TV manufacturers boast their energy saving productions

Energy saving gadgets, techniques and gizmos are what we need in this technology rich world. And to promote that the most we need the manufacturers to get serious and work hard. One such example is Samsung. The company unveiled its 1.19-inch thick, 55-inch LED 8000 edge-lit television at an electronics show at in Las Vegas, Nevada and competitors LG Electronics was staying away from the shadows with its next-generation technology using AM OLEDs (active matrix organic light emitting diodes). They were stressing the energy-saving virtues of different display technologies at the show.

Samsung’s latest models change the backlit source from power-gulping cold compact fluorescents to energy-efficient LEDs. LG engineers say an AM OLED television consumes less than half the power of existing LCD sets and its response time is vastly quicker. Competition is healthy when it means for the better and by the looks of it good news prevails.
