Samsung Electronics Co. will round up TV makers preferring quantum dot technology for their display and spearhead the front in the battle over next-generation TV leadership against organic light-emitting diode (OLED) TV manufacturers.
“The quantum dot-based light emitting diode (QLED) TV that we will unveil at CES 2017 next month features the best possible picture quality,” said an official from Samsung Electronics on Sunday. “We expect more electronics makers would manufacture quantum dot TVs after the trade show and we will share our technology and know-how with them,” he added.
OLED TV makers led by its Korean rival LG Electronics Inc. point to main downsides of quantum dot TVs - limited contrast ratio and poor off-angle viewing. Samsung Electronics, however, said it completely combated them in the new product it will showcase at CES 2017. The company expects the future TV market would be divided into quantum-dot TVs and others.
OLED TV makers including LG Electronics, Panasonic, Phillips and Germany’s Grundig and Loewe plan to lead the future high-definition TV market by making display thinner and strengthening OLED TVs’ advantages of excellent contrast and color. Japan-based electronics giant Sony is also expected to release its own OLED TV next year.
