About the Samsung OLED range
What sets Samsung’s latest OLED range apart? First, let’s take a look at what OLED TVs actually entail.
OLED stands for organic light-emitting diode. OLED screens omit the LED backlighting that characterizes just about every other TV on the market. Instead, each individual pixel of the screen emits its own light.
The benefits of this practice are immense and are the main reasons OLED screens are considered the best on the market. Most significantly, OLED screens can completely “shut off” pixels or groups of pixels to produce a true black color. Conversely, other types of screens have to shield the LED backlighting to attempt to produce a black and the results are generally far inferior.
But Samsung fans know that good enough is never good enough for the South Korean giant. It has continued to innovate by incorporating elements of its trademark QLED screens in its new OLED line. According to Samsung, the quantum dots that characterize QLED screens contribute brighter and more realistic colors to its new range of OLED screens.

Some other impressive features of the range include true RGB sub-pixels, HDR 10+ technology, a Tizen smart TV experience, Samsung object tracking sound and Q-Symphony with Dolby Atmos. All told, these TVs appear seriously impressive and well worth the price of admission.
