According to The Verge, plasma TV is dead. It’s so dead that one of the remaining brands of plasma TVs have disbanded their production this year. It probably will not be before long that the one brand that is left standing will be bidding their farewells, as they’ve recently come out with a 55-inch, curved OLED HDTV that is touted as the “best TV” of the year! Known for their superb reputation for technology and screen making, it doesn’t come as a surprise at all that this TV is by no other brand but LG. Although the design and picture quality are unrivaled, it comes at a price of $3,499.99 (save $500) at Best Buy for such luxuries!

The LG OLED TV is outstandingly thin! It has the thickness of a pencil, yet is still able to deliver a picture quality that is refreshingly clear. The Infinite contrast ratio that is included ranges from the most pristine whites to the deepest blacks! LG’s exclusive 4 Color Pixel technology delivers vivid, vibrant colors. This TV also includes an intuitive webOS platform that neatly organizes your recent viewing history, what’s on live TV, and what you might like to watch next, while the integrated LG Store is ready to deliver the latest movies, TV shows and apps. As it doesn’t get any better, you can easily open an app, change the channel, or find something new with a wave of your hand with the remote. The remote also features a unique Voice Mate with natural speech recognition that enables you to control your compatible home theater system, set-top box, sound bar, or Blu-ray player. It is true that some things in life, such as the LG OLED TV, defy all explanation and must be experienced to be believed. I have yet to experience this television in person, but it’s on my to-do list!
