These percentages are meaningless. What proportion of TVs sold today are 3D TVs? If it's very small it doesn't matter who is "winning", they're all probably losing money on R&D vs sales at this point.

I dunno what percentage 3dtvs make but that's not the point.

Sony has been pushing 3dtvs HARD....especially with the free ps3 giveaways.   Apparantly, it isn't working.



And how do you know this. Sure, Sony has a relatively small marketshare, but how do you know their marketshare wasn't even smaller before they started their promotion. How do you their promotion wasn't greatly beneficial to them?

Besides this is one month out of the year. Who knows, maybe Samsung had a deal going on for the month. How have sales been for the entire year?

Simple mathematical logic - equation below

sales prove samsumg 3dtvs > FREE ps3 + 3d bravia



As I stated already, being outsold by a competitor for one month doesn't mean anything.

yo jay , ummm you have MAJOR reading comprehension fail sir

37.3 percent cumulative share for the past five months.

Samsung has also demonstrated its unrivaled strong leadership in 3D TV in Europe with 50.5 percent in value in May and 45.4 percent from January to May.

Right, I didn't notice that. But still this doesn't mean much considering we don't know if Sony was ever on top, or even dominant at all, to begin with.


I just bought a Samsung 3D Smart TV , was in the market for a new TV and as with most things it depends a lot on what deals the stores are doing at the time of purchase and mine was a good one plus I already own a PS3 and Samsung has a good reputation and the days of Bravia TV's selling at a premium based on reputation for quality above their competition is long gone , also Samsung being the No1 electronics giant it's no surprise.



Research shows Video games  help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot

good for Samsung.

Sony has there work cut out for them

I still don't believe 3D will ever become maintsream, unless they can somehow create one that doesn't use glasses. I assume that would be difficult because of their is no way to determine where people will be and what angle they will be viewing from. It would also be difficult to produce 3D without glasses, because the majority of TV's are used by multiple people at the same time.

And no I don't think Sony was first to release 3D TVs. I just think they promoted the most.

They probably were never the leaders in 3D, so I don't they 'fell' from any where.

And this is only for the month of May right? Who knows how often sales fluctuate throughout the year


 I'm fairly drunk right now, and can't be arsed to go into science and physics. But, what I can tell you, right now, is that as someone studying physics and who has read into this tech, is that glassesless 3D TV's will become a reality and that multi-view, wide angle etc solutions already exsist. It's simply a matter of getting the costs down to what is deemed 'mass market'.

 Hopefully I'll see this post in the morning and maybe be able to explain a bit more behind the technology that will run these TV's - it already exsists and I be it already works and could in theory be put to market. Just it's far too expensive at the moment to be viable for the likes of Sony to bring to market - but that's only a matter of time for them to fix.

You know people were saying the same thing when HD came out, why buy a HD tv there is no real difference, what happen is it just became a madatory feature of all new tv's, 3D will be the same, it will just become a feature of all new TV's. SONY/Samsung etc are all pushing 3D tv's to help boost sales and for SONY to help there movie media business get more money from increase Blu ray sales. 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong
