Best 4K TVs of the moment

We are at a time when LG is the largest manufacturer of OLED panels after Samsung has decided to bet on its QLED technology. The brand is making a great effort to stay on top of this technology to which some of the main Asian manufacturers could join. If there is a sector in which its OLED panels have not yet mastered, it is mobile devices, a territory that Samsung dominates with an iron hand.

The manufacturer is going to put all the meat on the grill with a new OLED panel manufacturing plant in Guangzhou, China, the first the brand has launched outside of its native country, Korea. OLED technology has numerous advantages such as much more intense colors and a pure black that is achieved by turning off the pixels that show this color, in this aspect no other technology has yet managed to shade it.
