Has anyone heard any updates on the Avant NG? It was believed that it would be released alongside the 14 and Horizon but no sign of it.
Nope. The Avant NG is released later on - it is better to focus on one product at a time. There will also be a semi-updated Avant in the meantime (Avant Reinstated, without the new video engine 3.0 based on Android) plus some differences (new panel for example - as the Avant NG also will have).Due to design changes there will be a new stand but the current one will work just the same. The difference is purely to match the design of the moved panels on the back. Using an older stand will only result in a height difference between the stand pole and the panels. Only visible from the back. The new models will feature some changes so that the contrast glass is easier to replace and the rubber gasket around the panel and glass is redesigned. A good change I suppose since it now takes a lot of time to replace the glass - and the rubber gasket is often badly placed on the current Avants.

Chris Townsend:I was told the only difference was the Android operating system, and it would amazingly keep its existing non HDR panel.
So what justifies giving the TV the "NG" moniker Chris?
I thought I would raise this question again. Is there going to be an Avant NG or will the next TV be the outsourced LG/B&O TV?
I am looking to purchase two new TV's in January, a 75 and a 55. Does anyone have a timeline on when the new Avant's, or better yet the new LG paneled TV's, will be released.
Last thing I want to do is get them screwed into the wall the same day the new ones come out....

Getting close to the end of year and still no update on the Avant NG. I wonder (hope) if B&O have changed their plans to include HDR etc. on it after the backlash with the 14.
