[THE INVESTOR] LG Electronics said on Feb. 12 its domestic sales of high-end OLED TVs surpassed the 14,000 unit mark last month.
The sales figure means that the Korean tech giant sold one OLED TV every three minutes last month.
In comparison, LG sold about 5,000 units of OLED TVs in January 2017.
The growth of OLED TVs was driven by sales of large-sized TVs, including 65-inch models, the company said.
LG said its 55-inch OLED TVs are currently priced between 2.39 million won (US$2,200) and 3.09 million won, down from 15 million won in 2013.
