Samsung Neo QLED 8k screens to feature upgraded HDR handling
All Samsung Neo QLED screens use a Mini LED backlight source, for superior HDR handling and contrast, which this year will be enhanced with the addition of 14-bit HDR Mapping, said to add even more details to dark and bright scenes, and Quantum Matrix Technology with Shape Adaptive Light control; the latter allows the set’s processor to analyse the shape and surfaces of objects, and adjust backlit intensity for greater picture accuracy. Viewers should see less backlight blooming, the halo around bright objects on a dark background, as a result.
Also making its debut this year is a Real Depth Enhancer; this AI picture quality algorithm is powered by a 20-strong Neural network, and is able to separate an object from its background, to emphasise the sense of visual depth.
Of course, the screens aren’t just about advanced picture technology. The Neo QLED models will feature multi directional Object Tracking Sound (OTS) speakers with Dolby Atmos.
Other niceties include an upgraded Tizen smart TV interface, coupled with Samsung TV Plus, the brand’s own channel selection.
The screens also support High Frame Rate gaming, with refresh rates up to 4k@144Hz, using Motion Xcelerator technology to enhance motion clarity.
Samsung’s 2022 Neo QLED screens will be available for pre-order from March 16, and will be available from April 6.
