Samsung should market this as the Classical TV, the target market being those who want to watch TV while reclining at their Roman-style banquets. 
An optional extra would be a fiddle.

Quote: Samsung says the TV comes with NFC pairing and a "simple mirroring function" to get your smartphone videos on the TV. Like Samsung's other TVs, this has an ambient mode that can display images, photos, clocks, and more when not in use.
First thought - back in the good old days, the thing you most wanted was a bigger monitor. Then the phones brought you to a new world of squinting or partial screen views (as if scrolling wasn't bad enough). So this is designed to be a 43" phone face (?) !
Second thought - well, their $2000 phone's a bust - so maybe they can use their new-found customer confidence to sell you a $16000 version of a cell-phone.
So - I just can't wait until the foldable version of this comes out!

LG scooped them with a TV that rolls up the reverse of a projector screen. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Hmmm - haven't seen that.
But here is my vision . . . think Origami . . . it folds up into a decorative centerpiece when not in use, or even fits in one's (large) pocket.

I'll wait for the motorized version - I'm not getting off the couch to rotate the TV AGAIN.
That is, assuming it's IoT so I can rotate it while I'm driving home in my Samsung Self Crashing Driving Hover Car.

I remember my brothers first Apple computer he used to graphics and page-design for pre-print... It had a vertical monitor to get close to the page as much as possible...

The concept would be no less moronic at $0.16

I have a 24" 1080p Samsung monitor I run in portrait mode. It was a built-in feature. I paid under $300 for it, back when that was still considered a great price for a 24" monitor.
I have a 4K, 40" LG TV I could place on its side if I wanted to. Windows will let you rotate any monitor that's hooked up to it. It's already a solved problem (assuming that was a problem someone wanted to solve)

Man - is that post KSS?
I mean, it's messed up enough having a large inflatable lady 'over for the night', but even Griff (probably) doesn't want an 8-foot inflatable spider.
Right ?

Arachnid my brains for an answer. Don't know - maybe if I lied and put a lot of spin on it?
