Aside from the bendable 85-inch 4K Ultra HD TV, Samsung also unveiled a gigantic 105-inch curved UHD TV at CES this week. It would seem the devices aren’t just concepts. Engadget confirmed that the TV sets will be up for sale in the second half of 2014. There is no information about the pricing yet but we are willing to bet it will cost an arm and a leg and then some. Better start saving up.

Samsung doesn’t just want to sell you curved TVs (although they already have a few of those), they want to give you the power to bend your TV at your will. Well, you will need the remote control and the new concept from the Korean tech giant. CNet reports you just need to press a button on the concept TVs accompanying remote and a servomechanism on the back of the screen bends the TV to a curve or flattens it out like the current crop of HDTVs.

The demo unit of this concept was an 85-inch LED LCD with 4K. Samsung has managed to make a bendable screen without OLED. We are excited for the possibilities of this new idea and what it entails for the future of television viewing.
