Perhaps the biggest surprise in iSuppli’s findings was that Toshiba is making a major move up the sales charts. The company was tied for fourth with LG in LCD sales and also moved into the top six overall HDTV shippers, which iSuppli says is due to Toshiba’s aggressive pricing strategy. That’s also the theory behind Sony’s strong fourth-quarter sales, though the electronics giant’s market share declined for the whole year in both LCDs and the overall HDTV competition.

The biggest loser on the LCD side was Sharp, which saw a 29.1-percent decline in its share of the 2009 pie, including a 13.9-percent loss in share in the final quarter of the year. In 2008, Sharp had a sizeable 9.2 percent of the LCD market, but slipped to just a 5-percent market share last year. Perhaps it needs to take a page from Toshiba and Sony’s playbooks and start dropping its prices—sharply.

Leading TV reviews and feedback platform, Televisions.com has today published its review of the Samsung PS-58 P96 FD, a 58 inch Full HD Plasma TV available since late 2007. The website also features background articles, latest TV news and reviews from leading experts and user feedback.

February 23, 2010 The highly skilled team at Televisions.com used objective laboratory instruments and comprehensive subjective analysis to test the Samsung Full HD PS-58 P96 FD Plasma TV. Scoring 5.8 points on a scale of 10 in the Editors Rating, the Samsung 58 incher just about meets the editors expectations. The review praises the television set because of the duration it has existed and the comfortable price tag for the screen size it offers in addition to judder free 24p reproduction, impressively rich HD picture, and excellent TV tuner pictures. The review points out the areas which didnt let the TV gain fame in spite of its prolonged existence such as limited daylight suitability, perfect colours only for HDMI-RGB signals and grey sidebars on 4:3 aspect ratio pictures. Florian Friedrich, Televisions.coms editor in chief said: The Samsung PS-58 P96 FD has its limitations but at the price tag offered and the screen size, accurate 24p reproduction and other features it still has potential due to its fantastic price-performance ratio.

The review, in its later part, described the good features of the TV that have helped it hold its position in the market such as DVB-T (FreeView) and analogue TV receiver, multitude of connections for all peripherals like game consoles, Blu-Ray player, set-top box etc, side based VGA sockets to allow feeding of high definition signals from the PC and other devices. The testing warns against leaving static images on the screen for too long as being a plasma screen would lead to burn in. The reviewers were happy with the swivel stand that was provided with the TV that enabled easy change of viewing angles. Wall mounting though was a different story altogether. The test team recommends buying a separately available wall bracket and employing helpers to balance the weight of the 64 kg TV set.

The reviewers were happy with the comfortable and well laid out feel of the menu but the low response time let them down. A set of neat controls on the side of the TV made the test team happy as it allowed easy accessibility in situations where the remote wasnt available near by. The volume & programme controls light up to enable easy accessibility in the dark but the remote control otherwise is a bit overcrowded at the bottom end. The Samsung PS-58 P96 FD lives up to its tag of being a plasma TV by consuming power befitting its kind and provides satisfactory brightness levels when the ambient light is reduced. The test team found the built-in tuners supplying an attractive picture with the YUV and the S-video inputs providing a better picture then the Scart inputs.

The Grey bars to prevent non-uniform ageing were found by the testing team to be disturbing to the eye. The Movie Plus was highly recommended by the test team for excellent movie viewing. The review states that the TV falls short of expectations on the contrast front producing below par blacks. The later part of the review includes a list of ideal settings that the test team has derived for the Samsung PS-58 P96 FD by testing it in Televisions.coms test theatre that provide optimum picture quality in darkened environments for HDTV/Blu-ray signals thorough an HDMI interface.

Florian Friedrich said: For buyers the Samsung PS-58 P96 FD is still a good buy considering its huge screen size and other various features and its economical price tag.

Samsung has already announced that it will be launching a trio of new 3D LED-backlit television sets in March 2010 in the UK and it has also confirmed that Plasma sets will follow soon.

One technology that will not apparently make it to the UK though is DLP (Digital Light Processing), a technology used in rear projection televisions and which proved to be popular in the US because of its low prices combined with very large screen diagonals (routinely above 50-inch).

Samsung actually released 3D-ready DLP HDTVs back in January 2007, three years before LED-backlit LCD TVs with the series 7 LED DLP HDTV model being the latest model which was not only power efficient (consuming half the power of a similar size plasma screen) but also removed much of the issues associated with DLP HDTVs until now.

More importantly, Samsung produced DLP TVs that went all the way up to 72-inch, you are not likely to find anything similar in the foreseeable future and was available from Amazon for around $2800. The new C7000 model goes to 55-inch only with the entry level model being 40-inch.

Philips has officially introduced a new series of LCD HDTV with LED backlight which comes in two models – 40PFL9704 (40″) and 46PFL9704 (46″). This is the first LCD TV by Philips which equipped with LED Pro. According to official sources, LED Pro uses a larger number of LEDs (75 percent), so LCD HDTV with a system of lights will have more brightness and contrast.

This series have the following specifications: dynamic contrast – 5000000:1, response time – 1 ms. Among other features can be noted technology to update the screen with a frequency of 200 Hz, as well as support for Wi-Fi, DNLA and NetTV. Another note that the LCD HDTV in this series feature 5 ports HDMI, and each of them there are 4 speakers.

Watching downloaded and streamed HD content on your 40” HD plasma TV will soon become, if not simpler, then at least tidier thanks to Intel’s new technology, WiDi, showcased at the CES 2010.

WiDi, short for Wireless Display, enables video to be transmitted wirelessly, using a wireless network, from PCs running the new Intel Core processors to HD TVs. A special adaptor made by Netgear called Push2TV will be needed that allows TVs to pick up the wireless signals. According to Intel, the “connection is a snap” and makes having “great image clarity and amazing sound … as easy as pushing a button”.

However, there are a number of restrictions on the use of this new technology. It is only a snap for users of Core processor PCs. You’ll also need Intel’s HD graphics, Intel’s chipsets, Intel’s wireless solutions and software and the only OS which supports WiDi is Windows.

But for those of you who want the luxury of HD video on your HD TV at the touch of a button, WiDi technology will soon start to be bundled with Core i5 and Core i3 notebooks. The first company to jump on the WiDi wagon is Toshiba, whose Satellite E205 will be sold exclusively by US company Best Buy for the tidy sum of $1,000.

Hot on Toshiba’s heels is Sony with their WiDi-enabled Vaio S laptop. In the States, the Push2TV adaptor is going on sale for about $100, but some of the new WiDi laptops will be sold packaged with the adaptor. WiDi is expected to come to the UK in summer 2010, although pricing and dates are not definite yet.

WiDi technology promises an exciting way to watch HD content on a big screen, but with all the restrictions, it may not become very popular. We’ll have keep our fingers crossed for more accessible solution.

ng, JVC and others were demoing their own 2D-to-3D conversion material (with similar results) but it wasn’t clear how the effect was being achieved (whether it was the TV or some other piece of hardware). All in all, the Cell TV is a promising entry from Toshiba. The conversion might not blow you away, but we found it hard to find fault with any other aspect of the unit. This one could be a real winner for Toshiba when it’s paired with their Blu-ray 3D player, the BDX-3000.
