Samsung has followed in LG's footsteps in unveiling a 55-inch OLED TV for the masses.
Differentiating the TV is its "Super OLED" panel which "has self-emitting RGB sub-pixels and is faster than LED," says the company. OLED panels will provide "accurate color reproduction and 'true-to-life picture quality,'" which was certainly visible today, say spectators.
The OLED display will "virtually eliminate motion blur," as well, notes Samsung.
Furthermore, the TV will include Samsung's newly introduced "Smart Interaction" technology, which includes an integrated webcam and two mics for motion and voice control. For example, you can turn on/off the TV, raise the volume, use some apps, facial recognition and even search via the built-in browser using the interface.
The TV will be powered by a dual-core processor.
Samsung says the OLED will be available in the second half of the year. The company wouldn't say, but expect a $10,000 price tag.
