LAS VEGAS -- If for Christmas you got a 240Hz LCD television -– which eliminates much of blur in fast-action sequences -- you might already be passe.
The LG Display company showed a 480Hz screen at the Consumer Electronics Show.
It looked extremely sharp on an action sequence from the movie “Transformers,” but it was impossible to tell –- without a side-by-side comparison -- just how much better it is than 240Hz. Maybe it will be imperceptible.
Just refrain from looking at a 480Hz TV if it makes it into the marketplace, and you’ll be fine.
