Today in NYC, Vizio and Dolby announced pricing and availability of the industries first complete HDR (High Dynamic Range) monitor using Dolby Vision technology.


The display is equipped with Ultra Color Spectrum™ for a wider color gamut, and a quantum dot panel in the 65" class model. It isn't clear if the wider color gamut is Rec. 2020 though. The display features an 800-nit, Full-Array LED backlight and 384 Active LED Zones® .


Customers will receive immediate access to certain Warner Bros. Home Entertainment 4K Ultra HD Dolby Vision mastered titles via the popular video on-demand streaming service, VUDU®. Some of the announced Warner titles include San Andreas, Mad Max: Fury Road, Magic Mike XXL, Jupiter Ascending, Man of Steel and The Great Gatsby.


To allow for high bit rate UHD wireless streaming the display will incorporate 802.11ac dual-band WiFi.


There will be two displays available for consumers that are offered at an MSRP of $5,999.99 for the 65" class model (RS65-B2) and $129,999.99 for the 120" class model (RS120-B3).


Much different that typical consumer display sales, interested consumers can submit their orders now at VIZIO.com and will then be contacted by a local custom installer to arrange delivery and a white-glove setup service.


I am working on getting one for review as this appears to finally be meca for flat panel displays! Now we just need to get a PJ manufacturer to match this tech!

Tyler Pruitt was working this event showing off his company's calibration with it. He seemed pretty impressed, will see if he can add some thoughts here.

Yes, Spectracal is involved. Stacey Spears works there also and is equally impressed. Thus the reason I have asked for a review unit... :) Currently there doesn't seem to be any displays for the PR firm to give out for review.
