London: Though Ultra high-definition TVs will be one of the key attractions of the Las Vegas CES 2013 event this week, but analysts say the TVs will witness a slow start in the coming years, especially because of their high costs and low availability.
Big technology giants Samsung, LG and Sony will unveil their latest `Ultra-HD’ TV models at the CES 2013.
According to Top News, going by the projections of the analysts, the US sales of Ultra-HD TVs – which boast four times more pixels vis-a-vis HD TVs -will touch approximately 1.4 million units in 2016; with the predicted sales figures making barely 5 percent of the entire TV market.
So far as the sales of these TVs in the remaining parts of the world are concerned, the expected `units sold’ figure will be even lesser than the US sales figure.
About the projected slow sales of Ultra-HD TVs, Steve Koenig – director of industry analysis at the CES – said that these TVs have a “very, very limited opportunity” in the next few years; and added: “The price points here are in the five digits (in U. S. dollars) and very few manufacturers, at least at this stage, have products ready.”
