Turning off the "store" function reduces the brightness because, when displayed in a store, odds are it's set up in a very large room with industrial lighting. The "store" illumination setting allows it to look brighter under such conditions.

I think the reason why they were making fun of that being the only setting that changed was that usually store mode is like a demo mode that plays demo material to demonstrate all the features of the TV. Not just a brightness setting. Sure. It probably also would dim the TV because it wouldn't need to be as bright. But it wouldn't only be a brightness setting.

[@davidj.7779]

There are entire factory estates in China, usually old outdated facilities with shops that buy up "B" grade components: mostly QC rejects from major OEMs and use those parts to make "B" grade devices like this TV. They aren't even targeted at the western market. Most end-up in Africa and the Middle East. You see them in cheap regional appliance stores in places like Pakistan, Myanmar, Laos.

[@Dw7freak]

Now that you mention it, what if it's just a normal smart tv (still a 100 inch smart tv) with a heavy duty case/frame to make it "kick proof". That could explain the scuffing, as that's probably on the inside of the glass. I bet if you remove all the screws along the back perimeter, you might be able to remove that front glass and clean the inside. Or even keep it off to not have that glare from the case..... 5:40 THAT'S EXACTLY IT! Looking closer, they just put a smart tv in a case! This would also explain why it's so front heavy, as the aluminum frame would be very light. You can also see at 7:46 that there's a cover over the back part of the tv, which is normally the sturdiest part because of all the computer stuff. This might just be a smart tv that was made for the western market and got that frame put on it by this not-Samsung company and they're reselling it! THIS IS A FLIPPING RESALE! I mean... Benefit of the doubt, spending $2500 on a 100 inch smart tv still isn't that bad. Even the cheapest one I found after a quick google search is over 2 grand, and nothing even close to 150 inches. If they remove the glass plate to get rid of the glare and find a way to get a better internet connection with it (maybe through ethernet), I'd say they got their money's worth. If the sound's bad, that might just be because of the metal frame distorting it. Nothing a sound system couldn't fix. It might even be an actual Samsung smart tv in there.

21:27 isn't the most contagious laughter from Nicholas also the best as in: "you just basically threw away $2500 hahaha" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@MatthiewMarks]

I usually don't like reviews of bad products because it gives recognition to something that doesn't deserve to have any... but the tragic comedy in this video is too good!

[@funbucket09]

What comedy?

[@contytub]

@@funbucket09 ''imagine doing that...'' ... then realising it was actually done then and there. and the laughing your aff off

[@ShadowGirl-]

Wait but what about "returning" it?? Id really like to know what happens when you try to claim this.

[@TheItalianoAssassino]

Linus is simultaneously a boomer and a teenager somehow. 😂

[@aidenchristiansen2680]

21:21 Plouffe laughing has to be my favorite part

[@ronaldpm]

1:01 No wonder Yvonne doesn't agree with Linus

[@DJphotoandtech]

"Linus and Plouffe review hot garbage" is my favourite category of LTT videos!

[@Tomboarder15]

I mean, at 0:36 it is clearly stated that it is 221cm by 125cm, which gives a diagonal of ~253,9 cm, so basically 100 normal inches. What is the problem here (apart ofc from the original 150inch claim)? No one said anything about 150 cms...

[@technicolourmyles]

I'm not getting where you're getting confused here. They're saying the 150 inch version is 221*125 centimetres. That does not equal 150 inches.

[@Tomboarder15]

@@technicolourmyles watch again, Linus stated that the cm measurements are wrong, and then something about 150cm. However there are no mentions of it being 150cm diagonal anywhere. The measurements in cm for the bigger TV were in fact, correct.

[@paitor]

@@Tomboarder15 I also reached to this point and stopped when Linus couldn't do basic math. Now considering if I should even finish this video.

[@AnotherAustin-z7b]

​​​​@@paitor I don't understand what you all are talking about. You're talking out of your ass and acting like he's wrong when you're confused, being disagreeable for no reason. The part he showed which gave the dimensions at the OP's timestamp was a message he received from the seller after he sent them a message concerning the issue with the size, and those dimensions do not match the sizes they are next to. They said that it was "150" because it was 150cm like he confused the measurements, but 150cm is 59 inches, then he shows the listing which shows the 100 inch tv option being listed with the 145cmx64cm, which is not 100 inch either. You can see in the listing that it says 100 inch 120 inch LCD TV, and there are multiple options to choose for the different sizes. The seller was trying to convince him that it was the measurement in CM when that is not true. Even the larger size listed with 220cm x125cm is only a 100 inch diagonal. The smaller one listed would have a 65 inch diagonal. So their centimeters listed in their message to him are the correct CM but the inches are nowhere close and a quick reference to the Pythagorean theorem can confirm that. The listing saying 100 145x84 is the 65 inch diagonal, so while their centimeter measurement is correct if that is a 65 inch TV calling it a 100 inch TV is inaccurate. They probably should have checked the size in CM though, big fail for his team not catching that.

[@Verlisify]

Plouffe's joke had me in tears too

[@TumanWK]

"She's trapped behind the glass!", this one had me uncontrollably laughing! 😂 Even when I rewatched it. KZbin defaulted to 1080p, I had to change it to 2160p to make sure I was getting the best experience.

[@kc0otv1]

This 10x better content then what you all used ro do . Keep up the good work

[@LzysGraphics]

TCL, Sony, Hisense usually have ARC as one of the highest bandwidth HDMI ports.

[@TheAdatto]

Well his laat video of the 110' hisense says otherwise. Hdmi 1 arc port was 60hz 4k. Rest was 144hz 4k

[@LzysGraphics]

@@TheAdatto That's interesting, but definitely not the norm, it's also just two HDMIs with 4k 144hz, the rest are HDMI 2.0. As for it not being the norm, you can check out the U8 and U7 series to see that Hisense makes the eARC port one of the two HDMI 2.1 ports usually, same as Sony with their latest TVs including the flagship Bravia 9 and A95L. TCL has actually changed course recently and has begun putting the eARC port on a regular HDMI 2.0 port after the 2022 lineup released but before then they also put eARC on the 2.1 ports. This is the most baffling to me considering that AVRs have had HDMI 2.1 inputs for quite some time now, and soundbars have just recently begun including hdmi 2.1 inputs as well.

[@TheAdatto]

@LzysGraphics it would be logical to have the eARC be the best part. I was suprised that it wasn't on the Hisense Championship Edition. Maybe the arc part tskes too much bandwidth?

[@LinusTechTips]

Some sound bars don't have pass through so eARC on the best port can be a risky move.

[@iris4547]

i own a hisense uled and the earc is not a 4k144hz port like hdmi 3 and 4.

[@Nutella387]

At 7:50 that decryption thing you said is most likely, at least on the tv’s I have around my house and probably Europe is an CI or Common Interface card slot, basically your broadcaster would give you these for accessing channels that you need to subscribe extra on top of the selection you have, example is HBO channels are encrypted where I live so that could be what slot is for but prove me wrong

[@webfischi]

That is correct, in most countries you need a CI module and a decription card, to even watch the TV channels from your country. In the good old days you could watch German, Austrian and Swiss TV near lake constance when it was terrestrial analogue, from the day it got digital Swiss TV was gone, they are on 13° East, while German and Austrian satellite TV is on 19.2° East, terrestrial is a joke you only get public TV and freenet, to watch freenet channels your TV needs to be connected to the internet, it's the dumbest thing I've ever seen. If you tune the TV to a freenet channel, all it receives is a URL to load a webstream.

[@Murka88]

Linus: "😅 I'm really sorry" The TV: "I WAS IN THE POOL!"

[@xeres14]

Uhm, no. @2:06 the color is 150 inches. I hope you got all that color though.

[@FrostclawPlays]

21:26 I think this is the hardest I've ever laughed at an LTT video, but I couldn't possibly come close to Plouffe, man sounded like he was about to have an asthma attack. 🤣

[@ConeJellos]

If anyone ever asks Plouffe if he likes this job he should just show them the clip where he's laughing. He is living the dream.

[@martindusek6088]

9:24 "... Taiwan or other country ..." seems like Chinese manufacturer made an oopise. 😁

[@bradbrowatzke7236]

Andy is the star in this, giving the live translation of everything. Yay for multilingualism! Linus and Plouffe are perfect foils for one another in this, you guys kept me laughing the whole time. Great video, and more ammunition for the "buyer beware".

[@davidprodigy5833]

It was the most i laughed in a long time

[@camtoufan3704]

Not a bad investment, generated 2.3m views for you.

[@BlackHoleForge]

4:36 they took a note from apple, it's $600 for the tv, and $2,000 if you want the handles included.😂

its a CI! (Common Interface) in the UK theyre on every TV (past like CRT) and ut is to access paid Terrestrial or satellite channels. 10:30

[@Aepek]

22:11 reflections…..YES PLEASE. New safety feature built into tv for seeing BEHIND THEM. Best funny video ever!

[@lotarion]

The kinda tv you wanna have in your room straight across the door. Parents got no chance lol

[@Galiant2010]

That guy in Scream drunkenly yelling "Behind you... Behind YOU!" at the TV would've finally been aware of what was going on behind him.

[@crherm]

"A lot of TVs have a 'store' setting because it will go through demo footage and stuff. Here the store setting is to juice the brightness" That's actually almost always what the Store Mode is on TVs. People call it "torch mode" because it just makes the TV as bright as possible to look good in a lit showroom. Any demo footage you see in a showroom TV comes from an attached source of some kind. Not from a special mode on the TV.
