[@electrikoptik]

If "my dad can beat up your dad" was a TV.

[@TorontoJon]

Hahaha! That was a perfect analogy. :)

[@Caleb_Denison]

Haaaa! 😂

[@blacksheep7910]

Classic dad joke 🥲

[@Bramblebush5948]

How is this historic? Linus tech had a 115" 5 months ago.

[@electrikoptik]

@@Bramblebush5948 Who tf cares about Linus and his team of woke and LGBTQ crew

[@BettMagnett]

I feel like this is exactly what unboxing and setting up a 65 inch TV felt and looked like to us 10 to 20 years ago back in the mid 2000s to mid 2010s

[@AlbertStewart]

To be fair, they probably WERE about 200lbs back then lol

[@Neojhun]

Yep helped a friend move and setup a 65" Samsung LED in 2010. Into a house with not high ceilings guessing 9ft. It looked crazy big on that relatively small wall. Wild that is the norm now.

[@mrcrazyjonpresents4312]

its still great setting up a 65 inch samsung i got my brothers after he passed away Tv is now 4 years old and was barely used by him as they kept the auto turn off still on it so it went off after 4 hours and most of the time stayed off Tv like brand new and curved

[@hawleygriffon9290]

Only got a 65" earlier this year. Sony recommends 2 people to move and install it. Since I want to pedestal mount it instead, this will be a big job in a small room for a single person.

[@genericreference6969]

Really, a 115 inch TV is like 4 55 inch TVs all tiled together, so I can see why it is do heavy

[@Caleb_Denison]

Hey everyone! As fun as this was, the review will be even better! What do you want to know? Shooting soon! P.S. Price is $20K for now, but we expect that will drop quite a bit in time.

[@CasepbX]

How good the game mode is of course.

[@paulbmiller24]

Looking forward to the review! I'm curious if it has some of the same issues as the 98" (seemingly all software problems thankfully). Currently, the sticky picture settings between modes, video processing delay with sub-60Hz refresh rates, and color shift with RGB signal (PC connection, seemingly resolvable with the Tint slider) are holding it back a bit, but overall happy with the performance after some moderate tweaks.

[@connerbrenner5371]

How it compares to the upcoming Hisense 110UX!

[@josepheden7178]

Do you think this TV would be a good option for a church looking for large displays on the left and right side of their sanctuary?

[@bigdaddylongnut]

Power draw and the heat coming off the set. I have a 75 inch QM8 and it heats up the whole area it hangs in. It is hanging on a wall but I have it swiveled out a good 14 inches with an ac vent blowing down right above it and the heat coming off the set it tremendous. Can only image what this beast will be putting off.

[@mikemcdonald5147]

I once bought a tv from amazon and it came with white glove install which I was shocked. They came to my home unboxed, hooked up, explained remote, asked if I had any questions and took all the trash with them. AMAZING!!!!

[@jesussavedme964]

I can't wait for this to hit $5,000 !!!

[@AdamCate]

i would honestly buy it for half price @10k

[@jesussavedme964]

@@AdamCate I think that might happen , sometime in the future .Maybe Black Friday 2025 !!!

[@user-oq6sc1qm4j]

I saw the 98 inch version of this tv selling for 5 grand that is a monster also.

[@webberfan1234]

Imma do the 98” that’s 2k. F it

[@CasepbX]

My Samsung projector was $4000. So yeah, I'd spend 5K on this.

[@jasonhill9088]

Oh! Man! That box would make a sweet fort!

[@Caleb_Denison]

I was so tempted to

[@hdguy350]

My cat would love that box!!! 😹

[@koolrunnings3135]

Thank you DT. This was quite a blast. A TV raised and unboxed by the neigbourhood. It took a village. I look forward to the indepth review. Can you imagine it this was micro LED. Well, one day we will get there affordably. The good thing is my house has the room.

[@TheRouger7]

By the way, as an installer, I highly recommend when you pull the screen protector off, you pull upward from the bottom edge. Not that you need to start from the bottom, but if you pull downward or straight across, the screen protector leaves tiny little pieces that are a real pain to remove.

[@KillaninjaFC]

I was cringing when he was standing 3 feet away from the edge pulling with all his might horizontally... Major tipping hazard for one thing, and way too easy to rip the film as you mentioned

[@Michaelbrian777]

I had a optoma 4k projector and a 115"screen. The texture detail was insane. If it hits $5k to 7k i'll grab one for sure. 115 is all you will ever need.

[@ebbhead20]

Unless you have my dream. To have a tv so big that an elephant and a giraffe at a watering hole are all life sized. You'd want the Sony Liquid Display modular tv for that. But you'd need a wall thats more like a musem for dinosaurs to hang it up. But then again if you can buy that system, the walls wont be a problem.

[@TorontoJon]

11:00 Imagine having at least three of those 115 inch screens side by side for flight simulator enthusiasts. :)

[@GordonJones88]

Vesaro Flight Tier 5 - comes pretty close.

[@Caleb_Denison]

OMG! 😮

[@SpidermanandJeny]

I think a lot of ppl that don't get motion sickness would suddenly be prone to motion sickness and the size would be utterly insane. Where would you even put such a setup? The only thing crazier is that video Linus recently did with setting up a GIANT projector set-up at his new building.

[@NextNate03]

I think the tvs would be to big for a 3 screen setup. Something like a VR headset might be a better option.

[@SithLordAnakin]

Damn a TV you can ACTUALLY have on the floor and its Eye level while sitting on a couch.

[@Barbarapape]

This is the easy day, the fun will start when you have to repack it to go back. I can appreciate the size of this set, a friend has a 120" motorised projector screen and your jaw drops as it descends from the ceiling and the curtains adjust to the ratio that you wish to watch. I have to make do with a 60" projector screen, but that is the maximum my room can take. Enjoy this monster TV whilst you can

[@randolphblack2554]

Magnificent screen, Caleb and company. I am glad that you were able to safely unpack it without incident. I shall await your review.

[@paulwoodrow1902]

Wow! Just, Wow! Looks incredible! Great video as always 👍

[@niccogarcia4124]

Seeing this video pop up on my feed just made my day complete. Been waiting for this video for a while now cant wait to see the whole review 😁

[@markmjames66mj]

I've got the 98" Samsung neo qled, but this moster would go on my wall perfectly.

[@asighlumbeatz4900]

Not going to lie I’m not a huge big screen tv guy but I would honestly get this and it doesn’t really need a tv stand cause of the legs

[@KG-un8uy]

This has got to be one of those moments when you take second and think you're blessed to have a pretty cool job.

[@TheFeist77]

I think I am ok with the "smaller" 98 and 100 ones for 15 grand less

[@soyelmismo17]

My 98 “ Sony is 10 months old … it list for 10 k Today it’s selling for 7500.00

7:18 That's got to be the most satisfying pulling of plastic film ever. Haha! :)

[@watchcommander2012]

Looking forward to the full review man that’s one beast of a TV

[@calvinsiwisa7461]

It's a Godzilla of TV's in South African stores, you get a 98" TCL TV for free when you buy this 115"TV 😊

[@guitarfocus]

is that for real? I sell tv's. At the moment, the biggest we have is TCL ''98, it's 1800€

[@milkyrabbit8881]

i love now Caleb looks like a happy kid on Xmas eve ❤️

[@juansanchez7784]

Thanks for showing us this enormous beautiful TV 📺 I’m waiting for November for the Black Friday weekend this year so I can get the 77” LG C4 Oled TV, by the way this is my favourite consumer electronics channel you have is brilliant cheers & peace ✌️

[@buttermilkoreo]

5:51 everytime I see those circular speaker shapes, I'm reminded of those Sony TVs which had them on either side of the TV in the front and i freaking loved that design so much (which i later realized didn't resonate with the majority so Sony had to drop your idea)

[@AbeelSiddiqui]

Ikr?? I thought I was the only one who thought that design was cool. But it make sense they removed it considering that a person buying a flagship tv probably also has a banger home theater setup

[@brunan-gi147]

I owned a 75 inch version of that TV. Beautiful design and the speakers actually sounded great but still did not beat a nice surround system that I had. I wish they were detachable to save space. Also, TVs real glass front paired with those speakers made it so heavy.

[@LeezahB]

Wow! Huge! Very fun video!

[@Professor5180]

So you think we wouldn't have noticed those SVS Ultra Evolutions you have? Can't wait for the review!

[@williamglassiterjr683]

Hi Mr. Denison, This TV is 😮silly crazy!!! I have two Xbox game consoles limited halo series. Having halo gaming will over whelm me and, I would need a mini movie room to accommodate this massive screen. Just seeing you unbox it lets me now that it will need to go on a wall😅!! I use to have that kind of space before I sold my home but man this is amazing and crazy 😜!! Can’t wait to see the rest of the review on this set. Please enjoy it. William 😇

[@kbhasi]

I remember when Linus from Linus Tech Tips got hold of one intended for sale in China, complete with a DTMB tuner and the custom software they use there, but the same TV is now available with an ATSC tuner and Google TV?! I can only imagine what his reaction would be.

[@celioguim]

I attended CES in January and was amazed when I first saw this TV. 😲 I had to struggle to find a spot on the floor just to get a closer look. 😅 I absolutely loved it and plan to buy one when the price drops. 😊 Right now, I'm enjoying my Hisense 100" U76N and I love it! ❤📺

[@jblank74]

Congrats on the TV, Caleb. I’d have been so nervous unboxing it.

[@blahblah6025]

Hahaha the synchronized hands on the hips. Like two dads admiring the lines of a well cut lawn😂

[@rockerkunal]

I ordered my 100 inch hisense today I cannot wait to get it tomorrow!

[@WildBillRidesAgain]

That's funny, and also sad for me.. I just bought the exact same one today and Best Buy can't get it to me till the 13th. That's going to be a rough wait. At least I got them to eat the delivery and setup charge.

[@rockerkunal]

@@WildBillRidesAgain yeah they just called me to tell me it's delayed a few days 😭 sad

[@davidwoods7861]

I got the 100" Hisense from Best buy. Delivery was a joke. So have friends there Incase. They sent a guy and a girl. I had to help them get it in the house and I'm a tiny guy. They refused to carry it downstairs. They set it up on the floor in the living room and ran. I had to have 4 friends come carry it into the basement. Best buy sucks.

[@Chuck-RETROGAMECAVE]

Looking forward the quality review. About 3 years ago, I bought a TCL TV for my daughter. It died right after the warranty ran out. I replaced it with a Sony (same size double the cost). The Sony is running perfectly as I expected. I hope the reliability of TCL has improved.

[@Slim2none1]

One thing, that I feel like some people forget, is that you really will want a large space to put this in (obviously) especially when considering heat. Something that big, that bright, in a small theater room would get toasty.

[@logicalChimp]

I nearly bought myself an 8k 88" display a few years ago... but when I went to a shop to view it in person, I felt like I got a suntan in 5 mins when standing a couple of feet away... and even though it was a cool day out, the shop had the aircon running, and it was uncomfortably warm from all the displays...

[@djchotus1]

I'm in EU. And got what I feel is the 85 inch version of this. The unboxing still haunts me. It's the exact same double box design for the x955. Epic TV

[@KamiLifeZ]

I love these videos!

[@DanielFowlerSr]

WOW! I love this presentation. Peter was funny about taking the TV Home. I am interested in having this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Do the legs come with it?

[@DTM1337]

This looks amazing, looking forward to the full review! How tall is Caleb? Great video as always

[@matttruffle]

Would love to see a review of the SVS speakers you got there. Been eyeing their new ultra evolution Titan or Pinnacle

Who’d wanna risk a Best Buy “unboxed” special deal on one of these beasts? Also included in the purchase price are the first 2 months of chiro and physiotherapy appointments.

[@JM-if1mo]

Looking forward to the SVS review!

[@TheAugust1234]

I was wondering if anyone would mention the Ultra Evolution speakers!

[@calebhelpingstine9093]

It’s beautiful! So massive! Good for movies!

[@notsorandumusername]

Caleb, when you return these TV's to the manufacturer (or shop) after testing, how do you deal with the now non-existent plastic that covered the screen when it was in it's box?

[@Antimonkat]

Looks good with the svs towers.

[@TorontoJon]

That 115 inch TCL TV looks amazing, Caleb! On the other hand, I have a $125 120 inch pull-down projection screen and a $65 1080p LCD projector (Yeah, not 4K, but I don't care), so for $190, I'll stick to my projection setup in my media room even if I have to dim the lights for movie nights while enjoying my LG 75 inch 4K LED TV for regular everyday viewing in my living room for the time being. Still, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it. Haha! Incredible! :)

[@whitecrowuk575]

Nowhere near this one though. No projection touches it really. Even if you spend 30k

[@andrewkamoha4666]

5:49 "A couple of subwoofers in the back" Nice! It would be interesting to see better speakers into regular TVs ...

[@mircomeser7217]

He meant Eugene belsky, he is producing the content running. It’s some of the highest quality hdr videos on KZbin. If you want to bring the best out of your tv this is the channels to watch. Along with Katy and Jacob schwarz

My lord.. can’t wait to see the review 😮

[@JJ-gl3qr]

4:53 always remember open the tv upside down so you can put the stand son the top then just upside down again

[@chrisbullock6477]

Be sure to keep that box in case you ever move! LOL! Don't think Home Depot. sales any tv boxes over 77inch😅

[@alex.delcastillo]

This is the mother of all TVs! Great video. And what’s up with Caleb leaving the camera man hanging and wiping his hand right after shaking hands 😮

[@littlewicky1]

Those are some nice SVS towers you got there!!

[@Caleb_Denison]

They are SO good!

[@littlewicky1]

Cant wait for the video

The opposing box openings protect it from coming open during shipment. Simply a stronger box.

Hi, so do you just keep this TV on the ground with it's legs?

[@deanclarke1181]

Wow Kaleb what a great TV enjoy.

[@marcse7en]

That TCL is the same size as the number of the house which my late parents bequeathed to me! ... 115 Chequers Avenue. 115 Chequers Avenue contains a "tiny" 65" LG OLED, with matching LG Direct Drive Washing Machine. I've not moved into 115 Chequers Avenue yet, and here in my apartment, I have a 50" Hisense ULED, and matching Hisense Washing Machine.

[@teinspringz]

Would you advertise it on Bring A Trailer when it comes time to upgrade to 117 inch?

[@earthoid]

My living room can easily handle 115 inches, but that BestBuy price of $20K is a bit more than my budget will allow!

What I like about the huge screen tv's is that you can have 4 smaller screens at once, or 1 huge screen

[@jody024]

Now we just need more mounts that support 1000x600 VESA size. Next model should come with a less glossy finish.

[@robertjsissonful]

Massive. Wish I had the room. You recently reviewed the TCL QM85. Do you believe it's a better unit than the Samsung QN90CD?

[@hawleygriffon9290]

2 things. 1) what are you using as a source for the display? 2) how do you fix something like this if the T-con or other part goes out? Thanks...

[@retroforce6919]

[@TheRouger7]

I looked on Best buy's website for this TV, the feet you have are different than what is pictured on their website. I'm curious if those feet you have were optional?

[@justintomblin]

Caleb’s presentations never disappoint. Regardless of the subject.

[@ThatSoddingGamer]

This TV is more than 4x my TV in size. I'm rocking a 55" LG C9 OLED and it's already pretty big considering I watch it from about a body length away in my recliner. Can't see myself ever getting something this big or expensive. With something that large even a short throw projector and its accompanying screen is better value and larger to boot. That said, a 100" OLED would be freakin' sweet.

[@RobertSelberg]

Can you please put on a lighter gray uniform image and test of it has vertical stripes in the panel? I bought the European c955 model a few months back and it had visible bars every 4 inch on the whole panel..
