Philips 21:9 3D Cinema Display Landing in Homes

Early last year, Philips unveiled the Philips Cinema 21:9 screen that was super wide in aspect.

This particular TV is being revived and will be launching again as a 3D enabled Cinema TV. The new Philips 21:9 3D Cinema Display measures 58 inches diagonally.

The new TV will be capable of playing both 2D and 3D content in 2.39:1 format which gets rid of the black borders on the top and bottom of movies. Of course, if you watch regular TV on the Cinema display then the borders are put on the sides on a TV this wide.

Technical spec wise, the 21:9 Philips 9000 series is full HD, has a direct lit LED screen, 400Hz picture processing and has three sided Ambilight Spectra technology.

Price wise, it will cost £3323 and will ship in Europe and Brazil this month and will follow in other countries before the end of this year.

    Looks very nice, have been waiting for 12 months for this 2. generation 21:9 – but it seems Philips blew it this year – the front screen is reflective, even the specs on their web site states non-reflective. Also the 8000 states non-reflective even its very reflective.

    How can Philips expect us to pay 4.000 euro for a TV set which can only be used in dark rooms – lamps, andle lights etc will mirror in the picture – not to mention TV viewing during day time – on a enormoes 58″ screen – what a dump !

    Further it dosnt support full internet – why may we ask – TV seen on internet is hot now – what a dump of 4.000 euro.
