A company in the United Kingdom has received an influx of cash in its patent infringement lawsuit against Samsung, which was initially filed in February of this year. Nanoco, the company behind the lawsuit and which develops and manufactures cadmium-free quantum dot technology, is essentially taking aim at Samsung's line of QLED televisions. Nanoco and Samsung have a bit of history together. According to a statement made by Nanoco chairman Christopher Richards earlier this year, the British firm "worked collaboratively with Samsung" to develop "enhanced quantum dots." "We were therefore naturally disappointed when Samsung ended the collaboration and launched its QD-based televisions without entering...

Back at CES 2020 in Las Vegas, which seems like eons ago given the year that we've had, Samsung announced an extremely cool line of curved monitors aimed at gamers. With stylish good looks and stacked specs, both the Odyssey G9 and Odyssey G7 garnered a lot of favorable attention. Today, Samsung has announced that the smaller Odyssey G7 gaming monitors are finally shipping globally. While not as extreme as the Odyssey G9, the Odyssey G7 is impressive in its own right, and available in two screen sizes: 27 inches and 32 inches (compared to 49 inches for the G9). Samsung is billing the Odyssey G7 as the first gaming monitor with a 1000R curvature, and it backs that up with a sufficiently...

Samsung is no stranger to 8K televisions, as it already has a number of such products in its portfolio even though 8K content is virtually non-existent at this point. With that being said, 8K will be the next visual fidelity/performance benchmark for televisions in the coming years, and Samsung is already iterating with a new family. According to the German publication 4KFilme, it claims to have obtained some official images of a new Samsung TV that could be called the Q900T. As you can see from the images, the device has extremely narrow bezels, which will definitely make it look good on just about any wall that you choose to mount it. We really can't make out the bezels...

After plenty of teasing and specs leaks, the OnePlus TV has finally been revealed for all to see. OnePlus is looking to shakeup the TV market in much the same way that it did with smartphones by delivering hardware that is big on features, while not draining your wallet (at least compared to the competition). The first entry in the family measures 55-inches across, and it uses a QLED panel as we previously reported. It features a near bezel-free design that looks good to our eyes. In a shift from more traditional televisions in this space, the OnePlus TV takes a different approach with respect to its speaker arrangement. Instead of having fixed speakers, the OnePlus TV features...

We're beginning to learn a bit more about the OnePlus TV, which is set to go up against likes of Samsung and Sony in the marketplace, albeit hopefully at lower prices. A OnePlus exec has now confirmed specs for at least one model in the new smart TV product family. According to the tweet from Akis Evangelidis, there will be a 55-inch model with QLED technology (it is not known is QLED tech will proliferate throughout the entire lineup). QLED has been championed by Samsung in its high-end television, and TCL has recently jumped onboard with its 8-Series Roku TVs. You can read more about QLED in our in-depth article right here. Although the 55-inch model has now been confirmed...

TCL has just revealed its 2019 lineup of 4K Roku TVs, and as usual, the company is bringing a wealth of features at price points that undercut its rivals. The new big screen televisions include the all-new 8-Series along with updates to the exiting 5-Series and 6-Series lineups. Both the 6-Series and 8-Series models are adopting Quantum Dot (QLED) color technology that has long been championed by Samsung. TCL is promising 100 percent color representation in the DCI-P3 color space and that its new TVs will deliver more saturated colors across the board. The QLEDs are used in conjunction with high performance mini-LEDs which helps to boost contrast performance, delivering inky blacks in darkened...

Big screen 4K TVs are a dime a dozen these days. In fact, just this morning we brought you news of a hot deal over at Best Buy that will get you a Sharp 55-inch 4K HDR Roku TV for just $299.99. However, Samsung is looking to stand out from the crowd a bit with its latest creation, which it calls “The Sero”. The Sero features Samsung’s quantum-dot (QLED) display technology, which is pretty commonplace on the company’s high-end televisions, but it’s eye-catching feature is that the display panel actually rotates. In its standard position, the 43-inch display (assumedly 4K UHD) sits horizontally like any other modern television. However, the display can...

Earlier this week, Samsung announced their new 2019 lineup of 4K and 8K televisions using a display technology they call QLED. The term QLED looks suspiciously like OLED, but do the two technologies actually have much in common? After fielding a few questions about this on our website and social media, we want to clear up any confusion between them and expound on what to expect in terms of picture quality from each. We will start at the beginning with a basic LED LCD display. Virtually everyone has encountered one of these displays at some point in their life as they make up the majority of the market. These use a white LED backlight to shine through tiny red, green, and blue filters to create...

You've gotta pay to play, and that is readily apparent with Samsung's top shelf 85-inch QLED 8K TV. Samsung announced the Q900R Series last month, and it is available in 65-, 75-, 82-, and 85-inch sizes. Today, pricing has been released for the largest model, and it comes in at a staggering $15,000. One of the headlining features of the Q900R Series is support for the 8K resolution, although such content will be incredibly hard to find. It's highly likely that we won't see 8K content arrive for mainstream markets for many years to come, but Samsung obviously feels that it's worth getting the hardware out there now for early adopters. The Q900R Series can display content in native 8K resolutions,...

The new QLED sets represent the very best that Samsung has to offer, with price tags to boot—cost of entry into QLED territory is $2,800.
