Contrary to usual business customs, during a press conference held in Tokyo that Mitsubishi introduced their latest impressive 3D laser TV for the Japanese market, the 75-LT1 which has already been release in the US. It is hard to believe, but yes, there are some products that come to western market before they hit Far East shelves.
Using the Mitsubishi's Laser technology, one of the most advanced tech, the new 75-LT1 promises to provide more comfortable, more vivid, more eco-friendly image.
As reminder, Mitsubishi's laser technology known as LaserVue TV aims to provide a color range twice than that found on a normal HD TV, and at the same time significantly reduces the power consumption. According to the Japanese manufacturer it only consumes 270 Watts. To put it in perspective, Mitsubishi's new 75-inch TV, which is the equivalent of four 37-inch TV in terms of panel size, was consuming just 305 Watts (270 Watts for the screen + 35 Watts for the station), while four 37-inch TVs are consuming 572 Watts in total.
Besides that eco-friendly fact, Mitsubishi was also claiming their technology based on laser beams provides an extensive range of rich, complex colors, truly distinct clarity, and immersive depth of field. Unfortunately, using this kind of rear-projection technology won't help to get slimmer and sexier display. Indeed, the 75-LT1 is thick 38.4cm. Anyway, this is thanks to this technology, Mitsubishi could produce much bigger screen sizes for less money and we always welcome such move.
Lastly, regarding specs, Mitsubishi's 75-LT1 comes with a 75-inch Full HD panel (1920 x 1080 pixels) which can display 3D images using the side-by-side format. The new TV also features BS.110/CS Digital TV Tuner, as well as five HDMI inputs, one HDMI output, one D-Sub port, three S-Video ports, two 10 Watts speakers, and two pairs of active shutter 3D glasses. The only thing that Mitsubishi doesn't offer, and we think it should to complete the picture, is the DVD with Avatar. But somehow we believe that you have your copy. ■
