4K Display Industry Update by Paul Gray and Paul Gagnon from IHS DisplaySearch
IHS DisplaySearch are Analysts reporting on the TV industry. Here’s a 13-minute video talking about the status of 4K (where more than 25% of TVs to be shipped in 2015 will be 4K, where the bulk of TVs at 50″ and above will be 4K by 2018). Everybody is doing 4K. Here’s a 13-minute video filmed at CES 2015, talking about explosive growth forecast for Quantum Dot LCD getting extremely pure and saturated light for amazing colors. The cheapest 4K TVs were sub-$500 on Black Friday, even top tier manufacturers such as Samsung and LG are also going below $1000 for 4K TVs at decent sizes, seeing entry level, medium level and step-up from many manufacturers. Good 4K is not just the pixels, it’s color, fast refresh rates, contrast, requires a good engine, display, amount of memory, reliability, heat management.
