LG launches TV “PLED”, hybrid technology between Plasma and LED

If the question was already a great gain from a Plasma TV or an LED, LG adds one more item that can easily enter the shopping list of those seeking the best image. They presented a new model with hybrid screen technology, which combines the best of both systems, creating a completely new format: the PLED .
This new technology is present in the PM9700 TV, presented by LG this week. The PLED (Pixel Light Emitting Display ) was first seen at CES 2012 and now reaches the market as a commercial product. The technology adopted by the PLED using a new lighting system that projects the light in each pixel of the screen, so dedicated and individual, not on the screen all through the backlight system, as we have both screens on the market . Effectively, a PLED display is able to illuminate approximately 6.2 million pixels independently.

The result of this application are the purest images with colors closer to the original, and with a deeper black color. In terms of coloring, the system has a level of fidelity 95% higher than the standard RGB (red-green-blue), and its speed image processing is 600 MHz, much higher than we have today on the LED screens . According to LG itself, the main advantage of PLED technology is its energy consumption, which promises to be much smaller than Plasma tv screens on the market.

Speaking a little more model PM9700. The television has a processor Triple-XD Engine 3D FHD, which can convert quickly and efficiently images in 2D format to 3D. The model can also reproduce the images as 24P Cinema, and several other formats of audio and video through USB devices (flash drives, external hard drives, etc), including MKV, DivXHD, JPEG and MP3. The Smart TV functions are present, and the model has a web browser compatible with standard Flash 10.1.

The LG TV PM9700 has two USB ports, two HDMI 1.4 ports, speakers, 10W integrated, polarized glasses for three-dimensional imaging and remote Control Magic. Will be available in both 50 and 60 inches, with suggested prices of 1699 and 2199 euros. LG did not say when the models will be available in the market with its launch promised to “soon”. With this launch, LG plans to offer an intermediate option between the LED and Plasma, without abandoning the production of such TV screen formats.
