Asus 9" Windows tablet look really sweet. I wonder if keyboard is included.
Tell me when they've verified support for Rec.2020 to the extent of QD ;-)
I have no idea what you've seen, but the 9300 LG OLED completely shames any other TV I've seen. Yeah, it's not 4K, but honestly who cares when anything I'd watch on it would be 1080p anyway, and the picture quality is much better than similarly priced 4K TVs. Besides, I think the next wave of their OLEDs will all be 4K at current prices anyway, preserving all the other qualities they already have (LG already has 4K OLEDs on sale, but they're stupidly expensive 65" sets)Because OLED isn't worth investing in... yet. LCD has come a long way. Speaking of LG's OLED, I saw one at Best Buy and I was not impressed. The image was jagged as hell. Not sure if the thing was calibrated correctly or not, but it looked like a joke compared to Sony/Samsung's better LCD screens. The only thing that stood out was the blacks.
Not in my best buy. Seeing it demoed I was *this* close to spending $3000 on a freaking TV set. Probably would have got it if I didn't know they're expanding the production which would mean they must get cheaper soon.I don't know wtf they do to the 9300's at Best Buy, but you're right ... they literally look terrible.

I see. I assumed it was from one of their home theater systems since there was an LG sub sitting below the TV at the demo station. Odd choice.
Yes, that content was terrible.It's been revealed that LG's OLED demo stations at Best Buy are using USB thumb drives for their video demos. Apparently it's highly compressed resulting in the sub-par image quality.
Ive seen Blu0ray content on it, properly calibrated, and it looks beyond stunning. The depth, color, contrast, etc, is unrivaled by anything Ive ever seen.Yes, that content was terrible.
That said, me, Cranky Jay, and our boss had them demo BD (Avengers). It still was horrific looking. So at least in some stores, they are calibrated horrendously.
The problem with comparing Sony's W900A versus new QD is: 1) There was no content that took advantage of the expanded gamut and bit-depth 2) Now that there is content, the new displays have evolved to actually take advantage of UHD.QDs were nice in Sony W900, but in no way do they approach OLED, not a full array backlight plus QD would Id wager.
OLED has made LG the only viable player in the game right now IMO. No other company is worth supporting more as they will be the ones to make OLED succeed as every other company has abandoned ship.
4K on new OLED will mitigate SDE and new quad processors will make the Web-OS platform actually viable. If LG does not cheap out on the video processor, the perfect TV will be out this year.
I have no idea what you've seen, but the 9300 LG OLED completely shames any other TV I've seen.
Oh I believe it. That's why I always say to go by professional calibrator reviews and reviews by people who at least have had it professionally calibrated. Look at they objective measurements.Ive seen Blu0ray content on it, properly calibrated, and it looks beyond stunning. The depth, color, contrast, etc, is unrivaled by anything Ive ever seen.
Utterly shames the Sony X950B, making it looks like a dog turd.
If they can fix the motion hiccups...fuck
every TV is different, as is every room. To get the best picture possible, you can't just copy paste settings from TV to TVI've never calibrated a TV. I wouldn't know where to start. Is each specific TV unique, or can you copy settings on a per-model basis?
There can be some variance, but with current flat panel technology it's a pretty small amount. So generally, you can go by model as a starting point ... but ...I've never calibrated a TV. I wouldn't know where to start. Is each specific TV unique, or can you copy settings on a per-model basis?

Sony's TV lineup is pretty unimpressive IMO. Dumbass decisions like relegating full array to 75" classes and only with speakers. As far as LCD goes, Samsung seems far more impressive.
At a minimum, I'd add a step in between finding specs online as a starting point, and tuning the picture to your taste.Find some general specs online and tune the picture from there to your tastes. Everyone has their own taste with color/white temps for example.
Or you can buy one of those personal calibration kits (camera/software) from NewEgg or other retailers.
Yeah seems so. However I'll wait for actual objective testing with cal equipment. No way to know how they perform, particularly when we don't even have specs.Sony's TV lineup is pretty unimpressive IMO.

Hmmm ... where is this chroma sub-sampling info coming from? Anyone got a link?Yup, just the fact they made a huge deal about how thin their newer sets were shows they are once again committed to pushing mediocrity. And still only 4:2:0 on their HDMI ports? For shame.
I can't see 3D so I don't care much about VR content and the like, but it did seem kinda lazy :/Yeah that MILK VR is turning into some bullshit. Half the videos they introduced were not even spherical. I know they are trying to get content on there but common.
No idea, maybe the PS4 sold number broke GAF momentarily.Thanks! (GAF was down. What happened? Maintenance?)

Skimmed through a few models and it looks like all but the 75" 940 be edge lit. Every one I looked at still only supports 4K60 at 8 bit 4:2:0.

Well, right now if you count connecting a computer for use with the television. Possibly sooner than later if television stations, especially sports stations, such as ESPN go for 4K.That said, what's the timeline for 4K60 content production?
Or I should ask, what is supported at 30fps and less? Is it 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 then?
I think I just found my next laptop. The Lenovo LaVie Z. The world's lightest laptop.
Comes with the latest Broadwell Core i5 & i7 chips, not the Core M Fanless chips.
Some weight comparisons, its pretty insane how light they are:
Lenovo LaVie Z Laptop (13 inch) - 1.72 lbs
Lenovo LaVie Z Convertible (13 inch) (with Touchscreen) - 2.04 lbs
Surface Pro 3 (without cover) - 1.76 lbs
Surface Pro 3 (with Type cover) - 2.45 lbs
Macbook Air (11 inch) - 2.38 lbs
Macbook Air (13 inch) - 2.96 lbs
iPad 4th Gen - 1.44 lbs

you google D-NICE's settings on AVS Forum as a starting point, then adjust as per your preferences from there.I've never calibrated a TV. I wouldn't know where to start. Is each specific TV unique, or can you copy settings on a per-model basis?
I can't see 3D so I don't care much about VR content and the like
Any windows tablet with pen announcement
I know Toshiba and LG has one
You guys were fooling yourselves if you thought the Z4 was coming out during CES - matter of fact, CES hasn't been popular for the past couple of years.
MWC next month is when all relevant mobile devices show up.
Yeah my bad lenovoAcers Aspire R 13 will get an update with Broadwell processors and pen support.
Edit: Wait, did you mix up LG and Lenovo?
Yup, just the fact they made a huge deal about how thin their newer sets were shows they are once again committed to pushing mediocrity. And still only 4:2:0 on their HDMI ports? For shame.

Did Lenovo really name their laptop LaVie? Jesus Christ. I love Lenovo but what is this shit?
Tough choice between the Dell and the Lenovo. $1800 for the i7 version of the Dell which has the QHD+ screen though.

I was torn at first, but Lenovo being stupid about which model gets which updates pushed me towards the Dell.
It does kinda depend on how expensive the Dell is though, and when my Macbook finally dies.
