Samsung 3D TV Brings Back Memories: Do We Actually Need What This Most Recent And Costly Model Offers?
Samsung launched it long awaited 3D Television. Samsung is a leader in Television for a long time and has consistently pioneered new technologies and offered its customers with a revolutionary viewing experience.
Samsung's first 3D TV has been reviewed ahead of release by the UK's largest technology site, techradar, who has nothing but glowing words to say about it, saying "we don't reckon you will be sorry you bought this Samsung.
The MSG network spent tens of thousands of dollars to get special broadcasting equipment, trained dozens of people and painstakingly recorded a 3D broadcast together with its HD and standard feeds of the March 24th Rangers vs Islanders hockey game.
Samsung is the first major manufacturer to announce plans to launch its Samsung 3D TV in Canada and began selling LED models of 3D. LED TVs are thinner and more energy efficient than the LCD and plasma models most of the consumers are familiar with, Samsung says.
But what about the millions of folks who had purchased new high-definition Televisions. Analysts say they are unwilling to spend on one more upgrade any time soon, particularly when viewers must wear special glasses to see images in 3D. Is this starting to look like what the PC companies and Microsoft have been doing to us for years.
Everyone is familiar with what happens when a new technology is released. Prices for the new gadgets are at a premium until contest comes forward or patents come closer to end. The real question is, does this technology actually provide us with the quality we demand at this level of consumerism?
I had a chance to look through the Samsung Active 3D glasses at the newly released Samsung 3D TV. I expected to go, "Wow," but didn't. Although some parts of the animated film did jump out at me briefly, I wasn't impressed
Until they develop some kind of projection technology that doesn't rely entirely on optical trickery I think 3D remains the gimmick that it is today.
In my opinion, stereoscopic 3D (S3D) is an approach to increase ticket sales at the theater and advertising for high-profile TV programming.
As long as the average customer buys the latest gadget and continues their TV addiction, the S3D fad may run longer than we think.
The first wave of Samsung 3D Televisions will range in size from 40 to 55 inches and in price from $2500 to $4000.
About a week after the LED launch, Samsung will begin selling 3D plasmas, including a 50" for $2400 and a 63" for $4100. By May, Samsung would like to have two 3D LCD models available, a 46" for $1900 and a 55" for $2800.
But the costs go up from there. Samsung's 3D glasses retail for as much as $250 a piece, plus consumers need a 3D-compatible blu-ray player (Samsung's is $400) and a new cable.
Regardless of the costly initial outlay, Samsung's director of marketing for consumer electronics says he's confident about the products' launch but won't say anything about economic relief to the purchased.
Are we prepared for this technology in a time that our own finances are strained? Will the majority of us just say: "I'm tired of getting pushed around by these companies." Or will we just be overcome by our desires to have the latest and greatest.
I won't be purchasing into the hype anytime soon. The technology is too new for me at this level and the Samsung 3D glasses are way over priced in my opinion.
