There quite a lot of ruckus going on with Quad HD. More and more people are hearing about it and they are going crazy! Everyone’s wondering when Quad HD is going to come out. One site (don’t remember which one) said that it will debut in 2015, which is too far in the future. It’s about 7 years from now. All the major manufacturers have developed prototypes and some are even selling it right now for a hefty price. Westinghouse is selling a 46″ and a 52″ QuadHDTV to businesses who need them, like research labs and businesses that require highly detail 3D modeling to do analysis.

Samsung has created an 82″ prototype also. Wonder how much that sells for? My estimate is that QuadHDTVs will be available to the masses in 2011-2012. That’s a much better estimate. The current 1080p sets have matured and there are only a few kinks that need to be fixed. LCD prices are dropping 15% (average) every year. This past year it has been around 20%-25% with Vizio undercutting the market. Vizio has a huge market and is catching up to Samsung and Sony. Sony will fall shortly, if they don’t drop their prices. Vizios are sold in Wal-Mart, BJ’s, Sam’s Club, and Costo.

QuadHD’s will run at about $4,000 for a 52″. Technology is moving at a fast rate. 1080p has only been around for 2-3 years and they are already prototyping and selling 2160p TVs. In 4-5 years they are bound to hit the market.
