Samsung 8K 'The Wall Luxury' televisions up to 292 inches available next month
Jeezsus, 292 inches, anyhow, with a screen diagonal of no less than 232 inches, 'The Wall', as Samsung calls it, is the largest television ever released by the company. The models in the 'The Wall' series use microled technology that is currently a lot more expensive than oled and qled panels.
Available globally starting July 2019, The Wall Luxury offers a new user interface and experience. Based on research into the lifestyles of target customers and their preferences, the new luxury model goes beyond image quality and provides a personalized user experience. A customizable décor frame enhances the display and ensures it fits any luxury space. Thanks to the 100,000-hour lifetime of its self-emitting diodes, The Wall is designed to never turn off and can change into a digital canvas best matching the owner’s interior needs and mood. When the screen is not in use, Ambient Mode can display a variety of curated art from paintings, photographs and video art to customizable pictures with digital frames that enhance the living space. The Wall Professional, launched in June 2018 as the commercial-focused version of the display, delivers an exceptional level of immersive viewing in public spaces, retail stores and hotels.
The Wall Luxury is also equipped with the AI picture quality engine, Quantum Processor Flex. A machine learning-based picture quality engine, Quantum Processor Flex delivers optimized picture quality scene-by-scene regardless of the original source format. The processor analyzes image data to automatically calibrate the original lower resolution content to align with the modular screen’s resolution.
Whether viewing a classic movie, an anticipated sporting event or the latest console game, AI upscaling, Quantum HDR technology peak brightness of 2,000 nits and 120Hz video rate provide a rich and superior visual experience that is unmatched. To complement the display’s visuals, Samsung partnered with industry-leading home entertainment and automation providers, including Harman Luxury Audio and Steinway Lyngdorf for audio solutions; Control4, Crestron and Savant for home automation solutions; and Domotz, Ihiji and OrvC for remote monitoring capabilities.
“Throughout the last twelve months, we’ve closely monitored interior design and technology trends to shape the product planning and development of The Wall Luxury,” said Mark Quiroz, Vice President of Product Marketing for Samsung Electronics America. “We set out to create a product unlike anything else — matching the lifestyle and taste of those looking for the most exclusive and premium visual experiences in their homes.”
The target prices for the televisions in this The Wall Luxury series are not yet known, and perhaps that is for the better as well :)

@schmidtbag : let's not spread OLD information on a tech enthusiast forum. Hell has been replaced with a permanent audit and gender sensitivity training on respectively even or odd days of the month, due to Hell's Android App compatibility certification for Samsung Smart TV's being rescinded again over aberrant thermal fluctuations. Not to mention malfunctions on any given Sunday.

I would buy this over a lamborghini any day.
Why would i rather have a vehicle that does the same as a $14000 (since i won't be racing it, and only drive from work and back), when i can have a TV that i will actually notice the difference since i, you know, watch TV?

A TV the size of a WALL would. Especially on the internet. Might as well stare straight into a beamer...:p
But people's eye are really damaged by LED headlights according to that French agency. So that's a real issue right there. You go to work in the morning with those things blinding you, then you're staring at a screen all day long, and then you have to look into those headlights again on the way home.
Headlights are 8 hojillion times brighter than any screen ever. Blue LEDs don't magically damage your eyes much more than anything else of a given intensity. If an LED is bright enough to damage your eyes, it doesn't matter if it's blue or otherwise, it's going to do damage. Screens don't damage eyes unless the user does something very unusual and stupid, like getting an HDR1000 screen, setting it to 100% and staring at it without blinking for half an hour.

I wear blue light blocking glasses after 6PM every night. It has helped my sleep TREMENDOUSLY. That and my dad currently has macular degeneration, which apparently can be caused by blue light. I'm assuming it's from the years of him staring at the TV. No thanks for me.

Word on the street that the green LED is powered by plutonium. Nobody yet knows what super-powered properties red has, but a friend told that if you press press up up down down left right left right on the TV's remote, the red will project a portal to hell on the opposing wall of the livingroom!
