I bought the TCL X11G Max, the biggest single-piece TV on the market at 115”. Actually, it’s not really on the market as it’s China-only but I somehow got it here and three people mounted it on my wall. But now that it’s set up, is it any good? Does it REALLY have over 20,000 local dimming zones? Are giant TVs going to destroy the market for projectors??

Buy an Alienware AW3423DW 34" 175Hz QD-OLED Curved Monitor: geni.us/uI3BPnL

    I’ve never heard of a more Linus thing than keeping a 115 inch Tv
  • @oimate351
    Just call it the compensator TV already
  • you can always tell when linus is genuinely excited by a product, and it makes videos so much better

    In China, someone will call you in advance to ask you the size of the elevator (if the elevator is not big enough, they will ask the stairs, and pay extra for going up the stairs), and at the same time determine whether the installed wall or desktop is feasible. Then, about a week or two later, an installation master will contact you and arrive at the goods. He will make an appointment with you to install them at the door. There will be an unsealed minivan delivered to the door, and at the same time, 2~3 people will install them at the door. In my impression, if there is a bad point in TCL TV, you can actually ask for a replacement -form one comment on ltt cn -ps TCL also comment they plan to bring it to outside China

    Honestly, having this tv in the theater room is not a bad idea, it looks big enough to be an actual theater screen. It's quite a shame that this isn't also in America or Canada, it would be a huge hit in the future for this tv.
  • @sleev1091
    Loving that you produced and posted this video in HDR! Hope to see that more on the channel.
  • @swimstiger
    For your dead pixel, you know that some pixels won't work properly because the liquid crystal is stuck. Then if you repeatedly play a drastically changing image in this area, the liquid crystal may work again, and you will fix your dead pixel. Sometimes heat (using a hot water bottle) can speed up the process. This won't necessarily solve your problem, but given that replacing a screen is difficult, it might be worth a try.
  • @RGBeanie
    After this, I don't want to see Linus complaining about basic stuff going "missing" to staff 😂
  • @fylgjafox249
    I just want to mention that the HDR on this video hooked me better than the Thumbnail or the title. The vibrant color and contrast are amazing.
  • I'll say it again. This thing honestly is so crazy that it even looks incredible in footage, having been filmed, prcoessed, and output on to a fricken monitor like when you see OLEDs in footage
  • @adnamamedia
    It was really hard to conceptualize the sheer size of this TV until you said "every split screen player gets their own 55" tv" 😳🤯 truly insane
  • @nerdhu9018
    According to the installer, contact Taobao customer service to turn on the engineering mode. In this mode, you can get many additional settings to solve the problems mentioned in the video.
  • @bazyt1
    I remember convincing my dad to get me a 15 inch tv for my bedroom, instead of a 14 inch, back in the 80s. TV/monitor tech is incredible value these days (for a regular tv 😂).
  • That's absolutely bonkers and I love it. I also appreciate you doing this video in HDR, having gone for the sitting closer option with a 65inch OLED.
  • @gobnujinten1933
    Old school fix was to cycle rgb onto that individual pixel and rubbing it gently whilst doing so. Usually works for stuck pixels but might work here.
  • @WilliamTM
    I hope this means we’ll see more (or all?) LTT videos in HDR from now on. This looked amazingly good compared to every other video you guys make! ❤️❤️❤️
  • @_Dearex_
    Dead pixel sucks but knowing it is there is way worse than the actual defect. I bought a used 35" monitor a while ago and it has 3dead pixels next to each other. Was a little mad until I noticed I sometimes can't even find them when looking for them in a game/video 😄
  • @matthewjalovick
    I genuinely think this is the best color graded HDR video you guys have put out. Some of the earlier ones I wasn’t too keen on. But this? This is good stuff.
  • @ZwaaiHaai
    Giving updates on how its going after a few months is great. Thanks Linus
  • Awesome TV. It was also nice to see that this video was in HDR. I could totally understand what you meant about the brightness and how sometimes it can make you squint. When using a laptop with 1100 nits in a dark room when watching a movie or video, sometimes it does just pop out of nowhere and make you react. Also the first few minutes when you had the TV showing off content it was blasting the brightness on my end as well. Awesome experience and great content as always!
