It was called the C SEED
N1, and now it's back with in a new Bugatti-inspired form.

The C SEED BUGATTI N1 takes styling cues from the rather beautiful Bugatti Tourbillon supercar , with a side profile mimicking the C-line design that makes Bugattis so visually distinctive. And as before it contains a self-folding 4K micro-LED TV in a choice of 110 inches or 137 inches. Made in Austria, the BUGATTI N1 features materials and finishes including carbon fiber and aluminum inspired by Bugattis Tourbillon hypercar as well as
taking on some of its shape. Latest Videos From Watch full video here:

Theres also a fully integrated Wisdom Audio sound system hidden inside the structure, with speakers that extend outwards when activated and disappear again once the Netflix doom scroll is over.

Pricing is very much in the "if you have to ask, you can't afford it"
bracket. But the 2024 N1 was expected to cost $283,000 / 285,000 (about AU$394,925), and reports have stated that a previous Porsche Design folding
TV cost around $400,000, so clearly you're looking at supercar money. You may like TCL's new micro-LED TV massively cuts the price of the 'OLED-killer'

The "sculptural sideboard" unfolds and rotates to become vertical, its five micro-LED panels becoming a single enormous 4K screen. There's an embedded video of it here .

The big challenge with foldable displays has traditionally been visible seams and panel inconsistencies, but C SEED says its patented Adaptive Gap Calibration system effectively eliminates the joins between the moving
panels. Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.

Refreshingly C SEED has published the specs of the system rather than opting for discretion. The contrast ratio is 30,000:1, peak brightness is 1,000
nits, and the sound system has a frequency range (including the subwoofer) of 60Hz to 20kHz.

Unfortunately if you're a gamer this might not be the TV for you: its three HDMI ports are HDMI 2.0, not 2.1. Seems a little cheap

Like most people I couldn't afford one of these TVs in a million years but I love the fact that it exists: like the weirdest luxury hi-fi speakers it's both spectacular and a bit silly at the same time.

But if you happen to have six figures to spare and your garage already contains a Bugatti Tourbillon, a folding television probably feels perfectly reasonable. The TV is being "presented to discerning customers" through CDEED's partner network worldwide, and you can see more of this very unusual TV on the C SEED website here. There's even a book you can download. Image 1 of 5 (Image credit: C Seed) (Image credit: C Seed) (Image credit: C Seed) (Image credit: C Seed) (Image credit: C Seed) Thinking of buying a new TV?
