The amazing new TVs of CES thar won't fit in any room
There's been loads of pocket-sized smart tech
popping up at this year’s CES, but there are also loads of gargantuan
gadgets that you'll struggle to fit in your home, let alone the boot of
your car after you've handed over colossal amounts of cash! The latest
TVs are great examples, and we've been taking a look at everything from
120-inch commercial panels, to 'tablets' that measure in at an unbelievable 65 inches - read on to see the most amazing TVs at CES that may not actually fit in your living room!
Sony Bravia XBR900C
Glance at the latest range-topping Sony Bravia XBR900C Ultra HD telly
from the side, and it's unlikely you'll come close to guessing just how
big it actually is. Despite measuring an incredibly skinny 4.9mm at its
thinnest point - thinner than most smartphones - you'll be able to opt
for a whopping 75-inch version of the latest Bravia, and it offers a
host of goodies in addition to the impressive dimensions. There's a new
X1 4K processor for a start, which promises to upgrade image quality,
dynamic range and colour, so your movies and TV shows really should come
to life.
Sharp 120-inch 4K Commercial LCD Display
As the name hints, Sharp's Commercial LCD display may well be designed for corporate
use, and we wouldn't be surprised to see the colossal 120-inch panel
pop up in airports or the like at some point in the future, but that
doesn't stop us from wanting one for our houses! Granted, it'd be a
struggle to actually fit it through the door, you'll need an incredibly
large wall to attach it to, and we dread to think how much it actually
weighs, but just imagine watching The Gadget Show on a panel big enough
to cover the entire side of your living room!
Samsung SUHD JS 8500
Not content to let Sony take the limelight with its 75-inch telly, Samsung also unleashed a new range of high-end TVs, with the its 4K range-topper measuring in at a massive 88 inches that packs in quantum dot tech too. Sure, it still doesn't get close to the size of some commercial panels, but it's plenty big enough for us - we'd probably need to remove the fireplace first before we could hang it on the wall! Samsung has given 4K its own moniker for it’s range of tellies, with SUHD being the acronym you’ll be looking for if you want a Ultra HD Samsung telly, and that just means you can look forward to eye popping resolution, a curved design and plenty of smart options.
LG EG9900
LG was another South Korean manufacturer
to reveal some monster curved TVs, with the LG EG9900 measuring in at a
handy 77 inches. Along with the curved design, it packs in a 4K
resolution and OLED technology,
but unlike the Samsung, LG's big set is also flexible. And that means
you'll be able to switch from a curved viewing experience to a flat one
depending on who's in your living room and where people are sitting -
provided you can somehow manage to fit it into your living room! Still,
at least the bendy panel may make it easier to squeeze around your
hallway when you're actually trying to get it into your house!
Fuhu Big Tab
Granted, the Fuhu Big Tab
isn't exactly a TV per se, but at up to 65 inches it's certainly not
your run of the mill Android tablet, and we can't imagine many people
having rooms big enough to casually hang one on the wall without some
careful planning. And although it technically is a tablet, that 4K resolution should be glorious for playing back TV on demand services like Netflix or Amazon Prime Instant Video, just with the added benefit of being able to create some brilliant artwork or play massive Angry Birds when you get bored!
