LG LX9500 The First Full LED 3D TV

Earlier this year, an LG roadmap of upcoming product developments that just so happened to have been leaked to the media listed the LX9500 3D TV as a new TV to be available in commercial markets in May. Since that leaked document, there has been no further information about this product, that is until today.

The LX9500 lays its claim to fame as being the only available full LED 3D TV and that the innovative use of LED lights positioned directly behind the LCD are able to produce a contrast ratio of 10,000,000:1 which in turn translates into an amazing 3D effect.

The new range of television sets will be available in screen sizes between 47-inches to 55-inches and a common feature amongst them is the reduced footprint achieved through a 0.63-inch bezel and a 0.87-inch thickness. Some of the other features on the LX9500 include Skype video calling and of course Internet access. The LG 3D TV still does require the use of active shutter glasses but 40 hours of active use can be gained before the glasses require recharging which can be accomplished via a USB connection.

Korea will be the first market to receive the sets followed by North American and European markets this May. Pricing will be announced closer to the release date.

    using a 3d tv anything can be shown in 3d (atleast the 2 models that sears carries thus far samsung and lg), each tv has a button on the remote to change the picture from 2d to 3d. however, when you are watching something that wasnt originally intended to be viewed in 3d you will be experiencing it in what is considered virtual 3d. Things that are made to be viewed in 3d are considered native 3d. The difference between the two 3d types is that native 3d gives you the feeling that it is leaping off the screen and virtual 3d makes the image more well rounded and life like. ESPN is set to have an entire channel broadcast in 3d by the end of june. I know they are currently broadcasting the worldcup in 3d.
    I hope this helped. :)
