LG’s New 77-Inch Paper-Thin TV Is a Sight for Sore Eyes, Literally

Netflix and whoa

Tall, thin, colorful. Inspires awe and copious amounts of envy.

Just launched, the LG Signature OLED TV W, aka “Wallpaper,” is a one-of-a-kind beauty … and probably way out of your league. Or wallspace.

The specs: One-fifth of an inch thick screen, so it’s practically flush with your wall. A 77-inch display, 4K Ultra HD and multi-format HDR capability, the ability to render over a billion colors and Dolby Atmos surround sound. And it’s (of course) a smart TV.

The caveats: It’s $20,000. It only mounts on your wall via magnets. And all the ports are on a companion sound bar. Our thoughts? Spend about a third of that $20K and go with the 65-inch version. It’s still a stunner.
