Samsung SlimFit 30′ Widescreen HDTV

From the press release:

Already a CES 2005 Innovations Honoree, the new TXR3079WH is a 30″ widescreen, integrated HDTV that measures less than 16″ from front to back! Typical CRT sets on the market today average more than 24″ in depth.

In addition to the ultra-trim profile, the SlimFit TV’s CRP Flat Picture Tube enables the improved brightness, contrast and more natural color associated with CRT technology. With the debut of the TXR3079WH, Samsung, already a market share leader in the vibrant CRT category, is creating a new category in the flat TV market – one that represents an ideal compromise between affordable price and coveted form factor.

With the Samsung TXR3079W, consumers can look forward to the superior picture quality and smooth action they have come to expect from traditional direct view sets. The new SlimFit HDTV attains incredible color and brightness. Its nano-pigment screen design enables an amazing 5000:1 contrast ratio, color reproduction that measures in at 100%, and an 800-candela brightness. All of these performance advantages are wrapped in its ultra-thin, sleekly designed cabinet that fits on just about any tabletop, cabinet or corner of the room.

Another compelling benefit of the TXR3079W is its built-in HDTV tuner, which works with an antenna to receive free, over-the-air broadcasts of HDTV.  It has the ability to accept digital signals from both 720p and 1080i sources, displaying them in 1080i and delivers a crystal-clear progressive scan picture from any analog source. It comes with a Dolby Digital Dynamic Sound System that includes a 20-watt stereo with a multi band adjustable equalizer to complement the experience.

For film buffs, the TXR3079W also incorporates progressive scan DVD (480p) compatibility and Samsung’s 3:2 Pull Down process that corrects the flaws inherent in film to video transfers. Samsung’s exclusive Digital Natural Image Engine (DNIe) picture enhancement technology is also included to provide even better contrast, motion, detail and color.  The TX-R3079W is scheduled to launch in June 2005 at an MSRP of $1,199.
