Feast your eyes. No really, take a long hard look at Samsung’s new asymmetric TVs. Not at the screen, but the shape of the telly itself. The Samsung TV designers have clearly been let off the leash, and the results are jaw dropping.
Details on the specs of Samsung’s new screens are scarce, and Google Translate is little help when it comes to Sammy’s press release, but what we can tell you is these are 3D TV screens and monitors with LED backlighting, straight from the Buck Rogers school of design.
3D compatible, the screens are dubbed the 9 Series and seem to be crafted from aluminium and plastic. Samsung explains that plastic features its “Touch of Color” technology, which introduces colour using double injection moulding. That’s the same sort of technology Apple used to create the first iPods, with colour inside a translucent plastic shell.
The previous Series 9 Samsung TV had Wi-Fi built in, as well as a touchscreen remote control and came with a 3D starter kit. This so this looks like a more wacky reinvention of the same product
We’ll be getting up close with the 9 Series later this week, so expect full specs soon.
