Hisense Presents Laser, Mini-LED, and Canvas Displays at CES 2024

Chinese consumer electronics giant Hisense showcased its latest audio-visual innovations at the 2024 CES show in Las Vegas this week. The company unveiled massive, ultra-high-end televisions as well as advances in its Laser TV lineup. Headlining Hisense's CES showcase was the 110UX, a 110-inch television with 40,000 backlighting zones and a searing 10,000 nits peak brightness. With unmatched contrast and brightness, Hisense calls it one of the most impressive 100+ inch TVs ever made. Also on display was the 98UX, a 98-inch set capable of 144 Hz refresh rates alongside over 10,000 local dimming zones. Beyond these flagship models, Hisense also introduced its thinnest Mini LED TV to date - the 75UX. At just 14 millimeters thin, Hisense claims it sets a new industry benchmark for slim design without compromising picture quality.
New models outside of the ULED X lineup include the U6, U7, and U8 TVs, featuring Mini-LED backlights, Dolby Vision, IMAX Enhanced support, and 144 Hz gaming support over HDMI 2.1 and ALLM. On the Laser TV front, Hisense showcased several innovations, including the world's first 8K Sonic Screen Laser TV, which uses the display itself to emanate cinematic sound. The Rollable Laser TV features an integrated ultra-short throw projector and an ambient light-rejecting screen.
Also unveiled was an Ultra Slim 4K Laser TV system touted as the thinnest in its class at just 1.57 cm deep. Additionally, Hisense partnered with projection leader Barco for its new Dynamic Light Steering Laser TV. This system uses Barco's proprietary technology to optimize images across various lighting conditions. Last but not least was the inclusion of the CanvasTV, a hybrid TV/artwork display display built around a wooden frame sitting flush with the wall. It will be used in exhibitions that need a TV to display artwork. Pricing and availability details for these 2024 Hisense TV and Laser TV models are still to be announced.

Might be a silly question, but does anyone actually want a 14 mm thin TV? Like, what is the point exactly? Just "it looks cool"? I can only see a multitude of downsides as far as production issues and reliablility are concerned for not a lot of practical gain. Would it being twice or thrice as thick be a problem for someone? I am not being snarky, I am genuinely curious since TVs are not my scene at all.

Check The Wall from Samsung, it’s around 150000$.
Wealthy people who want the most thin and bigger screen possible even if it seem strange for us mortals. So many failures points...

Years ago LG stated something like: we could easily make them thinner, but it's just impractical to handle if you do that.
It's ok to make the lighter, I guess, but as long as you need 3-4" for connectors and cables in the back, shaving a little thickness isn't going to do much.

Also, those projectors are nice and everything but... isn't that where the center speaker or soundbar goes?

Funny thing about "the wall'" was content displayed ran at 24fps. Totally wasted potential to demonstrate how smooth it could look with the right content.

It's mostly about aesthetics and weight at that point, esp. in the massive TV scale. When you get that massive, it gets harder to move around and install. The tradeoff is needing more care with handling and lifestyle, and better wire planning.

On the subject of massive TVs, Linus imported a Chinese equivalent a few months back and it's thicker than the new Hisense or Samsung equivalents, but costs less, but was thick enough to have bolt on carry handles and survive a bit of rough handling.Here's Linus' journey and buyer's remorse involving the big TV (3 separate videos).

Samsung's version, "The Wall", needs to be installed in sections with all the wiring done before the modules even go in (hence the massive cost), but looks quite nice in person (and when running a 4k video on it as I witnessed at a store demonstration), and Hisense' newest 110" monster will be a cheaper option to The Wall, but at the cost of playing roulette with a dead pixel and the lengthy time it'll take to have it replaced (at least The Wall's sections can be replaced individually).
