QDots back in favor at Sony.
Looks like Sony is giving QDots another try with their new line of TV's.
"Sony has ingeniously bypassed the troubles with edge-lit HDR through their unique use of quantum dot technology. Where brands like Samsung have often used a ‘film’ of quantum dots over the LED base, like in their SUHD range, especially the JS8500, Sony has placed quantum dots in glass tubes alongside the LEDs in the X930D, which results in the edge-mounted diodes shining directly through them, actually improving luminescence and making the LEDs more efficient, particularly with the display of red and green colors.
Concern that the edge-mounted LEDs could be a problem when viewed from an angle turns out to be unnecessary; and only viewing at extreme angles affected the color levels. That being said, Sony’s X930D 55 and 65 inch models have pulled off the same feat that Samsung’s new 2016 SUHD TVs succeeded at. Namely their capacity for delivering 1100 or more nits of peak brightness for what is currently top-shelf HDR quality while merely being edge-lit televisions. In basic terms, this means that Sony, like Samsung has developed some truly, stunningly bright LED technology for its 2016 models and this flagship series as well. The effect is notable in the peak brightness this TV offers and in the rich deep quality of its black levels, both working to produce some superb contrast."
