follow soon. Displaysearch claims that the XEL-1 lifetime is only 17,000 hours (till the display is half as bright as a new one) - while Sony claims the real lifetime is 30,000.
