Samsung’s 40-inch OLED TV

[DieHard83x]

Samsung has announced in world premiere their latest OLED screen of 40", a resolution of 1280x800 (WXGA), a contrast ratio of 5000:1 and a very limited thickness.

A prototype 40-inch single-sheet OLED panel that, when paired with their field emission display technology, could mean supper-skinny high-resolution TVs in the near future. A few months ago they busted out a 21-inch screen capable of high definition resolutions (1920 x 1080 pixels), whereas the new 2.2cm thick 40-incher will do 1280 x 800 pixels at a screen brightness of 600 nits and a contrast ratio of 5000:1.

damn, that's sweet. Amazing specs!!

P.S. I would suggest not "hotlinking" those pics directly from that site. it's considered bandwidth stealing. No need to put up pics when the link is right there. just a heads up

Does anyone know when these will hit the shelves? I did some searching and the only thing I could find is that more information should be coming out sometime this week. There is something going on in Boston from the 24th-27th.

Hah, I just got what you were talking about.

I think that they'll have higher resolution when they have a final release of the 40" OLED. The smaller 20" they demo'd had a higher native resolution than the 40". I think that they just wanted to be the first in the game to have a single panel 40".

Picture definitely is tight. Every time I settle on a screen to buy, a new model keeps pooping up in the last few weeks. I think I found the Shangri La of screens. I wonder if you could make that thing flex like a blanket.
