It boasts four times the resolution of 1080p, it's 3D capable, and it's gigantic.

Take a look at your TV. If you're not in your living room or you're at work, just imagine it. You've probably got a set somewhere between 40" and 60" right? Now imagine what an 84" set would look like in your room. If it was just the size alone, LG's creation would still be worth talking about.

There's more to it than that though. This monster TV is capable of Ultra Definition - a pixel count of 3840x2160. It's LED backlit and also packs 3D video improvement features like depth control, and 3D Sound Zooming for better 3D audio immersion.

If that's not enough, the set also has connected TV features and can use any of the apps on LG's Smart TV ecosystem.

There's no launch date or price yet, but we're betting it's going to cost a pretty penny.

You're gonna need a bigger living room.

Sometimes a piece of gear comes along that we can't help but drool over. The new Sharp LC-80LE632U is one of those. At 80 inches, it's an absolute monster, and the specs on it ain't too shabby either!

To start with, the Sharp LC-80LE632U offers full array LED backlighting, 120Hz Fine Motion Enhanced and a dynamic contrast ratio of 6,000,000:1. It's a smart TV so you can get your streaming fix if you've got the internet hooked up. Even cooler - the folks at Sharp can log into your TV to troubleshoot, set up and adjust the picture quality.

Next month, if you've got $5,499 and a big enough room to justify it, you'll be able to pick up Sharp's new 80 inch TV for yourself. If you don't have the room, start knocking down walls.
