LG Announces The World’s Thinnest LCD TV









I'm not entirely sure that these sets can lay claim an actual
record, but LCD's 1080p, 6mm-deep, sub-20lb, 42-inch and 47-inch TVs do
look awfully thin.



Unfortunately LG's ultra-thin new sets—which boast 8ms response
time, LG's TruMotion 120hz video smoothing technology and a
space-saving LGS (light guide sheet) backlighting technology—appear to
be, at least for now, trade show gimmicks. That means no price, no
model name, no date of availability. And without seeing, in person,
whether this LGS backlighting provides a comparable image to a regular
CCFL backlight, it difficult to guess if we'll even see any of the new
technology in production sets. But that's fine—for now, we gawk


LG Display Co Ltd has developed what it claims are the world's thinnest
42- and 47-inch LCD TV panels. Employing the company's edge-lit LED
(light emitting diode) backlight system, these LCD TV panels realize a
panel thickness of 5.9mm.

The company's proprietary LGS (light guide sheet) technology enabled
the company to reduce the thickness of the light guide plate (LGP) by
more than half. LGP changes the direction of light beams. In addition,
the 42- and 47-inch LCD TV panels weigh in at a mere 6.1kg and 7.3kg
each, about 50% lighter than the same size of conventional CCFL-backlit
product.


The displays can reproduce a rich range of natural-looking colors with
color saturation level of 80% (NTSC). The panels feature the company's
120Hz technology with a motion picture response time (MPRT) of 8ms,
eliminating motion blur and boasting full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution.

LG enV Touch VX11000

Image
Just after introducing the Voyager in 2007, the manufacturers have come up with LG enV Touch VX11000 – a non-smartphone incorporating a full touch-sensitive display, along with internal QWERTY keyboard. The proposed name “Voyager 2” was retired, as this new model has notable improvements such as – two large 3” WVGA displays; improved user interface; quality of calls; and 3 megapixels autofocus camera. At the very first look of it, you can easily identify that this new handset is an upgrade from the Voyager, though both have many similar characteristics in design – clamshell form-factor with 2-stop hinges. Unlike the Voyager, the display takes more space in the front; pewter chrome accents surrounding and not shiny and reflective as the mirror chrome. The soft-touch coating remains still in the backside. The size of the handset is - 4.52 x 2.16 x 0.66 inches (115 x 55 x 17 mm). The external 3 inches resistive touchscreen display is quite impressive, which has WVGA 800 x 480 pixel resol...
