[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] Samsung Electronics announced on the 26th that the domestic sales of the 2021 Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diode (QLED) TV, released on the 3rd of last month, have exceeded 10,000 units in about two months. This sales speed is more than twice as fast compared to the same period for last year's new QLED TV models.

The 'Neo QLED,' which features 'Quantum mini LED,' accounts for half of the QLED TV sales released this year. Additionally, about 75% (3 out of 4 units) of the new QLED TV sales in Korea are 75 inches or larger, leading the trend toward larger and more premium TVs in the domestic market.

Samsung Electronics evaluated, "This achievement is the result of quickly responding to the growing demand for premium TVs with large screens and various functions centered on Neo QLED, as the role of TVs at home has recently expanded."

Samsung Neo QLED is a product that delivers industry-leading picture quality with ▲'Quantum mini LED,' which is 1/40th the size of conventional LED elements and more precise ▲'Neo Quantum Matrix,' which controls brightness with 12-bit precision to adjust brightness in 4,096 steps ▲'Neo Quantum Processor,' which optimizes any input video quality to 8K and 4K respectively through deep learning-based control using 16 neural networks.

Also, the 'Moving Sound (OTS)' technology, which moves the sound along with the movement of objects in the video, provides immersive 3D audio as if watching a 4D movie. The slim 15mm-thick 'Infinity Design' without any protruding parts maximizes immersion during viewing. The top model, 'Neo QLED 8K,' applies an infinity screen with a black border and bezel thickness of only 2.3mm to help viewers focus on the video.

Samsung Neo QLED also features various gaming functions. Samsung Electronics explained that users can enjoy vivid images without worrying about burn-in even after long hours of gaming. This product received the 'Gaming TV Performance' certification from the German certification body 'VDE' last month, the first in the TV industry. Additionally, with Samsung Health's 'Smart Trainer' feature, users can check calorie consumption in real-time and perform customized workouts.

Hwang Tae-hwan, Executive Vice President of Samsung Electronics Korea, said, "The initial sales performance of QLED TVs is the result of leading market trends through differentiated technology and various functions reflecting consumers' lifestyles," adding, "We hope more consumers will experience a new daily life with Neo QLED, which integrates the best technologies in picture quality, sound, design, and content."
