new QD-OLED technology on the network, on the basis of which TVs with diagonals of 140 cm and 165 cm will be released next year, according\u00a0to\u00a0some sources close to the manufacturer.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c58214dce2.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The new screen is based on a QD or Quantum Dots layer, that is, quantum dots.\u00a0It consists of tiny semiconductor crystals that emit their own light in various colors at a wide viewing angle.\u00a0Structurally, they are simpler and more efficient than liquid crystals, providing an impressive lightness and thinness of the screen.<\/p>\n<p>Behind the QD is a high-energy blue luminescent layer or OLED, which gives the screen rich colors.\u00a0Each pixel in it can be disabled individually, creating a perfect black point in its place.<\/p>\n<p>In traditional backlit LCD screens, an image is formed by adjusting the amount of light transmitted through liquid crystals.\u00a0This is a rather lengthy process, as the electrical signal takes time to do this physical work.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c5821788fc.\" alt=\"\" \/>Meanwhile, in QD screens, the electrical signal produces the desired light directly in the QD layer, instantly creating a clear image without liquid crystal artifacts.\u00a0This fast response ensures that even highly dynamic programs such as auto races or other sporting events can be viewed in high quality.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c5821a15a8.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The new screens also reduce eye-hazardous and sleep-disturbing blue light by 40% -50% compared to LCD counterparts.\u00a0Moreover, in this indicator, QD surpasses all displays on the market.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c5821cd0e8.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Further, QD screens provide a very high degree of color purity and a wide range of colors.\u00a0Moreover, each shade has a wide range from dazzling bright to deep dark.\u00a0While conventional screens cover less than 60% of the high BT.2020 standard, then QD screens cover more than 80%.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c582200cbb.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another feature of quantum dots is that they emit light evenly in all directions, providing a wide viewing angle.\u00a0For example, 60 degrees off center in front of an LCD screen reduces perceived brightness by more than 45%.\u00a0The same figure for the QD screen is only 25%.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c58222e56d.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The glass covering of TV screens performs a protective function and also perfectly transmits outgoing light.\u00a0But this solution also has a drawback, since the glass perfectly reflects light from windows and from lighting fixtures, which creates interference.\u00a0Samsung engineers did not bypass this issue, having developed a special anti-reflective coating that has no analogues for comfortable viewing of the QD screen in any conditions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c582257b83.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Contrast is the most important characteristic of a TV.\u00a0Traditional screens use backlighting, which can be difficult to accurately control.\u00a0As a result, the inability to display deep blacks is a known disadvantage of such TVs.\u00a0In QD 4K screens, each of the 8.3 million pixels is a separate light source with individual control.\u00a0This achieves an astonishing 1,000,000: 1 contrast ratio with perfect blacks and high image clarity.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c582284681.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Due to the impossibility of precise control of the backlight, as discussed above, LCD TVs often leak light from bright areas to neighboring dark areas.\u00a0This phenomenon is also known as the halo effect, which is especially noticeable around bright objects against a black background.\u00a0However, QD screens do not have this disadvantage.\u00a0Controlling the operation of each pixel allows for correct reproduction of light and dark areas.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_611c5822b1023.\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Finally, we move on to brightness.\u00a0Interestingly, its perception depends not so much on its physical size as on the depth of black and saturation of other background colors.\u00a0For example, two images of the same brightness look different depending on the contrast.\u00a0It turns out that the better the screen reproduces black, the brighter the picture is perceived, which is clearly demonstrated by the QD TV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QD-OLED TVs deliver a wide and rich gamut of colors, reproduce deep blacks, have instant response and a wide viewing angle.\u00a0In addition,
