OP, do you have a marble table under all that stuff? Must be heavy as hell, haha.
I really wish efforts were made by TV manufacturers to improve motion clarity instead of fucking resolution and size. Yeah, 4K stuff on OLED looks amazing, but my old plasma at 1080p is so close that the jump in resolution is basically worthless. And OLED needs some motion adjustments to give almost the same motion rendition as plasma - which, in turn, is nowhere near a CRT when it comes to motion. I remember playing Metroid Prime on plasma out of a Wii. It was fine, I thought. Then I replayed it on a CRT out of a GameCube and OH. MY. GOD. It’s like your eyes are getting a massage. Older games look just buttery smooth on CRT. No other display technology can do that still, and I don’t think any of the current techs ever will.
As for size... there’s really all these people with a living room large enough to accommodate a 75+ incher, let alone sit at a reasonable distance from it?
Is it really physically impossible to make a truly flat CRT set? I remember some of the later Samsung models being somewhat ”flatter” (still large and hefty, though) but suffering from horrible distortion.
I remember reading something about SED, but that’s been abandoned long ago.
Is there any hope that some new and better display technology will be investigated in the future, or are we stuck forever with LEDs and all kinds of digital thingamagigs to improve motion rendition from them? If so, why are display makers so slow in improving their thingamagigs? Between gamers and cinema lovers, you’d think this should be, if not a priority, at least a serious concern by now. I seriously can’t imagine getting better IQ from currently available sources than a current sub-3K US$ OLED can get you. It’s hard enough to tell apart TV sets in the same price bracket as it is.
