Samsung's massive Ultra HD TV is now available for a massive price.
Samsung has finally announced plans to release its gigantic 110-inch 4K display, surpassing the company's previously available 85-inch model. The mammoth sized TV is now on sale in South Korea and will expand to more markets including China, the Middle East, and Europe within the next couple of months.
The LCD display features a resolution of 3,840 x 2,160, giving it four times the number of pixels found on a traditional 1080p HDTV. The set measures an impressive 2.6 meters by 1.8 meters and is geared toward business and government applications such as video conferencing. An exact price was not revealed, but the Associated Press has reported that the display will retail for about $150,000, giving the enormous set an equally enormous price tag.
Currently the TV is only available through custom orders and a US release date has not been announced. Samsung is expected to detail more new 4K displays at CES next week, so stay tuned to High-Def Digest for all the latest news.
