This man unboxed the world’s biggest TV, and he couldn’t believe the size of it.
YouTuber Linus Tech Tips had purchased a 116-inch ‘monster of a TV’.
He was going to be the first person to unbox this beast, and he was understandably excited about it.
What he wasn’t so excited about was moving it from the truck to his home.

This man got to unbox the world’s biggest TV
TVs have often been referred to as the ‘small screen’, but there’s nothing tiny about this behemoth.
The Hisense 116UX is a 116-inch marvel, with 8,000-nits peak brightness, and the world’s first RGB MiniLED backlight.
That sounds fancy, right?
Well, we should think so – this TV would set you back $25,000.
And you’d need to clear a whole lot of space in your house to fit it in.
That’s not forgetting the packaging the TV came in – the thickest foam that Linus had ever seen, and a box so hardy that he could have used it as a dining table.
With the help of his friends, Linus moved the TV into an optimal spot in his house.
Not only is this thing wide, but it’s tall too – one of Linus’ pals had to stand on tiptoes to be seen over the top.
But once he was sat down and testing out the TV, Linus was swayed.
“There’s a strong possibility I’ll keep this TV,” he declared.
Popping on Disney’s Encanto, they were left in awe at the screen quality – the colors looked so vibrant.
Even the finer details of a character’s dress appeared so crystal clear.
“The [RGB backlight means] more color saturation, more color volume,” Linus explained.
By video’s end, Linus did a quick inspection of the screen to look for ‘dead pixels’.
Admittedly not a short job on such a vast screen, but he didn’t find any.
What’s new in the world of tech?
If you went back in time and told somebody you had a 116-inch TV, they would think you were delusional.
But that’s how technology is – things so fast that the impossible is made possible.
Bitcoin would have previously been unheard of, but now people are out there with fortunes in the millions thanks to it.
And let’s not forget the ever-evolving technology coming out of Apple, whether it’s the iPhone Air or the iOS 26.
