    LG is releasing a new 136-inch Micro LED TV that you’ll likely never be able to afford.

    LG’s massive Magnit Active Micro LED TV will hit the South Korean market on October 21st with the North American market following later.

    No pricing is listed, but considering a 118-inch model in 2023 was $237,000, we expect this new one to be as much as a small house.

    The Plus is a rugged and stylish summer companion with full sound, but it could use more robust connectivity for its price.
