TV Technology
Television technology has come very far since the days of black and white broadcasting. The early 1960's proved to be the start of the color television but there was little color programming to be displayed. By 1967, most network programming was in color and by 1972 half of all U.S. households had a color television set.
Now fast forward to 2015. TVs exist in more than one room of your house, they’re always running, and we can’t stop lusting for more pixels. Plasma, LCD, LED, HD-We’re always looking for a better picture, better quality, a better experience, and now-a more realistic experience. So what’s the next best thing? The world is now welcoming Ultra HD 4K TVs.
Ultra HD technology thinks far past the basics of 3840x2160 pixels. It’s got High Dynamic Range (HDR), High Frame Rate and Deep Color technology accompanying you with the best picture quality possible.
Television has evolved from a passive viewing to interactive entertainment with streaming movies and playing games built into Smart TVs. Another popular features is "mirroring" content from your smart phone or tablet. Is there a better way to share vacation photos than on a 65" UHD screen?
One of our top selling TVs, the Samsung LED JS8500 Series Smart TV, has more than 4x the pixels of a standard 1080 HD TV, enriched color, true-to-life pictures with darker darks and brighter whites, and a quad core processor which handles fast moving images on the screen. This means a smoother, more clear picture with sports and action movies for the viewer. For the ultimate immersive experience Samsung offers curved models too!
If you are looking for one of the absolute best pictures on the market, the Sony X940C is breaking standards. While it is not one of the slimmest, the picture quality will certainly blow your mind (it blew mine!) With 4K X-Reality PRO, X-tended Dynamic Range PRO and Triluminous Display, the top of the line from Sony creates a truly amazing picture with clarity and contrast that is unparalleled. To top it off this model utilizes Sony's 4K Processor X1 Precision Color Mapping to provide the widest color gamut and ensure every detail is there.
Over the past 20 years, TV technology has advanced in leaps and bounds… in the future we will see displays that can be rolled up (all ready in development!) and maybe even holograms like in Star Wars. Check back soon for more exciting things in the world of audio and video!
