In this case, the definition of portable has been stretched slightly. The iConic 100 LED screen has more in common with a billboard than a television, with a surface area of 100m. The screen is actually high-def and can play back 720p video.
From there, the numbers get even bigger. The display is 12.8 meters long and 7.2 meters tall. Thats a 578-inch screen, if my math is correct, and the TV takes a half hour to set up once it has arrived. And how, you are no doubt asking, could this be called portable? Thats the trick. The Iconic comes on wheels. Giant, flatbed trailer wheels which hook up to a truck, making it technically portable, despite weighing 33,000Kg. It even comes with a generator so you dont have to find a socket to plug it in.
So, is this the worlds largest portable TV? Actually, no. Theres no built-in tuner, so really its just a big ol screen.
