LG to Show Off 480Hz Trumotion Display at CES

John Herrman on December 30th, 2008

In a classic more=betterer move, LG is planning to top their current 240Hz sets (and Sony’s wonderfully advertised 200Hz Bravias) with an otherwise mysterious 480Hz LCD television.

The display is claimed to have a 4ms response time, and uses a “scanning backlight” technology to leverage the company’s 240Hz Trumotion technology into an effective 480 images per second.

The lock uses either a screw or adhesive to stick itself around the HDMI port, forming a sort of outer port that can clamp to your HDMI cord. At $20 a pair, the EZ locks cost as much as some HDMI cords. But then again, if you’re spending thousands or tens of thousands on your home theater setup, maybe they’re not a horrible investment.
