I am tired of waiting and after discussing the problem with a friend who works at a large TV reseller in a nearby country, he agreed to post a buying request for 39" 4k TVs on alibaba, since seiki is taking too long to bring the 39" 4k to our market and the other suppliers that use innolux panel are restrict to the domestic chinese market.
we are planning on asking for around 500 TV sets. so far we have agreed that it must have:
- 39-40 inches panel size, so it can double as a PC monitor
-capable of 120Hz@1080p without dropping frames ( Seiki can not do this)
we are discussing:
- Displayport input for 30hz+@3840x2160
-SBTVD/ISDB-T digital tv converter.
-3d
I ask the experts here: will it be easier/cheaper to use a native displayport board ( even if today's TCON can't handle 60hz@4k) or should we keep it simple using HDMI 1.4/2.0 boards?
Can we ask for a Tv set that only uses one HDMI for the digital Tv signal so we can have a dedicated HDMI for PC monitor usage or should we ask for a monitor only board and rely on set top boxes for other usage scenarios?
. We plan on sell these before the next soccer world cup in brazil, so the sooner we get the first batch the better. an inernal brazilian digital tv converter would allow him to sell it for non-PC users.
at least one of the Chinese domestic tv makers is announcing on alibaba that it will take orders for specific custom skus- i assume this offer involves their own 4k 39" SKUs as well, so this may well be our chance to build the "perfect value" 4k monitor.
