“The latest QLED TVs were designed with the consumer in mind and focus on addressing the three most important things consumers consider when purchasing a new TV – Picture Quality, Design and Smart Connectivity. New Zealand consumers have an ever-growing range of 4K and HDR content available to them, which demands the very best in display technology. We believe our QLED technology offers bright and clear pictures, without colour distortion, for the best possible home entertainment experience in any lighting conditions,” said Jens Anders, Sales Director for Samsung New Zealand’s Consumer Electronics Division.
The newly-announced QLED TV takes quantum dot technology to the next level with advancements in light efficiency and a wider colour spectrum. With new metal quantum dots, the QLED TV addresses all the major aspects of picture quality, including viewing angle, color volume, brightness and bold contrast. The QLED TV can express accurate color and achieves a 100 percent colour volume – the highest on the market today, earning accreditation by Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (Association of German Electro Technicians), one of Europe’s largest technical-scientific associations.
In addition, the QLED TV’s rich, deep black levels and bold contrast provide a consistent viewing experience regardless of a room’s lighting. The QLED TV’s advanced HDR 1500 functionality allows users to see every hidden detail as it was meant to be seen, with no loss or distortion of colour.
