    Additionally, 116UX is said to deliver up to 10,000 nits of peak brightness and features a built-in 6.2.2-channel speaker system. It supports HDR10, Dolby Vision IQ and IMAX Enhanced, and runs on Google TV – at least in North America. Still, it has a slim profile of less than 40mm.

    10,000 nits of peak brightness? And what is a 6.2.2 speaker system? I am not even sure why the speaker system is built-in, if you’re buying such a product, chances are you already have a nice sound system.

      10,000 nits of peak brightness?

      Yeah higher peak brightness means better variance and a smoother gradient between black and white. Most content won’t get close to using the full spectrum, but the stuff that does looks amazing.

      And what is a 6.2.2 speaker system?

      The first number defines the number of main speakers, the second defines the number of subwoofers, and the third number defines the number of “height” speakers. That third dimension of audio is what makes content like Atmos sound so much more realistic than standard surround systems.

        Yep so, 6 speakers at the bottom, two subs (most likely at the bottom as well) and two speakers at the top… And then you better get an actual speaker setup because even something cheap will sound better.

          Don’t know about this one, haven’t looked beyond the headline, but not all TV sound systems are built into the screen. Some do come with legitimate external speakers.

          Many Atmos soundbars sound much better than they ought to; with what seems like real surround considering they’re, well, just a soundbar with no actual surround speakers. High end audio can be extremely complicated now, it’s not as simple as just having a speaker in a spot aimed at the couch.

      Ridiculous tv that probably has a 5 figure price tag

      Can’t be bothered to write an os, puts one of the most ad laden garbage tv os’ on it

      “Check out my $23,000 116” tv! The menu ads that pop up over the content you’re watching are so big!”

      Hisense makes shit TVs too, poor qc and cut corners on build quality. When they work they can look good but they are built as cheap as humanly possible in a product sector defined by manufacturers cutting corners everywhere

      I checked it out at ces yesterday, and it’s very impressive, but the microLED had kinda poor contrast… But maybe I was spoiled by Samsung’s QD OLEDs a couple booths over

    How is someone even going to transport a TV that big? At that point you may as well just get a projector. You’re going to need a dedicated theater room for such a large screen anyways.
