The personal reviews from those lucky enough to attend the unveiling of Mitsubishi’s Laser TV at the Palms in Las Vegas have been overwhelmingly positive. Laser TV promises to usher in a new era of high-definition television displays, offering the brightest and most vivid picture available, coupled with unheralded longevity and energy efficiency. Look for Mitsubishi’s LaserTV and its “Believing is Seeing” campaign coming Fall of 2008.

“Amazing looking blues, extravagant reds, brilliant yellows, and harmonic purples overwhelmed my sense. I stared, mesmerized at these TVs and the colors that it produced.” -PC World

“At first glance the colors were sensational and the contrast was extremely intense…” -Engadget

The laser displays at the Palms looked impressive to me…” -Smarthouse

“I must admit, this rear-projection TV tech looks very good with deep color and great sharpness.” -DVICE

“The result is some of the most vivid colour we’ve ever seen on any TV, especially the primary colours of red, green and blue. The blacks were midnight-dark…” -Gizmodo

    hello. I just recently got into the laser tv. I have read online that it has astounding color and extra sharp crispness to the picture. But i recently replaced a lcd tv with a samsung plasma with a dynamic contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. That leads me to ask: what is the contrast ratio of the new lasertv? (if you got the specs on that. if not its cool. its just a question to consider)

    And my tv has the 3d tech recently only available to DLP, so there is no doubt that this will have 3Dready tech.
    But i must ask about burn-in. Early rear-projection and plasma tvs (and even some lcds)were effected by it, resulting in very unhappy customers. DLP however was said to not have this problem. Now, just from bare knowledge, lasers are hot. go figure. So will the brighter, hotter colors burn in to the screen?

    I do think that there are some unmentioned drawbacks of the lasertv. There are always vices to any tv, but what are the ones of the new lasertv?
