According to JVC, their latest high definition LCD TVs, featuring built-in TV tuners, are currently the world’s thinnest sets.
These full 1080p sets will initially come in two screen sizes — 42 and 46 inch.
These TVs have a minimum depth of 39mm, with a maximum depth of 74mm at the panel’s centre. They also boast a super-thin bezel.
The slim design was made possible through the use of a new JVC-developed slim panel backlight unit and power supply substrate, or chassis. The new slim LCD panel backlight unit is 40 percent smaller in depth and bezel width compared to a conventional LCD backlight, measuring just 20mm deep and 13mm wide. It weighs only 12kg and consumes just 145W.
More details about these two sets, due to launch in the summer, to follow.
