This looks a very interesting technology, which hopefully will mature as UHD does. Should make for a much better quality picture.

HDR (High Dynamic Range) is part two in the well designed plan of having the consumers buy new displays/tv's again.

If we would have had HDR in the first place, we probably wouldn't want to upgrade to 4K (which basicly is more pixels, and only important on very big displays). We would be happy with the HDR displays.

Which HDR standart will be the one standart is not yet clear. Nevertheless HDR will be the real improvement for us as costumers - that is where we will notice a difference even on 'smaller' tv's.....

....on condition, that there will be some HDR material to watch on the new tv's!

Next up is 'Wider Colour Gamut'.

It's incredibly interesting and will be successful as the main four boys - Panasonic, SONY, LG and Samdung are supporting it AS ARE Netflix and Amazon. It works well with both 4K and 1080p so a win win situation all around. It's cool and should be embraced positively :)

Here is another interesting article, that goes a bit ore indepth with what will come.

http://www.csimagazine.com/csi/HDR-standard-by-end-of-2015-BBC.php

It is a complicated, but highly interesting theme.....

 

So - what will the next B&O tv be like (and when will it come) Confused

My new bedroom LG TV streams UHD directly from Amazon Prime. We've recently had problems with our new fibre optic broadband, so the TV defaults back to HD.

Even at a mere 40 inches the difference between the two images is as noticeable as SD-HD. These new technologies that embrace a better quality picture, together with more pixels makes for interesting viewing. I saw the new LG 4K OLED yesterday, and by god it's good.

A Beovision 11-55 UHD OLED with this new HDRCool

Then all we need is something to watch...

That's not impossible Chris, B&O will buy in the LG OLED 4K HDR panel and build around it. That is, so long as they stay in the TV market business. So I guess that makes the MK1 4K Avant obsolete already?

Hopefully the will call it a Mark II

I love it, first they push LCD and drive plasma out of the market, then they say hey, we will give you HDR sets! To get back the contrast, dynamic range, and shadow detail/black levels plasmas already had. Ain't progress wonderful? Whistle

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus. Sad

I think this answers that question very well Jeff.

I like the article have always been open to people more in the know, telling me about the technical benefits of Plasma. But at home and in the flesh, it never really panned out that way.

My guess - it will be a complete new tv.

Just curious as to why you might think that? The Avant has been selling really well I hear!
