lux transparent edition a 10-year anniversary product from xiaomi that is only available in china and that they are not seeding to the media presumably because it's really stupid i mean who out there was thinking gee if only my tv was transparent so i could see all the things behind it instead of the content on the screen it's priced at a whopping 7 200 us dollars and i bought it so that i can share with you guys just how bad it is and this video is brought to you by ting ting is the mobile carrier that's customer focused and wants to help you save money by getting you to pay only for the mobile data you use i gotta say i'm really excited about this thing there was shockingly little information available about it online at least on english websites anyway so full disclosure here guys i don't even know what resolution it is seven thousand dollar 55 inch tv here folks uh hey matthias can i borrow you for a minute i gotta get the crate off this big waste of money hey andy you around andy you are my chinese translator help me please like always believe the good things were about to happen yeah i mean if i just if i knew someone just blew seven grand us on something this stupid i'd think they need a pep talk too i think i've identified a small problem andy which one is the phone yeah exactly uh is there io oh hey there you go thanks brandon i couldn't see that from here hi hello it's the world's most fun coveted barrier transparent tv please don't break oh this is a lot of pressure no i'm good i got this oh so much static ah it shocked me jerk oh should be careful with it sorry ow this thing is so trippy now this isn't even the first time i've seen a transparent OLED tv that was back in korea when i was allowed to travel still when i went to lg's headquarters and while i suspect that this is an lg panel because who the hell else is making transparent OLED displays if i recall correctly though it has been a while this seems quite a bit more clear i don't think this is the same generation of technology that that one was now on a normal OLED or a more traditional tv you would have like a reflective or opaque back layer that even if you popped the you know the back off of the chassis would not allow you to see through the pixels themselves but here every component of the pixel stack has been designed to be as see-through as possible so the only thing you can really see and you can see them if you get close is actually the the wiring like the connective wiring between the self-emissive organic leds i think that's about 10 pixels right there so that would make that about 100 i think it's 1080p because if that's about 100 there's no way that's 4 000. did i just spend 7 grand on a 1080p display we've got 120 hertz support and what's funny is in the press release they actually talk about the gaming experience on it like you would want to do that we've got a second with e-arc support e-arc means that it has at least some subset of the HDMI 2.1 specification supported third HDMI then we've got a couple of usb2 usb2 ports really optical avn so you i don't think it came with the adapter but you could put a composite or component or whatever that would be probably composite network and then an antenna port says 220 volt right there and their voltage is like 100 to 240. i don't tr well okay i'm trusting you but then why wouldn't they just put that on the product we're gonna do it you ready hey there it is that's definitely 1080p man check out these pixels look at the size of these pixels oh well i guess you can probably still see the size of the pixels they're like kind of huge they're huge pixels good thing we have andy okay so i pressed these buttons but what does it do yeah like just have the remote closer to this thing and hold those two buttons together and wait until you hear a bit hello it didn't beep lies is it normal when setting up a xiaomi product for me to install their app thing and for it to try and install three gigs worth of other random crap on my phone uh oh that's uh like third party app store i get it their app is on this app store so i had to get this app store first okay so why don't we try again okay so that's why it gave me a whole app store okay we're taking the tour yeah uh but the tour guide doesn't speak english so if you could uh uh uh settings configuration menu no this is actually mine uh just like my my HDMI input and stuff you know um tv recommendation or yeah um vip porn very important porn okay look at that streaming to you all the way from china just standing here i honestly kind of forgot it was a see-through tv and that's what i was supposed to be looking at in a darker scene i can see right through it but this and that's probably because we have those lights behind the tv yeah without that man that's kind of cool isn't it okay uh enough of exploring the ocean that's i'm too wet now too excited sir is there is there a language option language no yes yes confirm wait did it work yeah it says like some third-party app might not support english but other than that you have english here we english now boys yes they've got captive portal support that's cool i mean xiaomi does have tvs so it shouldn't be that surprising that they've like got a tv os that's reasonably fleshed out even if it's on a super weird tv today so this has an always-on display option with different styles what are these oh that's pretty cool so if the idea was to use it as an impressive art piece in your like you know fancy pants home where seven thousand dollars on an art is like whatevs no big deal i guess and you could do like this or whatever it just feels like i could catch the thing oh my god no way nice okay um memc would be motion compensation probably right i'm not sure this is english local contrast why would it have like a local dimming setting on an OLED okay you can do your own white balance tune your color pixel adjustment on cool okay let's plug something in that was so weird so last time it said active signal resolution 4k desktop resolution 1920x1080. what's weird though is it still kind of looks like crap also we got a dead pixel dang it right in the middle of my chrome icon you say you won't buy one that's it that's the deal breaker for you the one dead pixel not the seven thousand dollars see-through if i pay seven grand it looks like you were right andy i think only one of the input supports 120 hertz which is super weird in this day and age like 120 hertz 1080p it's like nothing anymore it's kind of tedious switching inputs like where's this the leg input switch button i guess the expectation is you're going to do most of your content consumption streaming like is that the norm input lag honestly feels better on this input as well already but i still don't see a 120 hertz option let's try uh let's try doing it as a custom resolution not just break it i've seen this place get pretty effed up for like days from doing this curiously it seems to be doing some kind of weird chroma sub sampling nonsense it doesn't look quite as sharp you can you got like kind of a green fringing on these Windows and stuff got another disappointing update for you brandon check this out you can configure the display mode and the game mode does in fact improve the input leg so that feels that feels pretty darn good unfortunately if i don't want warm colors it changes me to user mode and it's mushy input again why then making matters worse this is super annoying i have another dead pixel do you know how much each of these pixels costs if you spent seven grand on a stupid clear tv you'd want all the pixels to work too viewing angles are surprisingly decent it does turn a little bit bluey greeny once you get to kind of an extreme angle but as long as you're within reason i'd say it's pretty darn good let's play some video games shall we one benefit of the hockey puck approach is that the built-in speaker is actually not terrible for a tv they say they support dolby atomos yeah but i don't think this thing support HDR the animation at least they didn't mention on the spec sheet it's pretty rough for anyone who'd be stupid enough to buy it anyway i think we've got a few more stuck pixels up here oh those are sloppy it otherwise looks great we put a black surface behind it so just like some black kind of uh velvety cloth and like i can't even tell it's clear i mean it's not much of a feature when like the feature is that you can't see the feature but oh hi andy oh lara don't fall is she swimming going for a little front crawl here conceivably you could game on it i don't know that i would have it in my press release if i was xiaomi but there you go let's try something more cinematic even at 1080p at this size i wouldn't expect that much screen door effect but probably as part of trying to make the screen as transparent as possible they actually want the pixels to be smaller so you're going to get more of like a noticeable grid in between them yeah this is not a great experience which kind of raises the question what is the point of this who does buy something like this and the answer believe it or not is pretty straightforward commercial enterprises i mean imagine if lttstore.com had a display like that in the window wouldn't you want to buy it look at that water bottle you can see right through the marketing materials pretty cool right so bottom line even if it doesn't make any sense for consumers if i was a high-end hotel or banquet hall or law firm and i wanted something really eye-catching in my lobby to make potential customers think that i was pretty swanky something like this could potentially make sense even if it does come with a few bugs speaking of bugs our sponsor for this hey wait a minute uh who is that guy that's not supposed to happen um they stuck me in here i hold just give me a second i just hey shoot i hate this remote stuck in here ah that's not the real lightest did someone um hold on hold on no i got it there we go sorry about that ah just a weird thing bad firmware speaking of weird uh this video is brought to you by ting ting
