Future of Televisions – LG OLED E7 4k UHD Smart TV

Televisions has always seen a sluggish growth in terms of technological innovations and development. There has been more focus given to other products such as mobiles, and we tend to completely overlook the most essential appliance in everyone’s homes. The shift from a CRT TV to a LCD TV and finally a full HD LED TV has taken more than two decades. Yes, 20 years for majority of people to finally migrate to a new LED TV while we were busy replacing our mobile phones every 1.5 years. While this shift finally happened and still happening, I got a sneak peek into the future of Televisions, a  revolutionary “OLED 4K HDR Smart” TV from LG electronics.

TV : A journey from Home Appliance to Home Entertainment Industry

Before I write about the significance and features of the OLED E7 series TV, one should understand how the market is evolving. From being a “Home Appliance” product, Televisions has now become a “Home Entertainment” Industry product. TV’s is one of the primary devices in this Internet of things era, thanks to products like NetFlix, Amazon Prime, ChromeCast , HotStar and the likes.

From paying a monthly rent to a cable operator for a handful of blurred channels a few decades back, we now have the option to watch full HD movies and shows live/on-demand whenever you want.

So what is this OLED 4K HDR Smart TV all about?

Yes, even I had to look up my notes to type the whole thing out , but the TV in reality is a whole different ball game. It’s as if LG sat around a room one day and said, “ok , Lets invent what should be there in future TV’s, NOW. Let’s not wait for technology to catch up. Let others catch up to us”.

Till now we’ve been primarily exposed to only HD LED & 4K UHD televisions. OLED stands for Organic Light Emitting Diode. One of the biggest differences between a OLED TV and normal LED TV is that, in a LED TV, all pixels in the screens are illuminated by a LED backlight.
However in a OLED TV, every single pixel has its own illumination. This brightens up your display by several times, giving a crystal clear image that you might have never witnessed before. Especially, the contrast ratio is absolutely brilliant in an OLED TV.
