Samsung (http://mashable.com/2016/01/05/samsung-8k-tv/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) and LG both (http://mashable.com/2016/01/05/lg-98-inch-8k-led-tv/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) an**unced 98-inch 8K TVs at CES and **w Changhong, a Chinese consumer electronics company, has one too. And it's still expensive.

It's one expensive screen, but compared to the $133,000 85-inch Sharp 8K TV (http://mashable.com/2015/09/16/sharp-8k-tv-japan/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) released last year in Japan, it's a hell of a lot cheaper.*

For the money, you'll get an OLED screen for really deep black levels, increased brightness and higher contrast and a 7,680 x 4,320 resolution that has four times as many pixels as a 4K UHD TV. The 8K TV runs on Android, supports High Dynamic Range+ (HDR) — because every new TV has HDR (http://mashable.com/category/hdr/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) and *it's the future of TV and content apparently — and Dolby Digital Plus .
