LG Display starts mass-producing game-changing 1-120Hz Laptop displays

LG Display claims up to 48% battery life increase with its Oxide LCD laptop displays

LG Display has started mass-producing LCD laptop displays with its Oxide 1Hz technology, offering users refresh rates of 1-120Hz and up to a 48% increase in system battery life.

This new laptop display tech can intelligently detect the system’s usage environment and automatically adjust the screen’s refresh rate to 1 Hz when the screen is static and up to 120 Hz when required. For tasks where screens are often static, such as reading books, emails, and webpages, the screen can operate at 1 Hz to achieve significant power savings. LG Display claims that its 1 Hz Oxide screen technology can enable up to 48% more battery life by cutting unnecessary power consumption.

LG Display developed these new screens using a combination of internally developed circuit algorithms, improvements to LCD materials, and custom panel designs. Using its “Oxide 1 Hz” technology, LG significantly reduces power leakage in thin-film transistor (TFT) LCD displays. This reduces power draw, increasing laptop power efficiency.

Dell has confirmed that it will use these Oxide 1 Hz panels in its premium XPS laptop lineup, which was showcased at CES 2026. This will give these laptops a longer battery life than equivalent devices without “Oxide 1 Hz” displays.

LG Display has confirmed that they plan to mass-produce 1 Hz OLED panels using this technology in 2027. Using this tech, LG Display aims to increase the power efficiency of all future laptops, which is great news for everyone.
