TV in China is huge with an estimated 95% of the population owning at least one television in their household, not to mention the number of officers, bars, coffee shops and other business which use large LCD TV’s for promotion and entertainment!
With such a huge market and possible growth big brand TV makers such as Haier, Haisense, Skyworth and Konka have slashed 3D TV prices by as much as 50%!
For an example a 40-42-inch LED 3D TV would have cost as much as 11,900 Yuan ($1871) in January of this year, but that price has now dropped to a staggering 6,138 Yuan ($965) with some domestic brands dropping to as low as 5000 Yuan ($786) for a 40-inch 3D TV.
