LG Works on QLED and Samsung Next-Generation LEDs

It appears that the display wars are not going to end anytime soon. Both Samsung and LG announced new generation display technologies, which as you can imagine, promise to be better than anything you may have seen so far.

First off it was Samsung Mobile Display division that showcased a working prototype of the Super PLS LCD. It is said to offer 100% wider viewing angles and about 10% higher brightness than conventional IPS LCD screens. Just do not get misled by the word conventional the IPS LCD unit on the iPhone 4 is among the best we have seen.

The Super PLS displays will support resolution up to to WXGA resolution (1280 x 768 pixels) and should cost about 15 percent less to manufacture. Mass production starts early next year so we will hopefully get to see them in action pretty soon  perhaps some time around the MWC 2011 the upcoming February.

On the other side of the camp, LG does not have a working prototype to show just yet but it has announced that it has teamed up with QD Vision for the development of Quantum Dot LED (QLED) display units. Dubbed ultimate solution for displays QLED should give unmatched power efficiency, providing more brightness, while consuming less power than any currently available OLED technology.
