Checking out on the latest sales
of Samsung’s High Definition Television, I was amazed at the improvement, design
and innovation behind this. The Samsung's Ultra-High Definition TV has well quite higher price tag on the ''Samsung
"4K” 110-inch
ultra-HD TV''. The HD TV which according to Samsung is a 110-inch TV that has four times
the resolution of standard high-definition TVs, and as well the price-tag won’t
be definitely by anything be less, is going on sale for about $150,000 in South
Korea.
The launch
Monday of the giant television set reflects global TV makers' move toward ultra
HD TVs, as manufacturing bigger TVs using OLED proves too costly.
Last year,
Samsung and rival LG Electronics, the world's top two TV makers, touted OLED as
the future of TV. OLED screens are ultrathin and can display images with
enhanced clarity and deeper color saturation.
According to reports and reviews on the ''4K'' Ultra-HD TV;Samsung and LG failed to make OLED TVs a
mainstream that would replace the LCD television sets and still struggling to
mass produce larger and affordable TVs with OLED. Meanwhile, Japanese media
reported last week that Sony Corp. and Panasonic Corp. decided to end their
OLED partnership.
Demand for U-HD TVs is expected to rise
despite dearth of content while its price will likely come down faster than
that of the OLED TVs. Much of the growth is forecast to come from China, a
major market for the South Korean TV makers. Chinese TV makers have been making
a push into the U-HD TV market as well.
According to NPD DisplaySearch, global sales
of ultra-HD TV sets will surge from 1.3 million this year to 23 million in
2017. More than half of the shipments will be taken by Chinese companies
between 2013 and 2017, according to NPD.
While Chinese TV makers have been seeking to
boost sales of U-HD TVs with a lower price and a smaller size, Samsung's
strategy is to go bigger with a higher price tag. Samsung's 110-inch U-HD TV
measures 2.6 meters by 1.8 meters. It will be available in China, the Middle
East and Europe. In South Korea, the TV is priced at 160 million won ($152,000)
while prices in other countries vary.
Samsung said it received 10 orders for the
latest premium TVs from the Middle East. Previously, the largest U-HD TV made
by Samsung was 85-inch measured diagonally.
The ultra-HD TVs are also known as "4K"
because they contain four times more pixels than an HD TV.
On the side of my reviews,I deeply salute the minds behind this great innovation for the invention of such a TV set, making viewing much more better.
