Sony's advanced RGB LED display technology aims to rival OLED
Published on: 2025-06-12 09:01:00
Forward-looking: Sony has unveiled a new display technology called General RGB LED Backlight Technology, which is expected to improve how colors are presented on screens. This approach replaces traditional blue LEDs in mini-LED TVs with RGB LEDs, allowing the backlight to shine through with the correct color shade without relying on color filters or quantum dots. The result is a richer, more vibrant color palette and a brighter overall picture, potentially challenging OLED technology's dominance in the market.
The leading screen technologies in mid- to high-end TVs are mini-LED LCD and OLED. Mini-LED LCDs use hundreds or thousands of miniature LEDs behind an LCD panel to provide precise lighting where needed, which is excellent for HDR highlights without blooming. However, they are not perfect.
On the other hand, OLEDs use individual organic LEDs behind each pixel, allowing for better contrast and nuanced HDR, but they lack the brightness of mini-LEDs. Sony's RGB LED technology seeks
