I HEART CHAOS

If you think your 1080p HDTV is hot shit, just wait til CES in a week, where LG will officially unveil its 84" ultra definition 4K (4096 x 1714) resolution TV. That’s big enough, with a crazy enough resolution to see the zits on the asshole of a gnat.

It has all of LG’s Cinema 3D and Smart TV features built-in, including support for that upgraded Magic Motion remote and voice control. There’s no official word yet on when we’ll see these on shelves or at what price, but it certainly looks production ready compared to other prototypes that have been displayed over the years. While we don’t have easy sources of 4K-res video content yet, one of the reasons LG is making the jump first is for 3D. Its Cinema 3D tech uses a Film Pattern Retarder (FPR) screen and passive glasses that result in lowered resolution, but with those extra pixels there’s no question about whether viewers are still getting at least an HD picture.
