LG Display to Showcase Ultra HD TVs, Full HD Smartphone Screens at CES

LG Display's presence at CES 2013 will be measured in PPI (pixels per inch), as the company plans to show several Ultra HD (4K) TV screens, as well as high-resolution screens for smartphones, tablets and laptops, at the technology trade show.

The pixel-per-inch limits will be pushed in almost every category. First, there are the 55-, 66- and 84-inch UHD panels with a 3840 x 2160 pixel resolution, meaning each of these will have 8 million pixels.

Next up is a 30-inch 4K2K monitor with a whopping 4096 x 2160 pixel resolution, which LG Display claims is the highest-resolution computer monitor to date. Although the monitor is probably aimed at professionals, it's a dream machine for every computer enthusiast who's been aching for 30-inchers with a horizontal resolution higher than 2560 pixels.

LG will also show off a 5.5-inch, 1080p smartphone screen, a 7-inch, 1920 x 1200 pixel tablet screen and a 12.9-inch, 2560 x 1700 pixel screen for laptops. The latter is comparable to Apple's retina screen on the 13-inch MacBook Pro, which has a 2560 × 1600 pixel resolution.

Not content with merely stuffing more pixels into screens, LG is also narrowing the bezels of its monitor screens. At CES, it will show a 23.8-inch monitor panel with an "ultra narrow" bezel, a 13.3-inch laptop panel with a "narrower than 2 millimeter" bezel and a 4.7-inch mobile display with a 1 millimeter bezel.

Finally, the LG's OLED screens will be losing weight. The company plans to show an "impossibly thin" (meaning 4 millimeter) OLED display that weighs only 3.5 kilograms.
