Was surprised to get a notice today that LG's 8K, 88 inch OLED TV (OLED88Z9PUA) will ship next month (August)! We are almost crossing the border where one can replace a projector with a flat panel and gain better performance across the board. I was about to pull the trigger till I read the price: a cool USD $29,999.99. Why they went after the last 99 cent at this price, is beyond me.
Some interesting specs:
Not sure why they had to make the stand so heavy. I guess this is their way of justifying the price.
Anyway, likely these sets are made one at a time and bad pixels repaired before shipping and hence the high cost. Yields have to be very poor I imagine at this stage in the game.
Anyway, something to look forward to in the next few years.
