It was just a matter of time, and now we are about to get them: Mitsubishi Japan announced [JP] TVs that not only are 3D-enabled but also come with an integrated Blu-ray recorder and an HDD. The TVs in the so-called REAL MDR1 series will be available in three sizes: 40, 46, and 55 inches (the biggest is pictured again below).
Spec-wise, all models are identical:
- full HD LCD panel (dubbed “Diamond Panel”)
- LED backlight
- a Blu-ray burner that also plays 3D Blu-rays
- a 1TB HDD
- the DIATONE speaker system (which consists of ten speakers)
- a USB slot, an HDMI interface, an SD card slot
- a pair of 3D glasses
Mitsubishi will start selling the 3D TVs in Japan on October 21. But overkill comes with a high price: $3,500 for the 40-inch model, $4,700 for the 46-incher, and $5,900 for the biggest TV.
