Samsung announces new DVD range - including a 1080p upscaler for just £250...
Samsung has revealed some details about its upcoming range of standard DVD players, portable DVD players, and DVD recorders…
Leading the charge will be two new up-converting ‘Hypervision’ DVD models able to upgrade standard DVD resolution to 1080i, 720p, and on one model, 1080p. The DVD-HD860 will be available in March 2006 with a guide price of £99. The DCDi Faroudja-equipped DVD-HD1080 will be available in May 2006 with a guide price of just £249.
Samsung is also introducing a new compact portable model, the DVD-L760, which it claims offers improved battery life, 480P resolution, a 16:9 aspect ratio and a 160-degree viewing angle from its TFT LCD screen. The DVD-L760 will be available in June 2006, price TBC.
Finally, Samsung will introduce no less than 10 new DVD recorder models, including twin tray DVD Recorder/High Speed duplicators, DVD/VCR combo recorders with up-conversion capabilities, single-deck DVD recorders, and HDD-DVD recorders.
We’ll hopefully bring you more specific details on some of these models when we get nearer their launch dates.
