The largest television on display this year at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is the Vizio 4K TV.
Measuring an incredible 120-inches, the Vizio 4K TV not only boasts an incredible size but is also "smallest price for a set from a major manufacturer" at $999.99, though that is only for the smaller 50-inch version. The Vizio 4K television continues the theme of high-end Ultra HD TVs being a major push from television manufacturers this year at CES. While last years theme of 3D televisions failed to catch on with consumers, manufacturers are hoping that Ultra HD TVs will become a hot ticket item in stores.
At 120-inches the Vizio 4K TV is surprisingly only 10-inches larger than its competitor, the 110-inch Samsung 4K Television.
