Panasonic made a 103" Plasma in the mid 2000s that I installed at least half a dozen of in South Florida alone. Those were ~600+ lbs IIRC, needed it's own reinforced wall, was ~$100k with wall mount and needed a dedicated 220v circuit. This disproves the "there is no market" qualifier and while it was a little smaller we needed 6+ full grown men to move in and install so logistically it was just as bad.

Message from China, X11G is primarily sold in offline stores, resulting in minimal online purchases from online stores like Taobao or JD, in fact, there are a lot of customers who actually purchase this particular model. Since it is sold in offline stores, you have a good chance to negotiate and bring the price down. In the case of the 115" X11G, you can actually get a deal for $9,100(65,000 CNY). If it's the more common and practical 85" X11G, then you can get your hands on it for just $2300 (but with the Dimming Zones scaled down to 5000+). BTW, Linus mentioned the problem of the feet, in fact, because TCL wants to avoid unexpected problems caused by customer self-installation in China, TV legs are provided by TCL's official installers during home installation.

Word of warning from a former commercial signage person: Many TVs do not like being balanced on the edge of their screen. Especially in the commercial space, and extra super especially with screens larger than 40" (which is most commercial signage screens). Putting pressure, especially the weight of the TV, on the bezel will destroy the screen in a fraction of a second. Things to know for home installation. That's why most competent installers work in pairs and carry at the corners/rear of the screen and only hold the top/sides of the screen itself.

Ultimately i went with an 85" as it was $10,000 less than the same panel 100" TV with a plan to replace the 85" TV when a 100"-115" TV is $2-3k. I think this will happen in the next 4-5 years.

Do not agree at all. A decent projector with a 110" screen is about $4500 US, and you can go to a bigger screen at will. An LCD is NOT scalable like a UST is and also you need to take particular care in not getting cracked by installing it or just day to day use. I would rather a kid throw a matchbox car at a stretched screen and have it bounce off than crack an LCD that size.

What's crazy, is I remember my dad paid like $12k back in the 90s for a rear projector 65inch, which at that time size was nearly unheard of back then. This is pretty close to the same price (not accounting for inflation) and is double the size!
@Al.j.Vasquez10 ай бұрын
65 inch is still very big, but accesible these days, i just bought a 65 inch QLED TV and it was around 580$ in Costa Rica, in my room it fills the gap between the 2 wall front speakers i have installed, so I'm maxed out, I can't imagine how 65" would have felt 30 years ago. To think that it took 30 years for TVs to be accessible, that projector was worth it.

Well, as mentioned in the video, the TV comes with free installation in China. why? Because most households in China lives in apartments, and this TV is simply too big to fit into elevators, so for installing the TV, you need to remove your windows (yes, and they are usually as big as a wall, from the celling to the floor) then hire a crane to deliever the TV through the empty windows...

@@inisipisTV You don't have any idea of how much more expensive a mansion is compared to an apartment in China, and actually, 'apartment' is not a word asociated with 'small' and 'cheap' here. There're 'apartments' cost more than 1 billion RMB, and the average price for a 100-square-meter apartment in Shanghai is around 5 million RMB. So, if you really really want a TV of this size, not saying everyone would do so, 100k RMB isn't that out of reach for most middle-class households, its price is just as the same as a brand new 23 Nissan Sylphy, it's simply a matter of choice, a car or a gigantic TV. And in fact, there were news that they installed TVs of 95 inches through the window like that, and also another news where a very famous rich second generation bought a Sony 100-inches TV for 0.5 million back in 2017, believe it or not, what I said are all simple facts.

The studs are holding the entire wall up, and if it's an exterior wall, they're also holding the floor above and the roof. Another 200kg for a TV is not even a rounding error. If the mounting hardware doesn't fall on stud layout, that's a minor complication; they'd just need to install something like a french cleat to the studs and then the TV to that.

My family just bought a 98-inch TCL TV two months ago. They cross-shopped with Sony and Samsung's similar spec TVs. Both can easily cost 50% more. They decided to put that money on a set of Samsung Q930C sound systems. My brother considered the TCL 115" TV, but it costs 3 times more, which is definitely too much for a TV. And the 115" TV is gigantic, it might be impossible to move it into the apartment😂😂 For a TV used in the living room, size means everything, EVERYTHING. The bigger the better. A larger screen can bump the experience so much. The TV is not perfect, but it is big, it is bright enough to watch in the daytime with all the windows/curtains opened, and have I said before? It is BIG. But have to say, similar to some other Chinese brands' home appliances, the hardware are always top-notch, there are always some glitches with the software😂
