Mitsubishi LaserVue

Mitsubishi won the race to the market by being the first to release a laser projection television. The LaserVue series will come in 65-inch and 73-inch varieties, both 1080p. They are built to preform better than plasma and LCD, they will also be prices about the same. Some people may not be so happy having to pay the same price for a 10-inch thick TV that they would for one that is less than half the size. Mitsubishi has not released any price or spec info yet.

Philips Ambilight successor: Aurea

The first generation of ambient light TVs were ok but the were still severely lacking. Philips has officially announced their next product in their lineup of ambient lighting TVs. The 42-inch Philips Aurea sets incorporate the lighting directly into the frame, instead of using the previous method of a glass frame around the set. They will be 1080p and have a 3ms response time. In addition, there’s “four trillion colors” and three HDMI 1.3 inputs. On the audio side, it has 26 speakers embedded inside, in a combination of 24 front mini drivers and 2 subwoofer/mid speaker boxes. As far as contrast and brightness goes, it’s a 550cd/m2 display with a true and dynamic contrast ratio of 1200/8000 to one. Not a very impressive contrast ratio, however the ambient light makes up for it. It runs on the Perfect Pixel HD Engine picture quality platform. There is no word on price yet.
