LG Electronics (LGE) is scheduling the time for mass production in overseas market, the Korea-based company noted. Production cost for the 100-inch LCD TV is over US$150,000, said LGE in a company press release.
Nevertheless, prices for the 100-inch LCD TV have not yet been determined, the release said.
LGE recently developed the 100-inch LCD TV and the model will enter 2007 Guinness Book as the world's largest LCD TV, according to the release.
The 100-inch LCD TV, with panel from LG.Philips LCD, features a maximum 3,000:1 contrast ratio, color reproduction of 92%, viewing angle of 180 degrees and response time of 5ms, said the company. The TV is offering a 6.22 million-pixel picture quality, said the company.
LG.Philips LCD debuted its 100-inch LCD TV panel in March 2006.
In ultra large flat-panel TV competition, PDP (plasma display panel) technology is so far the winner. In July, Panasonic (the brand name of Matsushita Electric Industrial) said it will start offering 103-inch PDP TVs, the world's largest, with a retail selling price (RSP) of US$69,999.95, in Christmas 2006.
The TH-103PZ600U features resolution of 1,920×1,080 and a contrast ratio of 4,000:1, with panel size equivalent to four 50-inch PDPs, according to Panasonic.
