LG Scarlet are some fine looking LCD TVs

LG Scarlet

There have been a lot of great Scarlets in the last one hundred years. Scarlet O’Hara, Scarlet Johansson, Miss Scarlet from Clue. The new Scarlet from LG is the latest of fine looking Scarlets to burst onto the scene.

LG has recently unveiled two more great Scarlets with the LG70 and LG80 LCD televisions. I imagine that these televisions take their namesake from their red frames, and each one has full HD resolution of 1080p, as well as USB connectivity. The LG70 has a contrast ratio of 50,000:1, while the LG80 has a 30,000:1.

As for the sound, they both have precisely tuned speakers. This 3.1 channel Virtual Surround Sound system has two speakers that will automatically turn around when the TV is switched on.

Now that is one cool feature! Unfortunately, since these new television sets have just been revealed, there is no word on a price. A few thousand dollars for each will be my best guess. I suppose we have to just wait and see, because we also have no word on a release date.
