Samsung is promising a revolution in picture quality for its new flagship QLED screens which use Mini LED technology for the first time, rather than a conventional LED LCD backlight.
These new Neo QLED TVs will be available in 4k (QN90A) and 8k (QN900A) configurations.
Broadcasting as part of the virtual CES 2021 expo, Samsung says the Mini LEDs deliver dramatic improvements in contrast and black levels, while established Quantum Dot technology provides wide, vibrant colour.
Obviously, we haven’t had a chance to see these screens in action yet, but we have high hopes. Rival LG has also announced Mini LED TVs.
The new screens come with Quantum Matrix technology and a Neo Quantum processor to support the new display hardware.
The sets will sport enhanced upscaling capabilities to make the most of available content, be it HD, 4k or 8k. The new Neo QLED 8K also boasts a new Infinity One Design, a nearly bezel-less screen for a window-like viewing experience.
The 2021 Neo QLED 8k screen also has Object Tracking Sound (OTS) Pro sound, which corresponds to the movement of objects on screen and SpaceFit Sound calibration, which tunes the screen to your room.
