Is that weight correct? Seems low for a 58” tv.

Tv’s are crazy light nowadays. Remembering the weight of the old CRT tv’s makes it really astonishing just how light they are.

I got a tv to replace one that was half the size, and it’s like a quarter of the weight of the old one. Both flat screens, but the old one is like 10 years old so. They build them out of feathers now.

I lifted my new 85" handed while balancing it with the other. New TV's are crazy light. Biggest challenge was finding somewhere to grip it since it has like millimetre thick bezels.

I took down 65" touch screens at my school when we got them all replaced and could barely lift them and after 30 I thought my arms would fall off. But at least they had huge thick plastic bezels.
