over 100% of the BT.2020 pro color space
What does this mean? BT.2020 already requires pure monochromatic subpixels (which you're not gonna get with LCD), so you can't go beyond that unless you use 4+ subpixels (in which case the extra colors will just go unused, since HDR video is delivered as BT.2020). Or is BT.2020 Pro a smaller gamut than BT.2020?
This article is the only thing I can find on Google which mentions "BT.2020 Pro", at least in English.
Now gimme one without smart tv bullshit
They exist, but they're called commercial monitors
Are there gaming screens like that though? Cause I thought commercial monitors were all slow response.
I've got a 43" Aorus 4k gaming screen for my desktop. 144Hz, freesync, 2 HDMI's a DisplayPort and a USBC. There is a 48" OLED as well, but I didn't have the space for it at the time.
After using a 4k 43" for a monitor for a few years, I definitely both recommend it AND wish companies would make 8k ones.
Does anything useful even come in 8K at this point? I saw it as a spec last time I went television shopping, but it seemed like something that wouldn't be useful for another decade.
8k is effectively dead
He should have said commerical displays, which are basically TV's rated for long continuous use e.g. digital signage.
I haven't dealt with them in some time, but I would imagine many, if not most, do not include consumer smart tv features, although they probably have other embedded smart tech to help with stuff like signage.
The smart TV part is conceptually okay, but the bullshit is unspeakable. I actually like that TVs have apps for the streaming services and stuff, if they didn't have to be evil about how they implement it. But they're evil, so here we all are, wanting completely dumb TVs.
I don't really agree that is conceptually okay. TVs and computers have drastically different life cycles. That TV will still be kicking probably a decade after the internal Smart TV computer is uselessly underpowered. This same problem is arguably even worse with cars.
Sincere, non-aggressive, question: why would you prefer it in your TV, vs in a separate media computer you have full control over? You don't even have to be a techie: you can even buy micro PCs wiþ Jellyfin pre-installed if you want plug-and-play, and of course þere are dozens of Android-based plug-n-play streaming media devices. Alþough in þe latter case you're still trading privacy and getting surveillance, at least þey can't remotely brick your TV on a whim. Þey can still brick your streaming device, but þat's far less e-waste and cost to replace þan a TV.
Why do you like having it in þe TV? Purely convenience? Better all-around integrated experience? Simplicity?
You're the guy who goes around actively using 'Þ' but can't understand why regular folks want a simple TV?
A TV with an OS and apps is not "simple". Simple is a screen that displays what I plug into it.
It's not going to be cheap, though — in the US, the 65-inch model is officially priced at $3,499.
I’d happily pay that for a pc-gaming quality dumb panel the size of a traditional tv.
But ima need 3 or 4 display port inputs.
I also probably want full sized display port inputs over usb-c form
HOPEFULLY this is the beginning of the end for HDMI.
$3.5K TV says it isn't
Ah so close!
If it lacked any smart tv features and had displayport it would be my next tv.
Tldr; This article reads like my own particular preferred brand of copium.
Nvidia Tried this with BFG (Big Format gaming Displays) but most of them never made it to market. I think Microcenter carried one model and it was expensive for what you were getting. Back in those days having the nvidia gsync sticker easily double the price of any monitor and making it a ~60" tv wasn't an exception.
I can't be the only person who wants display port but I fear this must have to do with the HDMI Forum being the current cable standard mafia and supporting anything other than HDMI is like giving up an inch of the total control they have over the TV industry. They (Sony, Phillips, Toshiba, Hitachi, etc) are effectively colluding against TV buyers and controlling the market and eliminating competition.
With that being said, the USB-C port on these TVs has been around and Ive seen other reviewers show that the high sense implementation is not the panacea (yet) that gamers desire. Its more for like, plugging in your Macbook to your TV.
Still, if this TV came out tomorrow and Wendell from Level1techs said "your Linux pc can get 4k, 120hz, HDR FreeSync out of this" and showed it working, $3500 dollars wouldn't stop me from buying it.

I wish I was this rich to impulse buy something that expensive because a man on the internet said something positive abouti t.
Well, you see, when you know and understand Linux well, your chances to become rich are increasingly higher.
Does it act as a dumb monitor? Can all smart TV features be permanently disabled?
You can prolly just not connect it to Wi-Fi but I seriously doubt any TVs these days don't have this bullshit.
Hisense UR9 RGB, but note that the port is on the left bezel of the panel. Hopefully saved you a click.
I love that the author refers to Hisense as "it" rather than they. Corporations aren't people!
Sounds great! I'll gladly pay $200usd for it.
I skimmed the article and didn't see any mention of price, but I expect it to be 10x what I'm willing to spend on a display.
Also if it's a smart tv I'm no longer interested at all.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
