Delivering a picture of outstanding clarity and brightness on LG&#8217;s innovative BORDERLESS\u2122 design, the INFINIA series of HDTVs led by the INFINIA LX9500 &#8211; the world\u2019s first FULL LED Slim 3D TV and a two-time awardee at this year\u2019s CES and a winner of the reddot design award 2010 \u2013 invites viewers into an entirely new world of 3D TV viewing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seamless Design<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>LG\u2019s new FULL LED Slim technology elevates picture quality with a slim LED structure that supports detailed local dimming of up to 240 addressable segments (on the 55-inch class LX9500), resulting in an HDTV that provides the deeper black levels and uniform picture quality which typically could not be achieved on an ultra-thin set. LG\u2019s LED Plus technology available on the LE7500, also improves picture quality and energy efficiency by adding a basic local dimming capability of up to 16 addressable segments.<\/p>\n<p>As the world\u2019s first FULL LED Slim 3D TV, the LX9500 uses an innovative backlight structure to deliver its remarkable picture. Illuminated by a panel of 1,200 LEDs directly behind the screen (55-inch model), the Full LED Slim display provides images of exceptional brightness and clarity. With TruMotion 400Hz reducing image cross-talk and a picture further enriched by a 10,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, the LX9500\u2019s mesmerizing 3D transports viewers right to the heart of the action.<\/p>\n<p>As with all its features, the LX9500\u2019s award-winning BORDERLESS\u2122 design is geared toward creating the ultimate 3D experience. Slim and sleek, the LX9500 boasts a depth of just 22.3mm, and a 16.0mm super-narrow bezel that allows for a more expansive picture and 3D images that practically burst out of the screen. In recognition of its unparalleled design, the LX9500 this year won a reddot design award, one of the world\u2019s top three design awards and a globally accepted standard for the very best in product design.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThanks to its superb picture quality, the LX9500 offers a 3D experience like no other, where instead of just watching scenes, you can actually be part of them,\u201d said Simon Kang, CEO and President of LG Home Entertainment Company. \u201cThrough advanced features such as FULL LED Slim and BORDERLESS\u2122 design, LG is already pushing the technological boundaries for 3D. Along with our 3D Blu-ray disc player and 3D home projector, LG is well placed to become a true global leader in 3D home entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The LX9500 employs shutter glasses-type 3D technology, with glasses that add depth to an image by blocking one lens then the other in sync with the screen&#8217;s refresh rate. The LX9500 is also the only 3D TV with dual IR emitter, which sends signals syncing the lenses with the TV. Having dual emitters ensure that consumers can watch 3D contents with a wider viewing angle and from a longer distance. The glasses are comfortable enough to wear for an extended period of time and can be recharged via a USB for up to 40 hours of uninterrupted viewing pleasure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTech-savvy and design-conscious consumers in Singapore, who delight in sophisticated home entertainment products that combine the best in technology, design, and functionality, will appreciate the new innovations in LG\u2019s INFINIA series,\u201d said Mr. Jeff Cheh, Managing Director, LG Electronics Singapore. \u201cA significant milestone in the history of LG, we believe that the launch of INFINIA will further strengthen our competitiveness in the home entertainment playing field, enabling us to continue with our upswing business momentum in Singapore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Limitless Content<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In addition, NetCast\u2122 provides instant streaming, via a broadband connection, of virtually limitless online videos, movies and web albums. In another first for the industry, the LX9500 supports the Multi Picture Format (MPF), the world standard for 3D pictures, which enables user-created 3D content to be enjoyed on-screen without the need of a PC. Delivering unbeatable levels of entertainment, the LX9500 also displays regular programming and content in high-definition 2D, which is further enhanced by localized Spot Control for the ultimate in picture quality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seamless Connectivity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>LG also has incorporated the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) technology in the INFINIA series. DLNA allows consumers to access content stored on other DLNA-certified devices within the home, such as computers, making content options almost limitless.<\/p>\n<p>For greater convenience and flexibility in setup and installation, all INFINIA HDTV series with NetCast also offer wireless Full HD 1080p wireless transmission from a \u201cWireless Media Hub\u201d from up to 98 feet. Connecting source components, such as Blu-ray players, cable or satellite boxes and video games to the media hub enables transmission to a compact receiver adaptor, which attaches to the back of the TV, hidden from view. This eliminates the need for individual components to be connected directly to the TV, making for a clean and easy installation and removal of the unsightly wires (Media Hub and receiver adaptor sold separately as a package). All models with NetCast also support multi-media playback from a connected USB device including photos (JPEG), music (MP3) and video (DivX HD).<\/p>\n<p>The ultimate platform for 3D viewing, LG\u2019s LX9500 will come with a recommended retail price of S$7,999\/- (55-inch) and S$6,499\/- (47-inch). The other 3D TV model, the LX6500 retails at S$6,999\/- (55-inch), S$5,499\/- (47-inch) and S$4,499\/- (42-inch). All 3D HDTVs come bundled with 2 pairs of 3D glasses and LG\u2019s BX580 3D Blu-ray player (3D starter pack).<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the <strong>LX9500<\/strong>, other models in the INFINIA series, which will be made available in Singapore, include the below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LX6500 Series <\/strong>(42, 47, and 55-inch sizes) \u2013 This is a 3D TV featuring LED Plus technology with local dimming, TruMotion 200Hz, a dynamic contrast ratio of 8,000,000:1, Wi-Fi capability.\u00a0\u00a0 <strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LE7500 Series<\/strong> (42-, 47-, and 55-inch class sizes) \u2013 Provides consumers with a Full HD 1080p experience, TruMotion 100Hz, and LED Plus technology for local dimming capability.
