2.6 mm LCD TV panel unveiled

Friday, 29 January, 2010

LG Display claims to have developed the world’s thinnest LCD TV panel, measuring 2.6 mm.

The development of the extremely slim LCD panel was possible by applying the company’s accumulated 'slimming' technologies including the use of an ultra-slim, edge-lit LED backlight system and proprietary optical film technology.

The 42″ panel weighs less than 4 kg making it suitable for wall-mounted TVs. Moreover, the new product offers 120 Hz refresh rate with full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution for a clear and sharp image.

Last May, LG Display broke the record by unveiling 42 and 47″ LCD TV panels measuring 5.9 mm - the world’s thinnest panels at the time.
