Video: Sony's 27-inch OLED leave jaws open

Still left wanting more after checking out Sony's 82-inch 4K display? How's about a 27-inch OLED that's about as thick as two credit cards stacked together? 'Course, Sony's already offering up an 11-inch version for those with cash to burn, but this one's not nearly as ready to sneak into your home. Still, you know you can't resist taking a peek, so jump on through and start dreaming, alright?

[YoJIMbo @ Jan 6th 2008 11:09PM]

Don't you mean... DON'T screw the TV?

[bender @ Jan 6th 2008 10:30PM]

is it two or three credit cards thick because thats a huge deal breaker for me.

[Mickey Jones @ Jan 6th 2008 11:03PM]

Why? You'll have to max them all out to buy it anyway.

[Baba Booey @ Jan 6th 2008 10:38PM]

I agree with bender. My 27" Olevia is around 4". Still not bad considering...crts.

[BananaBoat @ Jan 6th 2008 10:43PM]

Ohhh so sexy.

[MaX PL and the 360 r4pe Tr4iN @ Jan 6th 2008 10:50PM]

wow i didnt care for the OLED hype much, but WOW that looks amazing. cannot judge the picture but the thinness really makes it an amazing product. hopefully that 27" gets to average consumer prices within two years.

[Motoken @ Jan 6th 2008 10:53PM]

me wanty....me wanty.....

[jitty @ Jan 6th 2008 11:57PM]

Wow, that thing is godly. LOL at all the other 9mm screens. The sony is only 3mm!

[whowhatme @ Jan 6th 2008 11:56PM]

wow.. so thin, and stylish, and sexy........

oh, and i guess the TV's not bad either

[Jake @ Jan 7th 2008 12:01AM]

But will it run longer than 5000 hours, Veronica?

[Mark N @ Jan 7th 2008 12:02AM]

i'm still waiting for the day when i'll have to put up a display using wallpaper paste.

[JoshG @ Jan 7th 2008 12:05AM]

I'd like to see some high resolution photos.

[John @ Jan 7th 2008 12:48AM]

how much of a dealbreaker is thickness, really. I mean, it's cool that they CAN do it, but if I was going to buy one, pretty much every other aspect of it would matter more to me than thickness.

[asphixiated @ Jan 7th 2008 1:09AM]

i'd imagine transporting such a display would be a huge pain in the ass, as an uneven load on the display would probably break it.

[Six @ Jan 7th 2008 1:26AM]

WoWsers! Such a sight for sore eyes! I bet you'd sell your soul for one hot mama! But all is worth it! As for the TV I'd probably just get a loan for it!! XD

[pcmike @ Jan 7th 2008 3:25AM]

Best comment ever! I had to avert myself from spitting all over my screen! Hahahaha

[ctzto @ Jan 7th 2008 5:13AM]

SO HOT!! i'm not talking about the woman.

[Poom @ Jan 7th 2008 6:19AM]

WOW!!! I sooooo want that for my PC Monitor, lol. That's so sexy! The woman is too!

[Oddish @ Jan 7th 2008 8:58AM]

Veronica's not so familiar with the metric system I suppose. That's not even close to 3 mm. More like 30 mm, and that's like 10-15 credit cards.

[Evan @ Jan 7th 2008 9:24AM]

Yes! I'd definately buy a television of that size and specs... when the price drops. I use a 24" 1080p computer monitor as a television, and picture quality on that size of a television is just as important to me as on the big-screens.

Also, I hope these OLED televisions pave the way to OLED screens in laptops.

What's an oh-lead? O L E D, someone help her out on the techie speak.

[Jake @ Jan 7th 2008 10:14AM]

How familiar are you with the concept of "Google"?

[ltemplin @ Jan 7th 2008 10:29AM]

How familiar are you with the concept of actually reading (and understanding) a comment before hitting "reply" ?

[nick @ Jan 7th 2008 5:35PM]

Really? I used to work at Eastman Kodak (where this technology originated) and we pronounced it Oh-Led just as much as O.L.E.D. It's not as correct, but very easy to pronounce in mid-sentence, unlike the staccato pronunciation of discrete initials. Just like LASER/layzer, SCSI/scuzzy, RFID/arphid, WYSIWYG/wizzywig, QWERTY/kwertie, LAN/lahn, etc, etc. I don't believe for a second that you pronounce each character in any of the final three.

[HunterXI @ Jan 7th 2008 8:06PM]

Um... I can see no technical reason why it must be O-L-E-D and not Oh-Lead. I'm a serious techie and I've been saying Oh-Lead all along.

Less volition please. It's the key to getting people to like you.

[aboriginal @ Jan 8th 2008 12:39AM]

I'm in the industry ya'll monkey nutz and have been for the past 12 years, and about the only ones who refer to LEDs and OLEDS as "leads" are the Brits and the HK'rs that still harken back to the UK occupation of Hong Kong. She doesn't seem like she's got either a Mandarin, Canton or Brit accent. And, if you fanboys can chill for a bit and sheath your weaps protecting your online GF you'd see the sarcasm of my comment. Yeesh.

[nick @ Jan 7th 2008 5:54PM]

Crap, i'm one of those double-posters.
Yeah, that's the weird thing about light emitting diodes; throughout my entire education I never heard another engineer pronounce LED as "led" (rhymes with dead) only ever "el-ee-dee." Then again, I don't really care what you call it as long as I can understand what you are talking about.

[HunterXI @ Jan 7th 2008 8:12PM]

It's a rule of length. Generally, TLAs (three-letter acronyms) are short enough to be pronounced as the three separate letters (CIA, WPM, LED, etc), while anything longer isn't. Then again, the whole pseudoword pronounciation thing pretty much only has to do with the Computer Era, and OUR acronyms. In any case, I believe fully in "Oh-Lead".
