  • Just Like LG, Samsung Announces Its Own 105-Inch Curved HDTV

    Within hours after LG announced its 105-inch curved HDTV, Samsung also reported that it will have a huge, curved TV that will be displayed at CES in January. This seems to be the ongoing trend.

    Samsung will showcase the curved TV at the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas. The screen will exceed the standard 3,840 by 2,160 resolution commonly seen on 4K HDTV’s. Thus, the screen’s resolution will be about 5,120 by 2,160. This will give the screen an aspect ratio of 21:9 rather than the standard 16:9 aspect ration commonly found on most HDTVs and on 1080p. Besides, the number of pixels will exceed to 11 million from 8 million.

    Considering the earlier announcement that LG made, Samsung is referring to its 105-inch, curved UHD TV as the first, biggest and most curved TV device. While ‘most curved’ may be a hard claim to oppose, first and largest may be questionable as LG’s 105UB9 4K HDTV will also be at the same show.

    It is worth noting that LG’s 105UB9 is a 105-inch screen as well with a 5.120 by 2,160 resolution plus an aspect ratio of 21:9. Since both concepts are shared by Samsung and LG, it will be difficult to rule out in of the screens as the winner.

    Interestingly, neither Samsung nor LG have reports whether their screens will be accessible for sale. Therefore, if you would like to purchase the 105-inch, curved HDTV in 2014, you may not easily find it. And even if these gadgets are availed, you can anticipate a price tag of over $20,000 just for one of the models. In the meantime, both curved and big screens will be showcased at the CES unless of course one of the companies reports commercial availability at the showground.

  • Hilarious Reviews For Samsung’s $40,000 HDTV on Sale on Amazon


    Often whenever people purchase products from Amazon, they write a short review of the product. This is true for a Samsung TV that is for sale for $39,997.99. By viewing the Amazon site, the TV actually looks like quite a deal.

    The 85-Inch Samsung TV is 4K Ultra HD and has a micro dimming for the best possible picture quality. The TV also has a smart TV voice control that allows people to interact with streaming content as well as the web. The price has been reduced by more than $5,000 and 2 AA batteries are included as well as free shipping.

    So which customers can buy this? Well, we are not sure but there are already 613 people who have written reviews and rated it with 4.2 out of 5. However, we are guessing… that most of these reviews are not genuine, but are hilarious:

    My wife and I bought this after selling our daughter Amanda into white slavery. We actually got a refurbished. It's missing the remote, but oh well– for $10K off, I can afford a universal, right? – James O. Thach

    At first I hesitated to make the purchase, but then I saw the two AA batteries were free with the remote, and I was all in! Having this really fills in that empty space we called a bathroom! – Cheryl A. Gustafson

    I am very thankful that it has low energy costs as I am on a very tight budget. – Nick

    So much better than the crappy 84" we used to have. – Guy Hutchinson.

    Check out all the reviews here

    If you are not able to afford the discounted version, there are two used sets that are available for $31,499 as well as two refurbished ones that are available for $35,000. If you need a new one, there are only three left on the shelf. However, Amazon indicated that there are more on the way in case you are searching for stocking stuffers.

  • Samsung to Jump-Start Black Friday HDTV Pricing from This Sunday

    If you are hungry for Samsung’s affordable HDTV but you cannot bear to face the crown on the biggest shopping day mayhem, then you are in luck.  Samsung plans to drastically cut the price of dozens of its HDTVs for the black Friday sales from this Sunday (Nov 24).

    The price cuts will also be offered on the home theater audio. The deals are outstanding, with several HDTV prices being slashed 50% off the retail.

    Samsung has provided two ways for buying the offers. You can register through Samsung’s Black Friday Week Website and obtain all the details for pre-ordering from the company direct through Saturday, or wait for Sunday and order at these reduced prices at participating brick and mortar or online stores or from Samsung’s website. Either way, you will be able to beat the crowds on Black Friday and get the same amazing prices.

    Samsung is the number one HDTV selling brand in the US. Many of its Plasma HDTVs and LED LCDs earned great reviews from HD Gurus and others. Our highest ratings are for the F8500 series plasma that will be available on Sunday at significantly reduced prices.

    Starting Sunday, you will be able to view the prices reflected when you search for the HDTV, home theater systems and soundbars on Amazon or from your local retailers.
