Samsung has revealed it will release 14.1 inch OLED TVs at CES 2009 in a bid to keep Sony from running away with the nascent market, according to a report in the on-line magazine techradar.com.

Young Joong Noh, developer of OLED parts at Samsung, confirmed to TechRadar the sets will be coming next year. However, he was keen to point out the superior panel they Koreans will be releasing:

"Sonys TV is only standard definition; in our case well have a HD OLED TV with 120Hz capability," he said.

"Our plan is to try and release it at CES 2009."

Bigger and better future

Noh also claimed the technology was well in place for the larger sized screens, like the 31inch OLED screen on display at the Samsung stand, but the amount of TVs that make it through production is too low, as the larger size means they contain too many defects.
