Samsung's New The Wall Display: Is 583 Inches Large Enough?
by Anton Shilov on February 11, 2020 8:00 AM EST
Samsung has expanded its The Wall lineup of Micro LED-based displays with two models featuring 437 and 583-inch diagonals. The monitors are intended for commercial use, though nothing can stop someone with deep pockets from buying such a 'television' for home use.
The new 437 and 583-inch Wall displays from Samsung feature an 8K resolution and are based on new Micro LED modules. Previously, Samsung’s The Wall lineup included 75-inch, 146-inch, 219-inch, and 292-inch models.
Here's the previous generation 146-inch model
Samsung does not disclose exact specifications of its new Wall displays as well as Micro LED-based modules (called cabinets) uses to build them. Previously, Samsung’s Micro LED cabinets featured 250 - 2000 nits brightness (regular/peak), around 10,000:1 contrast ratio, a 16-bit color depth, up to a 100/120 Hz refresh rate, as well as 155°/135° horizontal/vertical viewing angles. Given the overall size of the latest displays, the newest modules probably have a lower pixel density, but for commercial applications like digital signage this may not matter a lot.
The largest versions of Samsung’s Wall displays will be available for pre-order starting this week. Prices are not disclosed, but if you have to ask, you probably can't afford it.

Well at least you don't have to play the panel lottery with these.boeush - Tuesday, February 11, 2020 - link
As a bonus, the power bill for it will be only slightly less affordable than the screen itself. As a further bonus, you probably won't ever again need a space heater. On the flip side, for those hot days you might want to invest in a few additional air conditioner systems...brunis.dk - Wednesday, February 12, 2020 - link

I'm not buying it. There is nothing to watch on TV anyway, on any of the thousand channels, just garbage (ok, maybe some good stuff on history channel).flyingpants265 - Thursday, February 13, 2020 - link
