Bill and I are always looking at new TVs. We love to see what's on the market, and we love to see all the new products out there. That is why I was incredibly excited to attend a LG demo here in Chicago for their new OLED TVs. Now, I know my first question was – what's OLED? OLED stands for Organic Light Emitting Diode (say that ten times fast!) which describes the material that creates the unique light source in these next-generation TVs.
Now, why do you want one of these amazing TVs? OLED TV is a major breakthrough in display technology that offers stunning picture quality, colors that are more accurate than ever before, and more vibrant images that really pop. For those seeking the highest level of contrast and color performance, whether it's for watching Monday Night Football or your favorite sitcom, no other TV can compete with the unprecedented contrast and stunning color of LG's OLED TV.
You can see that the on screen images pop. (Photo taken with my iphone 6 at the demo. The photos I'm using in this post are not stock images — they are what I saw with my own 2 eyes!) I also loved that they showed the Packers for this portion of the demo. (For those who don't know, even though I live in Chicago, I am originally from Green Bay, WI. Yes, I am still a Packer fan. Yes, my house gets very interesting during football season.)
I know I was wondering how this compares to a regular LED tvs.
The middle TV here is the OLED. Could you tell? I know I could. I was literally amazed by the difference.
Now, by eliminating the needs for a backlight, OLED offers an incomparable picture quality and design potential to conventional LCD(LED) TVs. You can literally see the difference.
I'm not the only one who likes these tvs! LG OLED TV has been the winner of EISA (European Imaging and Sound Association) Award for 3 consecutive years! LG OLED TV was also voted as the King of HDTV in 2014 HDTV Shooutout, a renowned HDTV competition event hosted by Value Electronics in Scarsdale, New York. LG OLED TV was described as ‘The Best.Picture.Ever’ by David Katzmaier, a star reviewer for TV at CNET.
We also got to check out the 65” 4K OLED TV (EC9700 model) as well! This model has not hit the market yet and I was able to get an exclusive preview of this model without having to go to a major consumer electronics tradeshow! It was amazing. I want this TV. I must have this TV.
The visuals from this TV were literally breathtaking. It is also a “smart” tv, so it has all the features that I love on it without having to hook up 47 other devices. I also loved how thin it is!
It's amazing how you can get all that goodness in such a thin package! It literally is about 4 credit cards stacked thick!
LG was the first to introduce OLED TVs in the United States and is the unrivaled leader in delivering this technology. With a quantum jump in OLED technology, LG has can finally offer this state-of-the-art TV at a much more available price to its customers In 2014-2015, LG is broadening its OLED assortment with FOUR new series and FOUR OLED TVs overall, with 55-, 65- and 77-inch class sizes. What size TV would you like your living room (or basement or man cave)?
Oh, man! I want one of those two. I can’t believe how thin they made it.
I WANT ONE SOOOO BADLY! LOL
We have been discussing getting a smart tv for out living room but still undecided. I love how thin this one is!
I want one of those tv’s, too! They sound awesome.
Oh, look what you’ve done now! I want one, too!
Wow! I had no idea there was even such a thing as OLED! We just got a TV and I have no idea what all the special stuff is but we definitely need to upgrade now! lol! Oh my goodness!
I think it’s time for a new tv.
We have seen these and yes they look AWESOME! Would love to have one!
Ohhh… now I want one of those for Christmas too. Looks amazing. – Katy
my husband wants to get a new TV, I can not show him this post, it is amazing how clear it is.
My hubby would love one of these. He is such a TV nut.
I can see why you want one. Now I want one, too!
Our living room TV is almost 6 years old, and my husband is dying for a new one. I usually don’t see a difference between the screens of various TVs, but I can definitely see a different in the OLED TV above! Now I’m ready to replace ours too!!
Uh-Oh, I guess my husband will be taking me to see this new technology soon as we are in the market for a new TV and he is all about the new technology!
We have seen commercials for TV’s like this. We figure in a few years when the prices fall we can afford one.
Oh my…another TV hubby will need to have!!
Wow those are some nice crisp clean images – we plan on getting one soon ourselves. We have old style tube t.v.!
My husband was just telling me about these. We so want one!
I’m definitely going to be buying this kind of tv when I next need to replace one. The picture is unbelievable.
Oh wow, I would love to get one of these for Christmas too.
Somebody have a contact number for Santa? I need to tell him to bring me one of these too!
WOW – that’s some TV. Don’t show my husband, he will REALLY want one 🙂
I am so lame. I have, not quite a tube TV, but one of the first flat screens. And it is small. This TV is awesome. I’m going to go sit and cry and watch my sad tv now.

The graphics on that device are simply incredible.
We got to check these out too! I really would love to own one now too!
I want one, but not in the budget this year. Maybe next year 🙂
Wow, so thin! I desperately want one of these.
Now that is a beautiful TV!
These are the coolest TVs, maybe one day I can afford one lol
The OLED is beautiful! SUCH a difference from the other TVs it’s next to in that middle photo.
I’m not much of a TV person, but I’ll have to admit that these are nice TVs. Would be perfect for watching some of my favorite TV shows, such as The Walking Dead or Revenge. 🙂
My husband is begging for me to purchase this tv for him for Christmas this year!
I’ll take the 77 inch please! Looks like a great TV! They keep getting better and better!
LG has really nice products. I haven’t had one of their TVs that I can recall, but their phones are fabulous. I would definitely have one of their TVs, too.
My husband is always looking at new TV’s. He would love this one.
Oh wow! That is so thin! I still remember my floor tv that you’d set a plant on top. LED is the way to go. We have one and it is amazing!
I love the picture quality for sure but with my 5 kids I’m afraid of it falling over and breaking. Is there something to secure these? I do love my flatscreens though, last one I had got wet so it ended shortly 🙁 That BBQ picture is amazing.
Me too. WOW. I have been looking t new tvs
My husband would DIE if I got him that for Christmas! I am going to surprise him with a TV for Christmas and this one is in the running!
This is the first time hearing about that type of TV and wow, the picture looks great!
