**New for 2016. LG Electronic’s OLED55E6P 55-inch Flat 4K OLED TV is LG’s top-rated 55-inch 4K Ultra HD TV. 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 (0.1 microseconds refresh). There are no backlights as each pixel is self illuminating. LG is the leader in OLED TVs. Not only is this an OLED TV, but also a 4K Ultra HD TV with over 8 million pixels of resolution. This is four times the resolution of Full HD, giving you a stunning sharp picture. The LG OLED55E6P is a 3D TV and comes with 2 pairs of passive 3D Glasses. Most TVs have a 3 color pixel.
