Wondering what the endcap for LG's 15-inch OLED TV would look like if you were able to go see it in South Korea? Wonder no more, our passport-less friend, as YouTuber eurozero captured footage of the thing doing its thing at a retail establishment in Seoul. That video is embedded below, showing off the display's thinness, but also reminding just how small a 15-inch display looks these days -- especially when sitting next to what appears to be a clothes dryer.
DAEMN!!!
That thing's so hot I'd love to see its 32" milf hehe
It is small, although I'd love to see where this technology would be in 3-4 years, probably in the mainstream 40"-60" television sets. The only problem OLED needs to deal with as far as I know are production costs (establishing decent profit margin with reasonable pricing) and the life expectancy of the OLED screen itself.
Size is a plus, sine at the prices they ask for it you want to keep it handcuffed to you at all times, and larger sizes would make that become unwieldy.
I'd think that we came a long way since those smart web connected household appliances in the 90's, but that's certainly too much screen for a dryer / washing machine.
What an odd portion of a department store to put such an expensive, prototype-esque device like an OLED Television.
@Solidstate89
Yeah, I wonder how they call the strategy, easter-egg marketing?
in the video you see it's on the dividing line (and entrance) of the TV and household appliances area, when the photo had been taken from the left the background would be tons of TV's.

yeah I wonder how theyre gonna market that in north america. I feel like your average best buy/future shop person isnt going to be sold on buying a tv half the size for double the price.
@(Unverified) It's just for demonstration purposes, meaning showing what latest technology LG has developed, it's a halo product, they don't intend to profit off of it.
Meh, that's cam version.
@Ziyad B: Of course they intend to profit off of it. That's whole purpose of displaying it.
I’ve actually been there and saw the exactly same model. It was tagged 3 million won (that is, $2,600), but I’m not sure if it was really meant for sale. The TV was really thin, and its color was just gorgeous. Hope to see any bigger ones on upcoming CES.
Maybe a japanese tourist might buy it, they do seem to spend when on trips.
avatar was freaking awsome...
We're in the future.
Non-HD video shooting an HDTV. Sigh. It's not even worth watching.
You expect to see the advantage of OLED by watching a video on your LCD screen?
@Wwhat
The true absolute advantage that your eyes would see? No. However, when compared against a standard LCD or an LED LCD, the difference should still be obvious if it's drastic enough for our eyes to sense. And the camera type shouldn't matter that much, but when you've got macroblocking going on in ANY video (regardless of content), I see no point in watching it.
