SEOUL, Korea (March 22, 2026) – LG Display, the world’s leading innovator of display technologies, today announced that it is beginning the world’s first-ever mass production of an LCD panel for laptops equipped with its Oxide 1Hz technology.

The panel’s core feature is its ability to intelligently detect the usage environment. It automatically switches the refresh rate down to 1Hz when the screen is static and up to 120Hz when needed. For example, when performing tasks involving primarily still images — such as checking emails or reading e-books and research papers — the panel operates at the lowest refresh rate of 1Hz. Conversely, it runs in high-refresh-rate mode at up to 120Hz when streaming content such as movies or sports as well as playing games with frequent screen changes.

Refresh rate refers to the number of times a screen is redrawn per second. A higher refresh rate reduces flickering, delivering smoother and clearer visuals. However, maintaining a high refresh rate on a static screen results in unnecessary power consumption due to continuous circuit operation.

By ushering in the unprecedented mass production of a laptop panel that flexibly adjusts the refresh rate based on on-screen activity, LG Display is able to offer a product that boasts greater power efficiency.

In order to achieve this world first, the company developed its own circuit algorithms and panel design technology, discovering new materials and applying the oxide with the lowest power leakage during low-refresh-rate mode to the display’s thin-film transistor (TFT).

The result is dramatically improved battery efficiency, including 48% more use on a single charge compared to existing solutions.

Considering mobility is a key purchasing factor for laptops, extending usage time with a high-efficiency battery is expected to significantly enhance consumer freedom and convenience. Furthermore, with the recent increase in AI computational tasks driving up power consumption, laptops incorporating Oxide 1Hz are anticipated to rise to even greater prominence.

LG Display will be supplying the Oxide 1Hz laptop panel to global PC manufacturer Dell for its flagship premium XPS lineup. Dell unveiled new XPS models featuring the panel at CES 2026 in January.

In addition, LG Display is preparing to begin mass production of a 1Hz OLED panel incorporating the same technology from 2027. 

The company will continue to develop and apply energy-saving technologies such as Oxide 1Hz to advance its “Carbon Emission Reduction Project,” which aims to reduce carbon emissions during the product usage phase by up to 10%.

“We will deliver differentiated customer value through a 1-120Hz variable refresh rate that integrates world class technology,” said Jae-won Jang, Head of LG Display’s Medium Display Product Planning Division. 
“This unique value includes maximizing laptop battery efficiency for consumer convenience in the AI era.”

SEOUL, Korea (February 26, 2026) – LG Display, the world’s leading innovator of display technologies, today announced that all of its large-sized OLED panels, including those for TVs and monitors, have been recognized for their “perfect dimming technology” – earning the industry’s first “100% dimming consistency” verification from UL Solutions, a global leader in applied safety science. This performance, as validated by UL Solutions, objectively demonstrates the superiority of OLED’s pixel-level dimming.

Dimming consistency refers to a measurement method that evaluates, in percentage terms, how effectively a display reproduces content based on its brightness performance. A reference area is set in the center of the screen and is gradually reduced from 1/10 of the panel to 11/1000, 5/1000, and finally 2/1000. The results are expressed as a percentage: if the maximum and minimum brightness values remain the same throughout the process, dimming consistency is 100%. Conversely, as the value decreases, it means that there is light intensity variation within the same screen. In such cases, brightness differs depending on the position of the light source, even for the same color.

LG Display’s OLED maintained the same brightness performance even as the test reference area decreased, achieving a dimming consistency rate of 100%. In contrast, LCD-based panels became dimmer as the test reference area shrank, with dimming consistency dropping from a maximum of 83% to as low as 43%.

This is due to differences in emission methods. Because OLED panels emit light at the pixel level, with pixels measuring only about 0.1 mm², they can maintain brightness even when the test reference area is reduced, reproducing natural colors and clearly distinguishing color boundaries. This means they can faithfully express the content creator’s original intent.

By comparison, RGB Mini LED, the latest LCD TV technology, relies on backlight blocks that are 160,000 to 830,000 times larger than the pixels of an OLED panel, revealing limitations in reproducing natural colors. As brightness diminishes toward the edges of the backlight blocks, it becomes difficult to clearly distinguish color boundaries, resulting in reduced color accuracy. Light bleeding, known as the halo effect, may also occur. (See Photo 1)

With the halo effect, light leaks from the boundaries of the backlight blocks of an LCD panel, causing the image to appear hazy. For example, when a bright star in a dark sky is smaller than the area of a backlight block, the boundary between the starlight and the dark sky may not be rendered clearly, making the image appear blurred. (See Photo 2)

This further highlights OLED as the optimal display for connecting humans and AI. In the AI era, high luminance, high resolution, and high color gamut performance are essential – enabling brighter, sharper, and more accurate color reproduction. Having achieved 100% dimming consistency, OLED can deliver the rich visual information generated by AI in a natural and precise manner.

LG Display plans to further strengthen its large-sized OLED leadership based on this world-leading OLED technology. The company’s new OLED TV panel applies its proprietary “Primary RGB Tandem 2.0” technology, which emits light by stacking the three primary colors of light – red, green, and blue – in independent layers. It delivers a peak luminance of up to 4,500 nits (one nit equals the brightness of a single candle) and incorporates technology that absorbs and disperses light rather than reflecting it, achieving the lowest reflectance level (0.3%) among existing displays.

Hyeon-woo Lee, Head of LG Display’s Large Display Business Unit, said, “We have objectively identified why OLED appears brighter and clearer. Through this verification, we can more clearly explain to customers that OLED’s pixel dimming technology, which maintains 100% dimming consistency, is the optimal choice in the AI era.”
