• QNED MiniLED TVs: By combining NanoCell and miniLED technology, our QNED MiniLED televisions deliver brilliantly bright colors and a higher contrast ratio for deeper blacks. It"s the ultimate in LCD TVs.

The gray uniformity of the C6 is very good, and better than any LCD TV. Dirty screen effect is not really an issue but still it is not perfect. On our test picture, you can notice some large vertical bands that are warmer than the rest of the screen.

Although this TV has a 120Hz panel, like other LG TVs it can"t accept a 120Hz signal. To activate chroma subsampling, change the input icon to "PC". This allows for clear text on all backgrounds. For higher bandwidth signals such as 4k @ 60Hz @ 4:4:4, activate "HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Color" on the HDMI port you are using in the "General" settings.

A rapid increase in liquid crystal display (LCD) panel prices has sharply narrowed the price gap between LCD panels and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays – the latter showing a downward trend due to increased supply. LCD panel prices have been climbing steeply since the first half of last year and rose to their highest level in almost four years this month, with Chinese manufacturers keeping LCD panel supply under control to shore up prices. By contrast, LG Display Co., the world"s largest OLED TV panel maker, has been ramping up OLED production to accelerate its penetration into the TV market.

According to market researcher Omdia on Apr. 19, the average price of the industry-standard 55-inch OLED panel dropped to $510 in the first quarter of this year, compared to $200 for LCD panels. Year on year, OLED panel prices declined 8.1% on average, whereas LCD panel prices spiked 73.9%. As a result, the price gap between the two has narrowed to $310 from $440.

Since the beginning of this month, LCD panel prices increased further to hit $206 on average, their highest level in three years and 10 months. It marked the first time for the average LCD panel price to top $200 since July 2017.

​"TV makers have a shortage of LCD panel supplies, with their inventory falling to 60% of normal levels," said KB Securities analyst Kim Dong-won. "They will also continue to suffer supply shortages of other major components such as glass substrates and ICs (integrated circuits) through the second half of this year."

Since South Korean panel makers led by Samsung Display Co. and LG Display pulled out of the low-margin TV LCD market from the second half of last year, Chinese manufacturers led by BOE and CSOT have filled the void. They had rapidly expanded their presence in the LCD market, flooding the market with cheaper products such as 10th-generation panels measuring 2,900mm in width and 3,100mm in length. Chinese manufacturers are now scaling back on LCD panel production to bolster margins.

In the OLED market, by contrast, LG Display has been stepping up supply. Since its Guangzhou plant started operation in the second half of last year, LG"s glass substrate production for OLED panels has more than doubled to 130,000 units a month from 60,000 units. That led to the price cut of OLED TV panels.

Thanks to the reduced price gap with LCD panels, Omdia forecasts that global shipments of OLED TVs will climb to 5.80 million units this year, up 59% from 3.65 million in 2020.

​LG Display plans to boost its OLED TV panel shipments to as many as 8 million units this year from 4.5 million units in 2020. Based on its shipment goal, analysts expect global OLED TV sales in 2021 to double from last year"s number, with more than a 10% share in global TV sales.

Demand for large-sized OLED panels is expected to be around 7.2 million units this year, but this will increase to 10 million units in 2023 and 12 million units in 2024, Yi said at an online conference on Friday.

LG Display is currently the sole supplier of large-sized OLED panels. Its current production capacity for the panels is around 10 million units a year. It has production lines in Paju, South Korea and Guangzhou, China.

Yi said LG Display may commence expansion of its capacity earlier than scheduled in light of this possibility. Last January, LG said it plans to start spending in expanding its Gen 10.5 (2940x3370mm) OLED production line in 2023. Yi expects LG Display to start investing no later than next year as it will take time to reach the production yield rate in a Gen 10.5 line, since the Gen 10.5 will be the 1st of its kind. Yi demand forecast is based on those from LG Electronics, Sony and other of LGD’s OLED panel customers.

Should the reports be true that Samsung Electronics will procure large-sized OLED panels from LG Display, the shortage would be pushed up by a year, he noted. In this scenario, LG Display will need to start expanding its capacity this year. The UBI Research CEO said that 1.8m large-sized OLED panels were shipped in Q221, an 186% Y/Y and a 13% increase sequentially.

There are various panel technologies. Each has its own specific features - viewing angles, color reproduction, response time, brightness/contrast, production cost, etc. The image quality depends directly on the type of the display panel used.OLED

The most widely used panels are those with 6, 8, and 10 bits for each of the RGB components of the pixel. They provide 18-, 24-, and 30-bit color, respectively.10 bits

Frame Rate Control (FRC) is a method, which allows the pixels to show more color tones. With quick cyclic switching between different color tones, an illusion for a new intermediate color tone is created. For example, by using FRC, a 6-bit display panel is able to show 16.7 millioin colors, which are typical for 8-bit display panels, and not the standard 262200 colors, instead. There are different FRC algorithms.No

The maximum number of colors, which the display is able to reproduce, depends on the type of the panel in use and color enhancing technologies like FRC.1073741824 colors

A slump in TV sales has seen LG Display post record losses after the company struggled to offset the effects of slowing consumer demand. LG Display is the part of LG that makes screen panels, and it"s the sole supplier of standard OLED panels to other TV manufacturers – nearly all of the best OLED TVs use its displays, except those that use QD-OLED (made by Samsung Electronics).

The company is the world’s largest provider of OLED panels while also one of the largest for LCD display manufacture, and has been hit hard by declining prices for both types of panels.

Crucially, this week’s financial report stressed that demand for premium OLED panels and TVs had dropped to an "unprecedented level", with sales particularly low in Europe.

LG Display wasn"t very forthcoming with cheaper OLED panels in 2022, which meant that the budget OLED TV market was limited to the LG A2 and Philips OLED707. Vizio and Hisense both didn"t offer new cheap OLED models in 2022, for example.

Back in late August, LG announced the availability of its first flat-screen OLED TV series. It was a long time coming: While the company has had some beautiful curved OLED sets in the market for a couple of years now, deep-pocketed videophiles had a long wait for the flat version. It took a lot less time, fortunately, for that set to take a dramatic price drop. In fact, a flagship OLED TV now costs less than some flagship LCDs, which is a little bit nuts, because OLED TVs are basically perfect.

Before you start scrounging for couch change, know that these are still at the very top end of the market. They"re closing in fast on "normal" TV pricing range, though. While the 55-inch EF9500 debuted at $5,500 just six weeks ago, a $1,500 price cut and a $1,000 instant rebate means you can now take it home for a mere $3,000. The 65-incher now costs $5,000, down from $7,000. Keep in mind, too, that the company"s first OLED panel debuted at $15,000 just a couple of years ago.

So after a whole lot of waiting for OLED to get cheaper and flatter, we now live in bizarro world. Not only are 4K TVs affordable, but OLED 4K TVs are affordable. In fact, OLED is now even cheaper than competing panel technologies—competing technologies that were developed to create a cheaper alternative to OLED. It"s like a pricing scheme compliments of M.C. Escher.

Samsung Electronics and LG Display’s negotiations over the price of TV OLED panels that the latter will supply are hitting a snag due to the parties failing to agree on an appropriate unit price, TheElec has learned.

According to sources, LG Display has offered to supply the panels at a price lower than the one it gives to affiliate LG Electronics. But Samsung Electronics is requesting further price cuts. The pair has so far failed to reach a final agreement, the sources said.

LG Electronics is offering OLED panels for a 65-inch TV at mid-US$600. This is around 10% cheaper than US$750 LG Display sells the same panel to LG Electronics.

For Samsung, buying the panels cheaper by US$150 will allow it to reduce the sales price of its 65-inch OLED TV by US$450. Currently, LG Electronics sells its 65-inch OLED TV for around US$1,800 to US$2,800 at Bestbuy in the US.

Meanwhile, during the negotiations, Samsung also told LG Display that it wants to procure their entry-level TV OLED panels, which they already supply to LG Electronics, as well.

LG Display grades its TV OLED panels by three levels: R, P and M. LG Electronics procures all three tiers and has a wide range of OLED TVs. Sony, which also buys OLED panels from LG Display, usually only buys the highest tier ones, and offers OLED TVs as a premium product.

It is already planning to offer its Neo QLED TV as its highest consumer premium TV in 2022. Neo QLED TV is a liquid crystal display (LCD) TV with MiniLED backlighting.

As Samsung is expected to buy in bulk of up to around 2 million units of OLED panels, it is using this buying power to pressure LG Display to cut unit prices.

Also, having Samsung push OLED TV will be beneficial for LG Display as it may cause the TV market to shift towards OLED TV from LCD TV at a faster pace.

If Samsung succeeds in procuring OLED panels from LG Display, which uses White OLED technology, at the price it wants, it can pressure Samsung Display to offer its QD-OLED panels at a similar price or at least demand discounts.

Samsung Electronics is close to ordering millions of OLED TV panels from LG Display, according to new reports from MTN, ETNews,and Seoul Economic Daily. Officials reportedly met recently to agree to the deal, which would see 1 million panels supplied to Samsung in the second half of this year, rising to 4 million panels next year. If the deal is finalized, it would be the first time Samsung has bought OLED panels from its South Korean rival and market leader. TVs with LG’s OLED panels consistently rate amongst the best in professional reviews.

Samsung exited the OLED TV market over half a decade ago. Today, LG Display supplies OLED panels to a variety of TV manufacturers including Sony, Vizio, and Hisense, as well as LG Electronics. Last year LG Display announced an expansion of its OLED production lines, and market research firm TrendForce says its production capacity is due to further increase in the second quarter of this year. MTN reports that LG Display’s total OLED TV panel production capacity is around 8 million units this year.

Today’s reports are the latest indication of Samsung’s shift away from LCD panels, which it currently uses across its television lineup. Even its QLED TVs still use LCD panels behind that quantum dot layer. Last year Samsung Display announced it would stop producing LCD panels in the face of stiff price competition from Chinese competitors, however it reportedly postponed this shutdown after the pandemic led to a rise in demand.

While falling LCD panel prices were believed to be behind last year’s move, MTN reports that the trend is reversing this year. LCD panels are reportedly growing more expensive, prompting Samsung to explore alternatives.

While Samsung Electronics plans to buy panels from LG Display, its own display division is believed to be working on Quantum Dot OLED (QD-OLED) TV panels. A report from South Korean publication The Elec this week says Samsung Display is currently working on a prototype TV using the technology, which will be sent to potential customers like Samsung Electronics after it’s produced in June. However, QD-OLED panel samples sent to Samsung Electronics in January was reportedly criticized for their low brightness.
