Spotted this via T3. It's a very considered purchase for those with the deepest pockets and largest of living rooms!
Doesn't seem to have a price reduction as such. Most sites selling at higher prices. However, I'm not a Costco member so unable to see their price.
Samsung is currently offering up to £1,000 when you trade in your existing TV. It's even throwing in delivery and installation that it claims is worth £585. Plus, you get a free Samsung Q600C soundbar, to boot, which usually retails at £599.
Oh, and there's a free wall bracket - usually £229 - and a five year warranty. Finally, how's about six months of Disney+ for good measure? That'd normally set you back £47 on its own.
SAMSUNG 98" Q80C QLED TV: KEY FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS
The QLED panel in this TV should deliver stunning pictures: QLED is in some of the best Samsung TVs right now, delivering near-OLED contrast and eye-searing brightness, and a Samsung QLED is currently the best 75 inch TV you can buy.
The panel is controlled by Samsung's 4K Neural Quantum Processor with AI upscaling – something that's essential in a TV this big – and Samsung's own Supersize Picture Enhancer, which is based on 20 neural networks and analyses the picture to optimise it for that large panel. There's also Quantum HDR+, PANTONE certified colours and a blue light-reducing EyeComfort mode for those late night box set binges.
The sound system here is 40W with Dolby Atmos, Object Tracking Sound Lite positional audio and support for Samsung's Q-Symphony. That's the system where you can team up your TV with one of Samsung's best soundbars – the bundled Q600C is one of them – and your TV's speakers will become part of the wider surround sound setup. It's very clever and sounds fantastic.
Like other 2023 Samsung TVs, you get Samsung's Tizen smart TV interface, which includes Alexa, the Samsung Smart Hub and the Samsung Gaming Hub as well as the usual streaming apps such as Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV, NOW TV and BT Sport. For gamers there's Motion Xcelerator Turbo Plus, which delivers VRR 120Hz 4K over HDMI 2.1 (all 4 HDMI ports are HDMI 2.1), and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro to reduce screen tearing and stuttering.

sorted bySeem to suit casuals only with disposable income who want the biggest TV at home, or fulfill some niche such as environment constraints one has to work with (e.g. best pic quality in windowed daily living room with no in-wall wiring at >=4m viewing distance)
Hopefully I will be able to claim this on expenses too. Thanks OP (edited)
In essence what matters is not the DPI but the angle subtended at your eye at the viewing distance.
Re price: I suspect something like this is more likely to be used in a home cinema room (or a commercial setting)..i can imagine scenarios where a 98" screen is more suitable than a projector and vice versa.
And frankly if someone has a house large enough for a home cinema then the cost of a projector or 98" TV will not be the deciding factor.
Funny story - I was in a board meeting last week and someone needed to link their laptop to the projector.
The staff of the serviced office company could not get the connections to work and in the end one of the young ladies got frustrated and climbed onto the board table and stretched up to connect a HDMI lead direct to the projector (which is suspended from the ceiling) and a laptop on the table.
First time i have ever had anyone climb onto the table in the middle of a board meeting.
Even when the projector was running though we had to have the blinds down to read the screen from the far end of the room and the contrast was poor and the text barely readable.
It's all to do with maths.
Suggests the smallest object the eye can discern is about 0.1mm - and that is at about 25cm. Also raises another issue - the human eye is not very efficient and only responds to 1-4% of all photons hitting it.
And whilst diving down this murky hole this is from AO:
'There’re many things to consider when choosing the size of TV. You want it to suit the size of the room (instead of swamping everything in sight) and you’ll want to think about the distance you’ll be sat from it too. If your sofa’s around 8 feet from the TV, you’ll want a 50-inch screen. If the distance is around 9 feet, we’d recommend a 55-inch TV. And for a 10-foot distance, we’d suggest 60-inch TVs or bigger.'
It is from an AO help page - which includes such helpful information such as 'A 70-inch TV is really big'. (ao.com/hel….ds ) (edited)
