Samsung Electronics Begins Pre-Orders for QD-OLED TVs in the US
The release date in Korea is undecided
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] Samsung Electronics is starting pre-orders for its first Quantum Dot Organic Light Emitting Diode (QD-OLED) TV in the United States. The domestic release date has not yet been announced.
On the 18th, Samsung Electronics announced through its U.S. newsroom that it will begin pre-orders for the 2022 Neo QLED 8K series, which has also started pre-sales in Korea, along with the lifestyle TV 'The Frame' and the QD-OLED TV.
Samsung's QD-OLED TV has not yet been announced for release in Korea, but customers who pre-order in the U.S. are expected to receive the product as early as next month. The Samsung QD-OLED TV is branded as 'Samsung OLED.'
Samsung OLED features the Neural Quantum Processor 4K chipset to deliver optimized 4K images. It enhances picture quality and sound by strengthening the intelligent experience of its proprietary TV operating system (OS), the Tizen platform. The design is inspired by laser beams, featuring an ultra-thin thickness and a laser slim bezel design.
