85 inches of FUTURE!So what are we getting for just shy of US$40-k?. As mentioned there’s a quad-core CPU running the 214cm TV, 2.2 channel speakers and the “we’re not ready for ...
There was one thing predominantly clear at CES 2013. Actually it's two things: 3D TV is dead/dying, and enormous living-room-dominating Ultra HD and OLED TVs are the next big thing. Ultra HD, also termed 4K, has been on everybody's lips with the three main competitors Samsung, Sony and LG displaying TV sets that almost defy logic, and making the oft-used phrase "world's first" into a cliché.

As well as Toshiba Places, a growing online portal that supports ...
Sony has just revealed its latest offering, the XBR-84X900 Ultra HDTV. Set to retail for a sizable US$25 000, it is a little more expensive than LG's 84-incher.
The reason for the bigger price tag you might ask? The XBR-84X900 is said to arrive pre-loaded with 4K enabled content, which is the first of its kind. The Ultra HDTV market is fairly small, but Sony will be pinning its hopes on the added 4K delivery system, with the chance that it ...
LG will launch its new 21:9 aspect ratio EA93 UltraWide LCD monitor this month. With a resolution of 2560x1080 and measuring 29 inches, the cinema-styled ratio will enable users to view two or more videos side by side, and finally get rid of the black borders above and below wide-screen movies.

The Walka 7 is DSTV Mobile's latest offering for mobile television viewing. It's sporting a 7-inch display, twice that of the previous Walka handheld device.
Has the increase in screen size affected the quality of this newest device?
First impression
When I first got my hands on the Walka 7 I was surprised by the sheer weight of the it. Its pretty hefty and not ideal for viewing while travelling. It's better suited to a stable surface with movement kept to a minimum.
