Tumbling Prices: 2010 to be the year of falling HDTV prices
December 30, 2009 by Derek
This article is a personal one: the observation that if this is the case, prices will continue to fall on HDTV sets until reaching a pretty low level, and that includes larger sizes (50″ and up), reaching levels never before seen. As HDTV lovers, we’re thrilled at this prospect.
I personally remember a 40″ Plasma TV selling for around $6,000 about 5-6 years ago. It was only 720p, and it looked amazing. People predicted price drops, but not to the levels they’re at now, especially so quickly. It’s a testament to the fact that technology marches on, and as it does, prices drop further and further, and will continue to do so. Experts are predicting record price drops in the next year or two.
See here for how prices have fallen: $780 for a 50″ LG Plasma? Simply amazing.
