LG Electronics has shocked the Australian premium TV market by announcing a price sticker of only $15,999 for the all-new 84 inch Ultra Definition TV which delivers contents four times the resolution of a Full HD TV.
The same LG TV is selling in the USA for $22,000, while Sony offers its 4K 84 inch television for $24,000. LG's aggressive pricing puts pressure on Samsung and Sony as they are due to launch new TV technologies before the Christmas rush this year.
Analysts Smart House has spoken to claim Sony will struggle to match LG's pricing.
The LED-backlit LCD television ushers in a new standard of content. Currently top-tier televisions support Full HD content, which has a resolution of 1080 x 1920. In comparison, LG's Ultra Definition (aka 4K) has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. This large screen is populated with 8 million pixels, and that's the equivalent of four Full HD 84 inch LG TVs condensed into one crisp panel.
With a Full HD television, it's easy to spot the different pixels up close, but with an Ultra Definition television the individual pixels cannot be discerned, producing one coherent image that looks life-like.
The remote is a mix of buttons and motion-control. Think a Nintendo Wiki nun chuck shaped like a fancy electric toothbrush and you’re there. The remote is great and the ability to point your way around the screen with a flick of the wrist means it negates the need for a keyboard and mouse. With a 3840 x 2160 pixel panel, you won’t be short of screen space for that virtual keyboard. The only issue I found in my brief hands-on with the remote was that when it wakes itself up from sleep, it can forget where the centre of the screen is, meaning you need to adjust where you’re pointing accordingly.
"Every few years the industry reinvents itself and continues to raise the bar in terms of picture quality and today is no different. Today we celebrate that the future of television just got clearer.
