First LG 55-Inch OLED HDTV Revealed in FCC Database

Organic light emitting diode displays (OLED) are the newest pet project of display developers, and it is LG that is gaining attention, albeit indirectly, for creating a large-size panel of this sort.

The last OLED display we saw was Sony's 20.5-Inch monitor, which not only had an unusual aspect ratio (almost square) but also only displayed images in monochrome.

The screen that LG will soon launch, 55EM9700-UA, is a full color model, but its resolution probably isn't as high (Sony's odd invention is a 2560 x 2048 display).

The Federal Communications Commission database is where the product was found, as it has Blutooth and Wi-Fi modules as well.

Sales will start this month (December 2012) for a sum of around $10,000 / 7,736-10,000 Euro.

Assuming the Samsung-LG lawsuit doesn't get ugly, shipments should begin on time.
