Embodiments of systems and methods for power control in an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display device are described. In an embodiment, a method includes monitoring a level of current draw from an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display device. The method may also include comparing the level of current draw to a threshold value. Additionally, a method may include throttling system power consumption in response to the level of current draw exceeding the threshold value.
