Bad sales for UHD TVs from LG

LG-Logo

If you believe Korean sources, sales of LG’s giant UHD TVs in the home market are not particularly good. On the contrary, in the five months since its launch in Korea, they have managed to sell only 300 units; at least that is what the sources are saying. Right now it looks like people are still waiting for a few more models to come out so they are sure that the product they are buying is without flaws you can encounter in the first series of devices. Many are also waiting for the prices to drop as even the least expensive model is several thousand dollars.

Judging by the moves of some Japanese manufacturers, we are about to enter a period of ultra high-definition television [this is not really a big surprise as they created the name a few months ago –Ed]. Sharp is releasing a new model, the ICC Purios and it is supposed to be the best and most expensive TV available from this manufacturer. Nothing unusual if we consider that we are talking about UHD TV screen with a diagonal of 60 inches.

4K Officially becomes Ultra HD

ultrahd

One of the hottest topics last month at the IFA trade show in Berlin was certainly the new 4K technology. It's not some kind of out-of-this world technology, it's just the next step in increasing resolution and reaching around 4,000x2,000 to 4,000x3,000. The devices with this resolution are still very rare, and are expected to be presented in more detail at the 2013 International CES annual consumer technology show [We will be covering this show again and hope to get you more information]. This week CEA (Consumers Electronics Association) announced that 4K will be known as Ultra High-Definition, or simply Ultra HD.

win8logoredesignedIf there is one constant in the world or IT (in indeed the world) it is change. I remember learning that back in physics class many, many years ago. Change is not stoppable it is not something that you can run from and it is a law that seems to be the driving force behind so much. Where am I going with all of this? Well I talking about the way the consumer electronic markets and the PC markets are moving. When I first started tinkering around with hardware resolutions were laughable compared to what your average smartphone can pull off. I am talking about 192 x 160 with 8-bit color and this was considered cutting edge!
