You're right, you can customise a 21:9 screen to suit your room. It would be vastly superior to any projector in terms of HDR, it would include a multitude of other features, and it could even be 8K if you wanted.This is something I am watching with interest. It would solve the main issue with large screen - 120" plus home cinemas, HDR brightness and the fact if you did get bright enough you would lose any decent black levels. Some come on Samsung make these modular screens available at a sensible price (say less than £20k for a 150" screen) within 5 years. It would also mean you wouldnt need the level of light control or the need to cover your dedicated room in black velvet.. making the room more usable.
The full 2019 range will be announced in the spring. I've seen them already and while I can't say much at the moment, I think people will be very impressed.
That's perfect gift for my 30s....sorry 50s
Now, where is the 2019 standard range? too much to ask for mini led?
Yes the 75" TV was also modular. I think it makes sense, you perfect manufacturing a single-sized module, that ensures reliability and allows for economies of scale to keep the costs down.The 75” was modular too? This tech is soooo far off production-ready.
I CANT WAIT THAT LONG TO KNOW !!!! hope there will be some leaks or announcement..The full 2019 range will be announced in the spring. I've seen them already and while I can't say much at the moment, I think people will be very impressed.
I think the fact that they’re keeping you a good distance back from the 75”er suggests the seams would be visible at the correct viewing distance, no? I think the milestone we should look out for is a 1piece, non-modular 75”er. That gets you a size people are currently buying for their living rooms, without unsightly seams.Yes the 75" TV was also modular.

Any chance of seeing a QD OLED prototype at ces?The full 2019 range will be announced in the spring. I've seen them already and while I can't say much at the moment, I think people will be very impressed.
If you see Phil video and note Steve comments, they are using blocks...they can shape the tv to any size and shape like lego...I think the fact that they’re keeping you a good distance back from the 75”er suggests the seams would be visible at the correct viewing distance, no?

Obviously, the work would have to continue to minitiarise down to 65 and 55.
Yes I did see that part of the vid. I think it was more a showcase of the modularity & aspect flexibility rather than any critical viewing. I dont think it’s mentioned what size that installation was either. I guess we’ll know more pretty soon.If you see Phil video and note Steve comments, they are using blocks...they can shape the tv to any size and shape like lego...
I don't think size is an issue as much as the manufacturing cost...
a good 3 years away but still super exciting...
Even if they could make large sheets, isn’t there an advantage to a tv being modular in construction? I mean, if a whole panel is scrapped because of a small defect, with a modular tv you just remove the module and the rest is useable. I like the idea of having 4 50” TVs around the house, then combining them in the lounge or garden for a 100” screen during a big event like World Cup or athletics. It would also allow 4 4k panels to be combined to make an 8k panel.The 75” was modular too? This tech is soooo far off production-ready.
