Planar is a company which is in the business of manufacturing flat panels for the last 23 years. Their product PD470 Full-HD Flat-Panel Display, 47″ is a THX certified product. This panel exhibits some outstanding features like the HD images on the panel looks pristine with no grain, no processing glitches and no noise and all these features are ensured by the company’s large investment in the minute image processing which is in the form of Faroudja’s DCDI (a cinema video format converter which helps to convert to 10 bit configuration) which helps in removing the jaggedness and the company’s intellicomb 3D adaptive comb filtering system which helps in eliminating artefacting.

That’s not the only memorable part of this 32-inch LCD, as it also features an extensive range of picture control options that accentuate the colour accuracy and realistic feel of the image. (more…)

Designed to kill, the Hitachi UT37X902 is making waves from the moment it has been open to public scrutiny. With the panel measuring a measly 1.6 inches, it is the ultimate display of technological marvel and design.
