Samsung's Curved 105-inch 4K+ Ultra HD TV is Available to Order Now for Just $119,999.99

For those in search of new bragging rights, Samsung Electronics has a bit of news that's certainly both eye-catching and drool-worthy. The company has just announced plans to start taking pre-orders for its 105-inch Curved UHD TV sometime this week.

To become the proud owner of this TV, you'll need to have $120K kicking around. (Technically, it's only $119,999.99.)

First announced back in January at CES, this set (which also goes by the model name UN105S9W) has an ultra-wide (21:9) curved screen that's designed to create a truly immersive viewing experience. Imagine feeling like you're wrapped in 105 inches of 4K goodness? Well this is actually beyond 4K resolution, thanks to the set's CinemaScope aspect ratio. The vertical resolution is the same as other Ultra HD TVs but the horizontal resolution is one third greater. This translates to a whopping 5120 x 2160 native resolution -- that's over 11 million pixels! Samsung's Auto Depth Enhancer and upconversion technology helps bring those crisply detailed images to life.  Our editor Chris Boylan was impressed enough to include it in his Best of CES 2014.

Other features include UHD Dimming and Precision Black for deeper blacks and whiter whites, the Quad Screen Multi-Link option to turn the one screen into four, and future-proofing via the Samsung UHD Evolution Kit. Of course, this model also has Samsung's Smart Hub platform, which includes smart TV apps such as Netflix, Vudu, YouTube and more, five panels of personalization on the home screen, and a quad-core processor for speedy access to a slew of web-based entertainment options.

"We continue to set the bar as the UHD market leader by delivering the best picture quality, design and most immersive viewing experiences in home entertainment," said Joe Stinziano, executive VP of Samsung Electronics America. "The introduction and availability of our new 105" Curved UHD TV represents our unremitting efforts to reshape TV, driven by consumers' passion for entertainment. Made for the premium entertainment lover, the 105" Curved UHD TV features the most advanced technology and design, a massive movie-theater style UHD screen and a curve that creates the ultimate cinematic experience."

Built to order, Samsung will start taking orders for the 105-inch Curved UHD TV this week.  You'll have to be patient as it takes about 4 months from order until you'll be able to take delivery. Besides the actual TV, the $119,999.99 MSRP also makes buyers privy to the "Samsung Elite Service," which includes an in-home visit from engineers who can calibrate the TV and explain how it works.
