IFA Catch Up

So for the first post after we have been to IFA i thought i would let you all catch up on what went on.
The biggest stride forward with technology at this year’s show had to be the 3D television without glasses; Phillips being the best company with a product that looked like it could be sold tomorrow. A lot of the other players seemingly just brought over what they had even if it was glitchy.
3D without glasses is a bug stride forward however only if the price is right and at the moment no company could give a definitive answer to this question. All very well and good having the TV to market but if its 30% more expensive than a normal 3D television people are going to stick with paying the extra for some glasses.

moving away from 3D ", at IFA this was hard let me tell you," i can introduce LGs first 32 inch OLED screen which is the thinnest panel and sharpest picture yet. I won’t bore you with how the tech works on this but if you have a look on YouTube here:. Pretty special yes? Pretty special price tag also. If the 15inch version is anything to go by coming in at around £1500 per screen over £100 per inch!!!

Finally this week @ www.richmondav.co.uk we have some cracking deals on 42inch plasma @379.99 and also the full HD 50 inch plasma @ 599 take a look or give us a call! 0845 811 0025

Is Full HD All its cracked up to be!

So here in the office there has been a large surge of customers querying the difference between a HD ready screen and a FULL HD screen, bottom line of what people want to know "is there any difference"! Well obviously there is but this normally comes because of the refresh of the screens in question not because they are full HD. The main reason why you want to buy full HD is because you are watching high definition content through primarily a blu ray player. This content is 1080p resolution output; you cannot receive this through a standard Freeview HD or sky HD package. Eventually the content will be improved to "Full HD" and the whole world will be safe in the knowledge that there television is receiving the highest quality viewing around.

Bottom line is if its FULL HD it’s a better screen all round. If you’re not fussed then stick to a HD Ready, there normally a lot cheaper.

Take a look at some fantastic deals on HD ready screens @ www.richmondav.co.uk personal favourite at the moment is the PS42C450 which is at a staggering price of £379.99

On another note weather in the UK is seemingly on the up this week, although not hot we seem to have escaped the rain for a rest bite, check out our store soon for some exclusive back to university deals on notebooks and screens.
