A Video Highlighting IKEA's First Ever TV

Swedish home furnishing juggernaut IKEA join the technological big boys in vying for your television affections. IKEA’s slightly more budget-friendly price point once again caters for the mass market. Surely the Uppleva will feature in many households in the coming days, alongside the rest of its chic affordable DIY furniture. The Uppleva is a Wi-Fi-ready smart TV with an LED-backlit display, full 1080p HD resolution, 400Hz response time, and it boasts all standard compatibility features including USB and HDMI ports. It’s a surprisingly capable and complete media center with built-in Blu-ray/DVD/CD player, a 2.1 surround sound system, and extra nooks for tucking away cables and discs – typical of the lifestyle solution provider. The IKEA TV will be released to select European markets this month as it hopes to define a new segment of designer household electronics.
