Opinion: CES post-show wrap-up: HDTV

13 Jan 2009 09:31:00 PST

Written by David Katzmaier
The television category is a perennial CES staple and this year was no different. For some reason nobody showed a TV bigger than Panasonic's 150-inch plasma from last year (have we maxed out in flat-panel screen size?), but most of the other trends I discussed in the preview were borne out i...

Panasonic's 37-inch VIERA TC-37LZ85 LCD HDTV reviewed

22 Dec 2008 05:41:00 PST

Written by Darren Murph
Panasonic's first 37-inch VIERA didn't live up to the family name, or at least that's the gist of CNET's recent review of the TC-37LZ85. Sure, black levels were "relatively deep," screen uniformity was "solid" and off-angle viewing was commendable, but "being saddled with inaccurate c...

Opinion: Western Digital WD TV HDD-to-HDTV adaptor

They were a nice idea, allowing you to stream music and video files stored on your computer over your home network to a TV or music system. However, most of them were expensive and fiddly to set up, so they never really caugh...

It's nearly time for JVC to drop yet another iPod dock-infused HDTV on us at CES 2009 (just a guess, is all), but for those looking for the model first introduced in January 2008, here's a bit of introspective. If you'll recall, we already heard pretty positive things about the 42-inch versi...

Review: The World's Thinnest LCD HDTVs

12 Nov 2008 21:00:00 PST

Written by Wilson Rothman
Hitachi's Director's Series 1.5 UltraThin UT37X902 (37 inches listing for $1,900) got its name because it's an inch and a half thick across its entire panel. It is a monitor with speakers, but no tuner and the barest of inputs—one HDMI and one VGA—to help it keep trim. JVC's LT-46SL89 (46 inch...

This bargain-priced 47-inch LCD won't wow anybody with its black levels or color accuracy, but for the money those aspects of its image quality are decent enough. Unfortunately, its screen uniformity is not. In our testing this set basically failed every aspect of our uniformity tests, s...

First Technical Review of Mitsubishi LaserVue Laser TV: Technically Awesome

23 Oct 2008 13:15:00 PDT

Written by matt buchanan
To dive into the nittier gritter, it has the widest color gamut of any set Gary's ever tested, far beyond the HDTV Rec. 709 broadcast standard: "Reds are so intense and crimson they’re indescribable. Ditto for yellows, purples and other colors and hues."

Written by Jason Chen
The Performance: Fantastic. We were able to stream live 1080i over-the-air (OTA) HDTV with no glitches for the most part, and whatever glitches we did see were due to the fact that OTA reception in our area isn't great and we had a small antenna. But when we watched pre-recorded content in bot...

Incidentally, Sony was also showing off an 82-inch prototype 1080p LCD screen, also graced with that coveted 120Hz frame rate. Its picture was nothing short of exquisite.

Opinion: First Look: Slingbox Pro HD Connect

29 Nov 2006 21:29:15 PST

Written by Charlie White
HD Connect down-converts your 720p or 1080i signal into a 640x480 video stream, where the horizontal part is anamorphically compressed for transport, and then is stretched back out to that typical widescreen 16x9 format on your laptop in the field. How does it look, and is it worth $50?
