LG has announced that its 55-inch OLED HDTV will hit the U.S. in March, a slight delay from its original expected release date.
U.S. marketing chief James Fishler says the TV will cost $12,000 retail, in-line with expectations from other existing OLED models.
LG first announced the set at last CES, winning awards, but ultimately it was delayed due to manufacturing hiccups.
OLED TVs offer frames 50 percent thinner than even the thinnest LED TVs and also offer the blackest blacks and sharpest colors. OLED are used in most smartphones but manufacturing large displays have proven difficult.
