**New for 2014. LG Electronic’s 55EC9300 55-inch Curved OLED TV is one of LG’s best 55-inch TVs. An OLED TV gives you many advantages over LCD and LED TVs. The black levels of OLED TVs are the best of all screen technologies. The viewing angles are fantastic, with no loss of contrast. Another advantage is speed, which is important when viewing fast moving action. OLED is many times faster than LED and LCD displays. There are no backlights as each pixel is self illuminating. LG is the leader in OLED TVs. Prices have recently begun to drop on these panels, and we expect this technology to take hold in the coming years. Most TVs have a 3 color pixel. LG has added a fourth, a white sub-pixel to the conventional three colors (red, green and blue). This technology will enhance the color range and accuracy for more realistic colors. The Panel is superthin, only 0.17″ at its thinnest point. The curved screen will give you a more immersive viewing experience. The LG 55EC9300 is a 3D TV as well and comes with 4 pairs of passive 3D Glasses. It has Full HD 1080p (1920×1080) resolution.
