The Samsung and Armani HDTV

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Gadgets

Armani and Samsung have collaborated again, this time on a premium HDTV design. Revealed for the first time at the opening of the Milan International Furniture Fair. Combining cutting edge technology from Samsung with cutting edge design from Giorgio Armani, this is one sleek 1080p LCD television. Available in 46" and 52" sizes the tv itself is pretty basic looking (although I'm sure it has a more than "basic looking" picture) but the remote control sounds like it puts on quite the light show with "a full range of radiant backlights." Plus there's a smaller pebble-shaped remote for basic functions. Look for the smaller tv model to launch first (in Europe) this summer, with the 52" quickly following.

Filed under: Gadgets

It may not be the most revolutionary development in HDTV technology, but the 10,000:1 contrast ratio on Samsung's new "Bordeaux" LCD HDTV is hardly something to sneeze at. The ultra-high-res definition is going to make you feel closer to the action than ever before. The TV will be available in both 32" and 40" sizes and also boasts a slightly more streamlined design than previous models, as well as a shinier screen surface. Wood nymph models not included.

Samsung Wireless HDTV

Flat panel TVs look great, sleek and far less bulky than any ordinary TV, especially if you choose a large screen size. Unfortunately, unless you have a niche in the wall carved out for the screen - which is a good idea, but can be a hassle - there will be wires along your wall connecting the cable, DVD and any other relevant equipment. The Samsung SPD-50P7HDT Wireless is a 50" flat screen that solves these problems. It comes with a wireless AV center to which all of your extra equipment can attach. The center then transmits the signals to the screen, hanging wire-free (except for the power cord) on the wall. It's only available in Korea at the moment, and is priced around $5,000.

Optoma Big Vizion In-Wall HDTV

Filed under: Gadgets

When you want a big-screen TV, there are three main things to take into consideration: cost, quality and appearance. For appearance, most people want a flat panel TV because it allows them to make the best use of their space. High definition is the clear winner in the picture quality department, but when you combine HDTV with a flat, plasma screen TV, the costs can go through the roof if you want a TV of a decent size. The solution is to go through the wall instead of the roof. Optoma offers a Big Vizion In-Wall HDTV, which is a 100-in. rear-projection TV that is built into the wall, giving it the look of a flat panel TV at a fraction of the cost. Given that a 71" HD plasma can cost up to almost $70,000, this gorgeous big-screen is quite the bargain, priced at about $20,000.
