There has been a lot of innovation in the field of LCD TV screens in terms of making them thinner and thinner. However, few companies have thought to tackle the other dimension (width.) Specifically, the width of the bezel (non-viewable “case” components surrounding the screen.) Samsung is taking the miniaturization fight to the bezel now and its new line of digital display screens are the current industry leader.
The new 55 inch screen (Digital Information Display—not a TV . . . yet) boasts full HD capabilities and a 3.8mm bezel on the top and left of the screen. That means when you slap two screens together, you get a total width of 110 inches with a minimal 7.6mm non-viewable line between the two. The bezels on the bottom and right are a little thicker at 5.7mm—a design concession to accommodate the other side.
