TL;DR

Linus unboxes and tests the Hisense 116UX 4K RGB-MiniLED TV—the current “world’s biggest” screen at 116 inches. While its massive size and vibrant picture are undeniably impressive, dropping from ~20,000 full-array local dimming zones down to ~10,000 (or even ~3,600 in certain modes) really hurts contrast and uniformity when you stretch it this big.

After running through a series of brightness, color and black-level tests (and even floating the idea of using it as a projector), he ultimately decides that the dimming trade-offs at this scale just aren’t worth the novelty—and he’s sending it back.
