Samsung TV will pass directly into the OLED into QLED

Samsung Electronics is planning a long-term roadmap for the next generation of television, according to South Korean media reports, Samsung will skip OLED TV, directly into the QLED. Samsung is currently the main product of quantum dot TV, its strategy is to continue to develop quantum dot TV, while preparing for the commercial use of QLED technology. OLED has some defects, such as life, aging, manufacturing costs are high, so Samsung decided to skip OLED.

Samsung Electronics and industry sources said 22, Samsung VD (video display) business department is to adjust the next generation of television roadmap, the next month will be finalized, and then Samsung will share the road map in the interior.

From the beginning of 2006, Samsung TV sales of television has been ranked first in the world. So far, Samsung has been leading the market through LED, 3D, smart, quantum dot concept tv. This year, Samsung has not shown any concept TV, it continues to follow the same as last year, SUHD tv. LG electronics is the world's second largest TV maker, it is promoting the development of OLED TV, the industry wants to know how Samsung Electronics response.

Last year, Samsung Group Samsung Electronics VD business department conducted a management assessment, the business has been the focus of the QLED, they hope that QLED can help the company to maintain the lead in the next generation TV market. Samsung's strategy is focused on: VD business in the quantum dot TV will skip OLED TV, directly into the QLED tv. Many years ago, Samsung in the internal development of OLED TV and evaluation. Finally, Samsung believes that some problems are difficult to solve, such as life, aging and other problems caused by organic materials. In fact, the high cost of OLED units is the main weakness.

"Although we have been developing OLED technology to keep an eye on the technology, there are still many problems with the use of technology in large products, such as longevity and high production costs. "A senior executive said," Samsung's VD business unit is developing a roadmap for the next generation of television. The executive also added that after the quantum dot TV, Samsung decided to go directly to the QLED TV, because technology is developing rapidly.

QLED uses 2 to 10 nm quantum dots, and the same as OLED, it does not need backlight components can be their own light. The thickness of the quantum dots is only one percent of the hair, different sizes and different colors. Because of the use of inorganic materials, the durability of QLED is better than OLED, OLED is the use of organic materials. QLED lower cost, clarity and better light stability. In addition, due to the QLED single pixel color performance is better, in the implementation of HDR (high dynamic range) technology has the advantage, the current HDR has become the focus of competition in the quality of television.

The next 2 to 3 years, Samsung will still focus on SUHD TV, which uses a quantum dot display, but also will continue to improve the level of QLED technology, so that it meets the commercial requirements. According to estimates, the new QLED TV will be launched in 2019.
