CES 2025 Tech Preview: RCA NEXTGEN TV And Outdoor TV Models
RCA is bringing new options to TV viewers this year with a line of NEXTGEN TV-equipped receivers and a new range of screens in camouflage colors ideal for outdoor party patios. The new sets will be available starting in the spring and are being shown for the first time at CES 2025 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
RCA NEXTGEN TV Arriving Soon
“Now that 76% of American households have access to over-the-air NEXTGEN TV from local broadcasters, RCA is proud to launch two new NEXTGEN TV models that come fully equipped with ATSC 3.0 reception electronics,” says RCA president Tony Bozzini. “The 4K RCA NEXTGEN TV sets will be available in both 55- and 65-inch sizes. Broadcasters across the country are now enhancing their signals with High Dynamic Range, and the new sets from RCA will deliver Advanced HDR from Technicolor to provide rich, vibrant colors that will make favorite shows pop like never before. When connected to internet sources, NEXTGEN TV sets also easily access additional content from local stations, from local sports and news to the latest weather forecasts at the touch of a button.”
“We are thrilled to collaborate with RCA as they bring their new TV products to market, featuring Advanced HDR by Technicolor technology,” says Rick Dumont, head of business development for HDR at Philips. “This integration underscores the growing adoption of our single-layer distribution mechanism, which streamlines production and distribution while delivering a superior viewing experience. As the most widely deployed HDR format in broadcasting, especially within NEXTGEN TV through partnerships like Sinclair, Advanced HDR by Technicolor continues to set the standard for innovation. We’re excited to see RCA’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions to their customers and look forward to unveiling more details around CES.”
