MISSISSAUGA, Ontario (24 January 2012) - Samsung Electronics Canada (SEC) announced today that it shipped one million flat panel televisions into the Canadian market in 2011, making it the number one brand in this country. To celebrate the milestone, the consumer electronics giant is partnering with Citytv and launching an online contest that will see eligible Canadians win one of its flagship LED TVs.

TORONTO (21 November 2011) - When it comes to buying a new television, big is definitely better, according to the results of a new survey commissioned by Sharp Canada. The survey also revealed that the number one feature respondents were looking for in a new TV was a larger scene size, with 54% saying they want one 50 inches or larger.

PORT WASHINGTON, New York (15 September 2011) - U.S. consumers are still reluctant to purchase a number of consumer electronics products online, according to a new study published by the NPD Group, a market research firm based here. Although the survey didn't include Canadian consumers, the trends are likely to apply north of the border.

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario (22 August 2011) - Shipments of flat panel televisions are expected to improve by a mere 1.3% this year while those of DVD players, including the new Blu-Ray model are expected to fall 6.8%. Both findings can be found in the 2011 edition of the Consumer Electronics Market Trends & Forecast report, published by the Consumer Electronics Marketers of Canada (CEMC).
