Vizio XVT3D650SV
The first new passive 3D HDTV was already spotted on Amazon. It’s the huge flagship from Vizio’s XVT3D5 series, a home theater enthusiast dream coming true: The XVT3D650SV
The specs of the XVT3D650SV according to Vizio:
- Full HD 1080p Resolution
- Razor LED backlighting with Smart Dimming
- 1,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio
- 120Hz Refresh Rate
- Theater 3D Experiance
- Built-in 802.11n dual-band Wi-Fi
- SRS TruSurround HD and SRS TruVolume audio
- Vizio Internet Apps
This HDTVdoesn’t need expensive active shutter 3D glasses and can be used with standard polarized glasses from any brand. It uses the same passive 3D technology that all the big 3D cinemas use, so the trademark name “Theater 3D” perfectly fits . So, if you have seen Avatar in cinema, you know what kind of quality you can expect. Simply stunning!
The price is still pretty high, but this home entertainment monster is worth every dollar it costs. The smaller models from the XVT3D5 series are expected soon.

Just bought one at Costco. Like the whole concept of passive 3d and it works well but the standard picture quality is not up to par. All the features are great but just can not adjust picture for clarity that a new tv in today’s market should have.
