LG president Espanha defended OLED technology as superior to panels that use LED backlighting. Jaime from Jaraíz gave an interview to the Spanish website Xataka. Ele highlighted physical limitations present even in more advanced solutions like MicroRGB.
The South Korean company is preparing to launch MicroRGB panels for large sizes. Ainda thus, the official position puts OLED first. Depois comes with MicroRGB, MiniLED and other options. The executive has been in charge of the Spanish operation for more than 20 years.
OLED offers self-illuminating pixels
An OLED screen has around 33 million pixels that emit their own light. Cada forms the image independently. Já a MiniLED panel, even in the most complete configuration, works with around 20 thousand backlight lamps.
The main problem arises from light leakage. On LCD or LED panels, even when zones are turned off, white light physically escapes to nearby pixels. Isso affects black depth and overall contrast. The issue worsens in fast-moving scenes.
- Pixels OLED control brightness and color individually
- Retroiluminação LED depends on local dimming zones
- Vazamento persists even with an increase in the number of zones
- Movimento quickly reveals light trails in sports broadcasts
- Limitação physics compares to inevitable emissions in combustion engines
The executive compared the situation to CO₂ generated by engines. Mais lamps mitigate the effect, but do not eliminate the source of the problem.
MicroRGB improves contrast but maintains limitation
MicroRGB represents an improvement over traditional MiniLED. Ele uses individual red, green, and blue LEDs for backlighting. Isso delivers more accurate colors and better contrast, especially in static images.
Ainda thus, light leakage continues in dynamic scenes. Jaime of Jaraíz was blunt in stating that an LED always pollutes light, regardless of the name given to the technology. LG positions MicroRGB for televisions above 85 inches, where the cost of OLED still limits access for some consumers.
In environments with controlled lighting, OLED delivers a superior experience. You can add artificial glow to any panel. Retirar light from where it already leaks, however, is not viable. Isso makes a difference in dark rooms during night broadcasts.
Growth Expectativa with Copa from Mundo 2026
The executive projects an increase in television sales at Espanha. The Copa of the 2026 Mundo should increase between 5% and 10% compared to a typical year. The boost comes especially from models between 77 and 83 inches.
Para For those looking for the ideal TV for football, the recommendation is clear. Modelos C series OLED in these sizes offer the best result. The focus is on contrast, deep blacks and fast response in motion.
Ficha comparative technique of technologies
- OLED: self-illuminating pixels, about 33 million per 4K screen
- MicroRGB: backlighting with individual RGB LEDs
- MiniLED: up to 20 thousand white backlight lamps
- Hierarquia LG: OLED first, MicroRGB next
LG continues to invest in OLED as its main technology. MicroRGB appears as a complement for specific market segments. The statement reinforces that the company does not intend to abandon OLED in favor of solutions based solely on LED.
The debate between technologies continues in the sector. Chinese Fabricantes advances with MiniLED and variants. LG is betting on the unique advantage of self-emitting pixels to maintain its premium position.
