As the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) approaches, so will multiple announcements on the world's thinnest LCD TV panel. At least, that's what happened last year, and so far this year, LG is first off the mark with a new 2.6mm (0.1 inch) thin LCD TV panel.
CES is in January, by the way. The new TV is a 42-inch 1080p panel, 0.1 inch thin, as they said, weight just 8.8 pounds. Other details are skimpy on the new panel.
The 42-inch panel is ideal for a wall mounted TV system. It has a 120Hz refresh rate technology with full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution. LG also reminds users that in May they broke a record for 42-inch and 47-inch LCD panels, which were at the time the thinnest at 5.9mm (or .23 inches).
LG issued a press release on the new panel, but didn't give details such as the name or model number of the product. However, Dr. In Jae Chung, LG's CTO and Executive Vice President said, "With the development of the world's thinnest LED LCD TV panel that is only 2.6mm thick, LG Display has once again demonstrated its technical prowess to satisfy customer demand for high resolution and slim design products. We will continue to spur R&D activities in order to provide our customers and the market with the differentiated products that they desire."
LG will showcase its products at CES in Las Vegas in January. This product along with other new display technologies will be shown in a private room at the Bellagio Hotel.
