A PORTABLE Samsung telly that you shuffle around the house is now up for sale in the UK.
The bizarre Samsung Movingstyle is a moveable television that you’re meant to roll around – or even carry like a suitcase.
Samsung unveiled the gadget just a few months ago, but it’s now finally available for pre-order.
It features a 27-inch Quad-HD touchscreen with a handle on top for easy carrying.
And it has a soft-wheeled floor stand that allows you to move it from room to room with ease.
You can also detach the TV from the main stand, and then set it up on a table using a built-in kickstand.
There’s also a built-in battery so you don’t need to have it constantly plugged in.
“The Movingstyle gives users the freedom to take their entertainment, play or work anywhere in their home,” Samsung said.
The tech giant continued: “The Movingstyle lets you cut the cord on how you watch, work and engage.
“You can use it just like a tablet, with an integrated kickstand to rest on surfaces.

“Or, leave it on the rollable floor stand with hidden wheels and move it throughout your home.”
You can switch the TV from landscape to portrait mode, which means it can be used for viewing vertical content as well as regular content.
And it also has a 120Hz refresh rate, which means it can update the image shown on screen 120 times every second.
That’s great if you’re watching high-frame-rate sports content or playing video games.
The TV also comes with Samsung Gaming Hub built in, which Samsung says means there’s “no need for a console either”.
“With users able to seamlessly connect wireless controllers and access the latest games from streaming services such as Xbox,” Samsung noted.
The TV supports Dolby Atmos audio, as well as a sweet of bonus features like Object Tracking Sound Lite, Q-Symphony, Adaptive Sound Pro, and Active Voice Amplifier Pro.
And it’s all powered by Samsung’s Tizen OS software, which supports a wide range of popular apps. That includes Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube.
It also comes with Samsung TV Plus built in, which gets you free access to a vast library of TV shows, movies, and free channels.
Samsung also says that when the TV is off, you can still view a daily Now Brief that packs in several widgets.
That includes Weather, Music, Memos – and can be viewed with a hands-free “wake up” voice activation.
On top of that, there’s a Sketch Now whiteboard app that lets you – and anyone who lives with you, or is visiting – draw on the TV using the touchscreen.
There are two catches that might put you off though.
The first is that you’ll have to pay a whopping £1,199 for the TV.
It’s certainly a high price for a display of this size – but it does have the advantage of being able to go in basically every room in your home.
The other downside is that it only has a three-hour battery life.
So that limits the screen’s portability, and means you’ll need to stay plugged in if you want to watch an entire Lord of the Rings movie.
The TV is available to pre-order exclusively at John Lewis, and will be on sale at Samsung from December.
