News BOE's Insane 110-inch 16K Display Humbles Even the Mighty RTX 4090

BOE showcased its 110-inch 16K panel at Display Week 2023. This unit is a prototype built for the show and there's no timeline for when (if) it will be available.

The RTX4090 is only speced to support four 4K or two 8K displays at a time. I think you're going to need two of them to drive a single 16K display, and that only if it's actually configured as four separate 8K inputs (very early 4K displays had the option to be treated as four FHD displays).

Regarding 8K TVs, a friend of mine scored a 65" Samsung one on a Black Friday event last year for $1400 (USD). You can find them in that size all over for $1600 and a 55" for $1400. That said, I could tell no difference from my LG 4K OLED as far as pixel video tests. It didn't pop to me like going from 1080p to 4K, or even on PC gaming from a 1080p monitor to a 1440p monitor.

I'm a firm believer that the human eye has a diminished returns capability of seeing ever more increased pixel density resolutions and we've hit it at 8K. Now the larger the screen that's a different story of course, but not everyone has a living room capable of managing a 85" TV which is where an 8K TV would make the difference over a 65", or a 110" 16K over a 85" 8K.

I'm going to order 4 of these, I need a 32k screen for my bathroom wall. lol

Something has to go with that golden toilet you borrowed from Blenheim Palace am I right?

There is still no sign of Maurizio Cattelan’s “America,” which disappeared from a palace in England two months ago. But theories abound.

Given the size of this thing isn't it just like stitching 4x 4K panels together?

You mean is it just like stitching 4x 8K panels together? The answer to that is yes, and the reason it's that size is because on a 110-in 16K display individual pixels become indistinguishable from more than 21 inches away.

Brandon used the word bodacious... that's the real news here...

This. I still have a 1080p 65" TV that I'm going to keep until it dies. I sit just about at the limit of where I can distinguish individual pixels, so it seems like going to 4k, before then, would be a waste.

My PC at work has 4k @ 32" and it's borderline too small for the font sizes I liked at 2.5k @ 27". To get the same DPI, I'd need a 4k monitor @ 40". For a work monitor 40" is almost too big. Maybe 35-36" would be a decent compromise.

Anyway, the reason I'm posting here is that the killer app for these high-res panels is lightfield tech, IMO. Not that there's a huge market for lightfield displays, but it's something you need a ton of native resolution, to do well.

That's because once you add a microlens array, it cuts the resolution by about 1/5th to 1/9th in each direction. So, your 16k 2D display suddenly becomes a 2k or 3k lightfield display.
