LG is now coming with its next generation of TV panels called OLED EX. These new panels can output up to 30% more brightness and reducing the size of the bezels needed around a TV. OLED EX Based on a 65-inch TV, the bezel has been reduced from 6mm down to 4mm thin. The “EX” bit comes from “Evolution” and “Expertise” which is a cute abbreviation for LG, however apart from advertising communicate what does it actually imply?
In simplest terms, the primary benefit of OLED is that each individual pixel can be shut off independently, enabling deep, inky blacks and contrast too high to measure by standard means. But OLED displays are generally less bright than their LED counterparts. The improvements come from deuterium, one of the two stable isotopes of hydrogen. Deuterium lets the display emit brighter light than using hydrogen with higher efficiency over time. The other half of OLED EX is a ‘personalized algorithm’ developed by LG Display that predicts the power usage of individual pixels and can improve the power efficiency of the panels’ output.
