Second Tier LCD TVs Getting Competitive

[HardOCP News]

It looks like first tier LCD TV makers are feeling the heat from the little guys. Second tier LCD TV makers are getting more competitive by using aggressive price cutting strategies.

During Black Friday in North America in 2006, second-tier brands performed relatively well, according to research firm DisplaySearch. Tru Tech captured the top spot for LCD TV sales volume, followed by Westinghouse Digital Electronics, Sylvania (sub-brand of Japan's Funai Electric), Advent and Sony, the research firm indicated.

This year it should be even better.The word is by midyear '07 that 52 inch 1080P LCD's should be around the $1500 with 42 inchers going for about $999 and 37 inchers going from anywhere between $600 and $800 depending on make and model.

2007 should be a wonderful year for the consumers looking to get 1080P hdtv's.
