Ahead of the Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup football, one of the event's official sponsors Hisense launched the new 80-inch L5 laser TV in Beijing, as the start of global availability, of what the vendor claims to become the big disruptor in the home theater market for 2018. And a "successor of first choice" in the large screen television market: LASER TV. The launch of Hisense L5 laser TV is expected to usher in a trend of large-scale replacement of TVs in Chinese households.
The LS5 "augurs Hisense's comprehensive participation in the large screen television market", HiSense proclaims.
Adding "With highly affordable pricing, the new product is well within the reach of families with modest incomes. With the World Cup just around the corner, the revolution of the home theater in the Chinese living room has officially been launched".
To date, the popularity of laser televisions was hobbled by two drawbacks, the lack of brightness in the image and the extravagant price. The newly launched L5 laser TV solves these two issues as in combination with the DNP ambient light reflecting screen it offers 400 nits in brightness. The second barrier to successful uptake of laser TV was the relatively High Price, HiSense's initial 100" 4K unit costs around 10K. The LS5 has an official price tag of 19,999 yuan (approx. US$3,140). Not bad considering it is a two piece TV projector and 'a new generation custom-made Danish DNP high gain anti-light hard screen, enabling a clear picture display no matter how bright the surrounding light'.
There is no mention of 4K anywhere by HiSense so one can safely conclude this LS5 Laser TV is only HD not 4K. To be expected given the reduced price point.
, a substantial increase over all existing laser models, as well as a new generation custom-made Danish DNP high gain anti-light hard screen, enabling a clear picture display no matter how bright the surrounding light. As the centerpiece of a home theater, the super large screen can be viewed comfortably without needing to draw the curtains or close the shutters. As the TV is powered by a reflective light source which is comfortable to the eyes rather than dazzling, despite the 80-inch height, the screen can be viewed comfortably even when sitting as close as 3 meters (approx. 10 ft.), greatly reducing the amount of living space that would need to be set aside as a viewing area for the home theater. The second barrier to laser TV ownership has been done away with: a price tag of 19,999 yuan (approx. US$3,140) allows the laser model to become a "successor of first choice" and augurs Hisense's comprehensive participation in the large screen television market.
