The prototype display has a massive 82” size and features a resolution of 3820x2160 pixels, which results in a total screen resolution of 8.3 megapixels. Current 1080p TVs run at 1920x1080 pixels or 2.1 megapixels. According to the manufacturer, the TV integrates a red/green/blue LED backlight, which raises the color saturation to 150%. The image refresh rate is 120 Hz.

What makes this screen especially interesting is the fact that Sang Soo Kim, executive vice president of the LCD Technology Center at Samsung Electronics, called it the “optimal display for future TVs.” Quad HDTVs have been available before, but were exclusively marketed to markets that have a need for high resolution image display – such as the oil and gas industries. For example, Westinghouse has been offering 2160p TVs with sizes up to 52”.

The Westinghouse Quad HDTV is not sold on the open market, but our sources say that you won’t be able to buy one for less than $40,000 at this time. So we don’t even ask how much that 82” 2160p TV could cost and wait until we win the lottery first.

Samsung said that it will have a few other products to show at its SID show booth, including an 82” e-board with a “multi-touchscreen” that could replace whiteboards and beam projectors, the company believes, as well as its previously announced 15” blue-phase LCD and a foldable 2.3” e-paper display.

I thought it was quite overdone a large time ago; suppose there is no way to stop this craziness though. Soon we will have TVs that are measured in meters.

These should be sold with Attractive Girl included.

I think the next step in displays is with better projection technology.  There is a limit to space.

I have a 55 inch HD rear projection TV in my room..I can't imagine having anything much bigger in here...nor would I really want one, the thing generates quite a bit of heat when it's on for long periods of time, and I imagine that anything much bigger would only exacerbate that problem.

There's something kinda sad about the way that things have come to be, desensitized to everything, what became of subtlety?
