LG launches 55- and 65-inch Ultra-High-Def TVs

2013-01-07
I'm David Katz Meyer from CNET I'm at CES 2013 this is LG's a little mini booth right after their press conference and right next to me is a exciting TV that we didn't hear about before the press conference this is a 65 inch ultra high-definition 4k television LG is one of the only companies shipping a 4k TV right now that's 84 inches but this is the first we've heard of a smaller screen size this is a 65 inch there's also going to be a 55 inch model of this television so they're going to be shipping in the summer time frame a little bit later in the year I've been told that this TVs still a little bit preliminary so I don't have a model number yet but the set will have the same specs as the 84 inch including that 4k Ultra High Definition resolution which is four times the pixel count of a standard 1080p television of course the real problem right now is that there's no 4k content LG did briefly mention that they might do something about that we don't have any real details right now you're gonna be watching mainly 1080p on this TV and that means you won't see much of a difference in fact even if you do have 4k on this TV at this relatively small screen size Mette have a hard time telling the difference so we're really waiting to see what this thing looks like when we get into the lab and be able to compare it to today's 1080p TVs at the screen size other specs include an edge lit backlight with local dimming the set also has LG's passive 3d so pretty much all the bells and whistles you'd expect including Smart TV from a 2013 LG that's a quick look at LG's smaller 4k UHD TVs this is a 65 inch here I'm David Katz mark from CES 2013 you
