Sony Bravia S990A HDTV is the first curved LED LCD set.
As if shopping for a new HDTV wasn’t complicated enough, Sony added another option for HDTV purchasers on Wednesday. The latest choice: Would you prefer your screen to be flat or curved?
Yes, the curved screen era is officially upon us. It kicked off in late July when LG introduced the first 55-inch OLED HDTV, at a cost of $15,000. The following month, Samsung counterpunched with its own 55-inch curved OLED at $9,000. Now Sony is offering curved technology in the Bravia S990A, an edge-lit 65-inch LED LCD at a more down to earth price of $4,000.
The Bravia S990A’s curvature is supposed to offer more immersive viewing, but could also mean visual distortion.
