Sony OLED TV KDL-ZX at CES 2010?

Long age, television sets only produced black and white images and people were fine with that. Then the color television sets came out and suddenly everybody wanted them. After some years, people started imagining. Flat screen televisions came to be and of course the people clamoured for them. Today LCD and plasma sets are at the top of the television product chain. Manufacturers make bigger and better versions of these latest models in a bid to produce the best television set. But soon, at the CES 2010, this too will become a thing of the past, (according to rumors) replaced by an even better model: the 27” Sony KDL-ZX Series OLED TV.

So what can the new 27” Sony KDL-ZX Series OLED TV offer that the latest LCD or plasma television cannot?

Just like how the color television outdid its predecessor the black and white television by offering something that the older model did not have, the new OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) television from Sony should have something to daze and dazzle the buying market – and it does. Well for starters, the 27” model of the OLED television only measures 10 millimeters from front to back. That is insanely thin and it beats the heck out of even the thinnest of LCD displays. Other than almost being paper thin, this newer model also boasts of a 1, 000, 0000: 1 contrast ratio.

So what does this ratio mean? It means that the OLED display boasts outstanding brightness, exceptionally excellent color reproduction and a lightning quick response time. Also, the latest OLED TV will have full High Definition 1920x1080 pixels. What this means is that compared to LCD displays, OLED displays are capable of producing clearer, sharper, crisper images. The OLED display can also be utilized for a variety of applications.

With all these things in mind, you would think the OLED TV would use more electricity than the normal LCD or plasma television. But on the contrary, it uses even less energy than a normal LCD or plasma television set. The OLED screen utilizes a display surface which functions through organic compounds which produce light when subjected to electricity. Backlighting is not required thus it requires less power to operate. This independence from backlighting lowers the power consumption to approximately 40% per panel square inch.

No doubt these specs would leave some of you drooling over the prospect of having one. If so then you can salivate some more when Sony reveals this baby to the public at the Consumer Electronics Show 2010 (CES) in Las Vegas this coming January.
