I suction-mounted the wireless OLED TV to the wall. I will never be the same

As strange as it may seem, someone has made a TV that can be stuck to the wall using large suction cups. It’s powered by built-in batteries and designed to be taken anywhere. The most interesting thing, to me, is that you can buy one now.

Since then, the company has improved the design, added a smaller screen size, and added some artificial intelligence. the Remove the TV Pre-order starts today starting at $1,499, and will ship this spring.

Displace TV hands-on

The company revealed its TV lineup here at Consumer Electronics Show 2025and got the chance to watch TV in an exclusive demo session set up by Displace for CNET at an Airbnb outside the Strip in Vegas. I’ve been covering CES and TVs for more than two decades, and I’ve never experienced anything like this demo.

There was a 55-inch Displace TV Basic wireless TV by the pool, standing on little legs, running on battery power. I picked it up and moved it around using the built in handles, very easy. But the really impressive part came when I was able to use the Displace TV Pro and its suction cup system.

In the kitchen, my 27-inch Pro was stuck in the refrigerator. I pressed a small recessed button on the handle, and after an on-screen timer indicated it was ready — and warned me to keep going — I felt its weight and pulled it easily. To reconnect it, I lifted it and an indicator appeared to help me adjust the screen level. I pressed the recessed joystick and another screen appeared representing the two suction cups on the back, complete with timers and an indicator showing how to increase the suction in the cups until they turned green.

A message appeared telling me I could walk away, which I did with some trepidation. I was impressed to see the TV hanging there, defying gravity, working just like a regular TV, complete with apps and an on-screen menu.

The process was the same with the 55-inch model and was equally impressive, if a bit more difficult because the TV was heavier. But the combination of on-screen prompts and huge suction cups reassured me that the expensive TV would actually get stuck there. The TV also has Landing safety system. It was designed to protect the TV from hitting the ground if the panel succumbed to gravity (it wasn’t ready for the demo).

In its most elegant form, the TV is full screen, but it also has a bunch of pop-ups. The charging port pops out of the side, and you can leave it plugged in like a regular TV. On the other side, the pop-up USB-C port allows you to connect HDMI devices (using a USB to HDMI cable). Another small tray, only available in 55-inch sizes, pops out and allows you to attach a Roku Stick or other streaming device and hide it away inside. At the top there is a pop-up camera. At the bottom, a pair of legs appear, allowing the TV to stand upright. If you want to join multiple professionals, you can group them together in a Video Wall.

The Pro also comes with speakers and a speaker system, both of which are detachable via pop-up brackets. The Basic can support these speakers as well, but they are not included. Adding any of these speakers, which have their own built-in batteries, will increase your TV’s battery life.

Without any speakers connected, the Pro runs for about eight hours at maximum brightness. The Basic model has half the capacity of the built-in battery, so it lasts three to four hours. Attaching a full set of speakers increases battery life dramatically, up to 60 hours for the Pro.

The Displace TV remote is also unique. It felt like a phone in my hand, its surface dominated by a touchpad with scrolling areas that behaved smoothly and exactly as I expected, enabling me to move the cursor around the screen and scroll through menus. Along the top are six buttons, one of which is programmable (it has the CNET abbreviation for my demo).

The company is also building its own operating system called Displace OS. is used Amnesty International agent Make tasks easier — from streaming and productivity features (like sending emails) to ridesharing and food delivery — with voice commands. A wireless keyboard and mouse can also be connected to the TV to facilitate certain tasks.

I wasn’t able to test the proxies for my demo, but I appreciate that the TV essentially has a built-in web browser, allowing for easy access not only to streaming services but also to websites like CNET.

Here I state the obvious: this is a relatively expensive and specialized product. If you want a battery-powered TV, it’s easy to plug a regular TV into an electrical socket Portable power station Saving hundreds or even thousands of dollars. If you want an external, battery-powered monitor Portable projector Much cheaper with a larger image.

The 55-inch Displace TV Pro will ship starting March 28, while the smaller Pro and two Basic sizes will ship shortly after, according to Displace TV. Look for the full review from CNET at the time.
