LG to start global sales of OLED TVs with AI platform
The Korean tech giant said the new OLED TVs will hit the U.S. market on Monday, and gradually expand to countries in Europe, South America and Asia down the road.
LG Electronics said it will display the OLED TVs at some 500 branches of U.S. retailer Best Buy, showcasing the company’s latest Alpha 9 processor that delivers improved resolutions by optimizing color through AI technology.
The company said the global market for OLED TVs is expected to reach 2.5 million units this year, rising sharply from 1.6 million units in 2017.
In response to the rising demand, LG said it plans to expand the portion of OLED TVs in its portfolio to 20 percent in 2018, up from last year’s 15 percent.
