If you’ve ever looked at 100-inch TVs and immediately closed the tab because the price got silly, this one’s different. The Hisense 100-inch QD7 Series Mini-LED is listed at $1,397.96, and that’s the rare moment where a truly huge screen stops being a fantasy purchase and starts looking like a realistic living-room upgrade.
This isn’t a projector compromise either. You’re getting a big, bright TV you can use any time of day, with modern gaming-friendly specs and the major HDR formats people actually care about.
This is a 100-inch 4K Mini-LED QLED smart TV running Fire TV, with a 144Hz panel and support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+. Audio format support includes Dolby Atmos, and it has gamer-focused features like Game Mode Pro and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode).
It also has Alexa built in and includes a voice remote, which is either a nice convenience or something you’ll ignore completely. Either way, it’s there.
The headline here is the mix: huge screen, Mini-LED backlighting, and a refresh rate that isn’t stuck in “basic TV” territory.
A 100-inch TV changes how you use your space. Movies feel like events, sports are more immersive (you can actually see the play develop), and gaming gets that “I’m in it” vibe without you sitting three feet from a monitor.
Mini-LED is what makes a screen this big more practical. You get the brightness needed for real living rooms (not just dark theater caves), and QLED color helps keep the picture looking punchy instead of washed out. It’s not OLED-level black performance, but at 100 inches, you’re usually prioritizing size and brightness anyway, and Mini-LED is one of the best ways to do that.
The 144Hz refresh rate is especially practical if you plan on doing some sort of gaming. Even if you’re not chasing competitive frame rates, smoother motion is noticeable in fast sports, racing games, and shooters. ALLM is also one of those small features that makes daily use nicer because you’re not digging through menus every time you switch from streaming to gaming.
At $1,397.96, this Hisense 100-inch QD7 Mini-LED is a surprisingly rational way to go truly big without jumping into ultra-premium pricing. If you’ve got the wall space and you want a TV that feels like a centerpiece, this is one of those deals that’s hard to replicate with anything else in the same price range.
Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.
The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.
