Sharp offers the first 85in 8k Ultra HDTV for 120.000 euro
Sharp released its first 8k-tv dubbed the LV-85001, this is a world-wide exclusive for Sharp being the first to offer a Ultra HDTV at such an incredibly high resolution. The screen is 85" and has a 7640x4320 pixels resolution.
At 7640x4320 / 85-inches that would mean an incredible 104 pixels per inch, a fourfold of 4K Ultra HDTVs and that's 16x more pixels opposed to a Full HD screen. The Brightness levels are set at 1000 cd/m2.
To drive such a resolution four HDMI cables are used, in the future there of course will be a solution that can manage that resolution with one cable. To date it is unknown if manufacturers are developing 8k-televisions for home usage, it really is overkill in a living room, as such manufacturers focus more on easier to implement features such as better pixels and HDR.
The photos we think are of the prototype, the screen will be available for 16m Yuan, which is roughly 120K euro and yes that is obviously intended for industry and corporate usage.

And to buy one you need to collect kidneys from dead people.

By the time 8k content is available, it will be obsolete, tech-wise, spec-wise..

I hope by the time 8k is mainstream, we'll have HDMI 3/4 that is capable of 16k 60Hz with a single cable

The only place I see it useful is medical education... really... I believe the tech comes from that branch, where it actually does help and is useful. Phone Cameras are capable os such resolution already, paired with proper optics the same sensors can act also as a medical inspection instrument.

Completely agree, I'm concerned that my 4K TV is going to be obsolete before we see any real volume of content for it.

SuperMHL cable is currently in development.
72Gbit/s bandwidth compared to DP1.3s 25.92Gbit/s or DP1.2s 17.28Gbit/s
Enough bandwidth to allow 8k @ 4:4:4, 12bit color and 60hz.
But, i personally hope to see a 5120x2160, 4:4:4, 10bit color, 200hz monitor single tiled on SuperMHL. Which would take up 66.35Gbit/s. (5120x2160x30x200)

Exactly what I want lol.
An ultrawide TV or Monitor with those specs.
I downsample 5120x2160 to my ultrawide monitor.

That's why the first price is given in Yuan ...

Out of interest, would any current GPU actually be able to output a game to this? I know that only very old games would actually have anywhere near a playable frame rate, but can it actually be done?

If I wanted a screen that large I'd be looking at projectors over Tv's personally.
