Seiki officially prices its 50-inch 4K TV at $1,500 with a late April launch
Posted in: Today's Chili 
When Seiki’s 4K TV set popped up on retail listings with a price that’s just a fraction of what we’ve seen from its more expensive rivals, we were almost convinced it was a site glitch — that couldn’t be real, could it? The company would like to reassure us that it’s quite serious. The 50-inch Ultra HD set is officially shipping to the US later in April, and it will still carry that regular $1,500 price tag when sales expand from TigerDirect (which claims to have stock today) to include Amazon and QVC, among others. We’d remain cautious about leaping in when Seiki is trying to skip a year or three of the usual commoditization process, but those who insist on their 4K bragging rights won’t have long to wait before they can start boasting.

Are you planning on getting a new phone but can’t decide what to get? If you’re thinking of maybe going with Blackberry’s Z10 smartphone, you could be in luck because it seems that Amazon has decided to drop the price of the Z10 to $99. Of course this price means that you will need to sign on to a two-year contract with either AT&T or Verizon. For those who have ordered the device via Amazon and paid the more expensive price, it seems that Amazon is willing to give back $50 in credit as long as you call their customer service and let them know, although this seems to be only applicable to new customers. For those who’d rather not be stuck in a contract with either carrier, the Z10 is selling at retail for either carrier at $529.99 for AT&T, and $599.99 on Verizon. We have to say $99 isn’t too bad of a price, and could be a somewhat affordable way for you to try out the device without having to spend too much money that you would on a higher-end smartphone like the iPhone 5 or the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S4.
