Recently, BMW unveiled a new suspension theater-type giant screen at cess international consumer electronics show 2022, setting a new standard for backseat entertainment configuration.
At its core is a 31-inch retractable display with resolutions up to 8K that extends from the ceiling at the push of a button. It's not just a widescreen that's exciting, though, as this smart display is equipped with Amazon Fire TV in overseas markets and will also benefit from 5G connectivity, so it can stream all the movies, TV shows, music, and podcasts currently on Amazon Fire TV.
Entertainment content on the giant screen, users can choose 16:9 or 32:9 format, through the infotainment system control menu or integrated in the back door handle hand touch control panel. The audio system is equipped with the Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System, featuring unique features including diamond dome tweeters to provide a multi-faceted sound experience.
This is very much in line with BMW's theme at CES this time, which is to evoke people's emotions through technology. They also released new themed modes, including soothing mode, joyful mode, digital art mode and cinema mode, to create immersive experiences for users.
It is reported that BMW did not directly say which mass production car will first use the "suspension theater giant screen", but we expect it to be installed on BMW's new high-end models.
