Wait… A early example of a OLED display made by Sony with the resolution of 960×540(half of full hd)…. Isn't this exactly the same specs(save the size) of the PSVita's display?

I clicked because Linus pointed up with his index finger

I remember seeing this in Austria's MediaMarkt when it came out :O

Actually like that music video player idea. I suppose they would also be useful for other things, but they would be optimized as portable devices that easily pair with your phone so you can just set it down anywhere and play video with it.

I saw this on display at Bic camera, was amazing. plasma was all the rage then though

Almost The same res as ps vita OLED, coincidence

You should give a credit to the design is so good imagine it as 40" inch more is so beautiful

Kind of makes sense then why the Vita Screen was so increadibly good and still holds up.

This was whopping $10.000 back in the days

I bought a Sony walkman back then, with an OLED screen. While it was smaller than my phone, the brightness and color made it a better option for watching movies. Side note: HD OLED TV's were on the brink of becoming popular as many manufacturers had the tech laying around except Samsung. So they hyped 4K not by making the pixels smaller, but by making the TV's larger. And a lot of people fell for it. The fewing experience of only HD OLED vs 4K would have been much better as a lot of content wasn't available in 4K.

Michael Scott vibes with this monitor 🤣🤣

I remember when that first came out and almost bought it too.

I remember when we from the professional and broadcast side of Sony were briefed on that exact TV and technology. The opinion at the time was that the end result is great, but the natural deterioration of the organic component of the OLED (?) made larger screens impractical/impossible. Sony hit a wall in its R&D and apparently the larger screen were failing noticeably after 6 months. They did persevere for a while though, but ultimately abandoned OLED. They were quite dismissive internally of LG picking up the tech, and the attitude was more along the lines "we dodged a bullet, watch LG losing money on this". To be fair this was happening when Sony was already considering bowing out of the screen manufacturing business and sold off a lot of its tech to Samsung and LG. Forward a few years later and they became one of the main promoter of OLED in the pro space (using panels from LG).
