Default Samsung teases 'unprecedented new TV shape'
Samsung teases 'unprecedented new TV shape' set to be revealed next week (and it could be transparent as well)
New TV could also be transparent, allowing any window to become a TV at the switch of a button
Announcement set to be made next week at the annual CES show in Las Vegas

Hologram would be Cool
Few years to come , I guess.

which shows a transparent, portrait shaped design.
The firm is believed to be unveiling the new

A decade ago, people would have been amazed, but it's not really that impressive now, lol.

Oh gawd. I hope they stick to 16:9. The naughties for me was the awkward transition from 4:3 to 16:9.

I don't understand the need for a transparent screen? Like why would you want a big empty transparent rectangle when it's turned off? What's the advantage? Too see all the wires behind it? Just seems like a load of pointless hassle to me.

And portrait?! Why!? What possible advantage could portrait filmed content give I just what this doesn't make a lick of sense.

I suppose the idea is that when it is switched off it will look like it almost is not there.
