While the Japanese camp, including SONY, SHARP, Panasonic, etc. its booth is also the location of the central gold LED tv.

3D TV short board pain

Display Search Paul Gray European expert on TV market at the beginning of the month the author pointed out that in the glory days before 2008, the Japanese flat-panel TV giant in North America, Western Europe and Asia market limelight, but with the arrival of the LED era at the same time, the Japanese flat-panel TV giant not only in the field of traditional LCD TV panel and lost to Han Guojing fight the opponent, LED television and "late one step".

Gray pointed out that despite the current LED LCD TV is still facing a relatively common LCD LCD TV up to about $150 of the price difference, but with the expansion of the market scale, the price disparity in 2009 is expected to shrink to less than $50.

Gray said: "3D TV can bring you in the three-dimensional sense of experience, but in Europe and the United States because of television signal regulation restrictions, stereo image 3D TV show will likely face serious distortion problem. Although, I have seen the effect of the 3D TV show, but for now I am still a two-dimensional animal. "

In addition, 3D TV is currently in a short period of time will eliminate compared to ordinary flat-panel TV price of nearly $150 gap, coupled with the "shortage" can be used to describe the 3D TV signal sources and resources short board, the signs that the 3D TV market outlook is not optimistic.
