Visiting Sony Square, NYC to see the upcoming Pro division models, projection systems, and NEW Sony Crystal LED!

Sony's new Crystal MicroLED displays will be available in the B Series designed for high ambient light viewing and the C series with the design focus to deliver the very best picture quality for low to moderate ambient viewing.

Here's a pic of Sony's new B and C Series Crystal MicroLED displays w/me, and SOny product manager and one of the engineers.

Very exciting news. Look forward to coming to your store when you have them in stock to see what they look like.

I have been very interested in MicroLED displays since they were announced.

Thanks for sharing this, Robert_Zohn .

Any idea on expected availability? Are these next year's models, or further out?

 

[Robert_Zohn]

Sony's new Crystal MicroLED are new models that are expected to launch early December. The projectors and LCD/LED TVs are all 2021 models that just launched last month.

What’s the size of the micro LED sets? Wondering how far along we are to uLED becoming projector replacements for 100”+ screens for sub-$15k?

 

[Robert_Zohn]

We saw two 110" 16x9 Crystal MicroLED displays, one of the new C series and one was the new B series. I priced them out at $172,000 MSRP for the 110" 16:9 size.

I believe Samsung's new 110" MicroLED is $159,000.

In your experience working with Sony, how alert are they to human perceptual factors relating to viewing environment principles and eye strain (especially regarding the "C" model)? I assume these panels will operate at significantly higher brightness than a typical projection system.

What? SONY has forgotten how to make a TV that can be adjusted for the ambient lighting? Now they have to make different models for the level of room lighting you have? Seriously?

In other words, no time soon.

"High ambient lighting" is probably market-speak for outdoors. These are meant for very bright environments, not merely a bright living room. That takes a different class of display brightness, energy usage, and subsequent thermal management.

I continue to hope they'll achieve some economies of scale and can start halving costs, to bring this down to consumer pricing in about five years.

3yrs later, today, the price for Sammy's 110incher falls by $10k, reference to Samsung's website.
TCL pulls the trigger either today or recently, after LG and SAMSUNG, in China's domestic market with their biggest caliber... 163" screen!

TCL launches its first microLED TV: 10000 nits and 4K in 163"

But you most likely cannot afford it

taking reference from last year's release launch of 115X955 into U.S. market in Q12024 thru CES, after it made it's first appearance as 115X11Gmax in China domestic market in... roughly 2Q2023, yup... should the same trend follows, we may see this launched here by end of the year or the next CES.
the 163"microLED, how much will it be priced, thru the report it is stated that the figure comes to USD$110k estimates, which puts SAMSUNG's 110inch microLED into the game of pricing. SAMSUNG may offer discounts by few thousands for the moment, but it won't fall under the price probably of a TESLA CYBERBEAST ...as they don't feel the heat coming.

only until end of the year, we can see how low can SAMSUNG go......

On March 21st my NDA embargo will be lifted and I'll announce one more new 2024 ultra large MicroLED TV.

maybe the "Cat" had sneaked out...

...from the bag?
whoever gives the most options of screen size choice available, gets to reach out to potential buyers first?​
