Overview


Sony's OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TV, the XEL-1, is truly the next big thing in television technology. It boasts a 3 millimeter thin panel and offers unparalleled picture quality with amazing contrast, outstanding brightness, exceptional color reproduction, and a rapid response time. It delivers astounding performance in all the key picture quality categories. OLED technology can completely turn off pixels when reproducing black, resulting in more outstanding dark scene detail and a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. OLED also creates unmatched color expression and detail and enables rapid response times for smooth and natural reproduction of fast moving images like those found in sports and action movies. The XEL-1 features the latest connectivity options including two HDMI™ inputs, a digital tuner, and a Memory Stick® media slot for viewing high-resolution photos.

High Price

Reviewed by LP, 2008-02-03 00:00:00
This technology is very new. That is why it's to expensive. I guess people will be waiting for the price to go down. For now, I'll stick with my Sony Bravia.

Very Expensive!

Reviewed by Ron, 2008-01-30 00:00:00
This piece is very tiny for that price. I'd wait for the price to come down. Maybe in 3 years.

WoW

Reviewed by Mike, 2008-01-30 00:00:00
This new technology is wow! And a wow at price as well! $2500 for a 11inch TV??? I'd rather go for a 50inch 1080p plasma for now. And maybe get OLED after 5 years.

Nov 19, 2008: Stubey added a review of Dell Precision M6400 - "I have on of these and I have to say its a beast of a machine. Only downside is its alot heavier than the standard laptop and the power supply is like a power station (Its massive). I suppose then its a trade off with functionality. After all this machine flies!!" - review
