Samsung unveiled its 2022 lineup of TVs – primarily focused on 8K Neo QLEDs – last week in a presentation streamed via YouTube. The Korean company’s focus remains on placing the TV at the center of the home and daily life of its customers, using the slogan ‘Screens everywhere, screens for everyone’. The aim is “to provide unparalleled personalization and connectivity, ensuring there is a screen suitable for every occasion and lifestyle,” according to the corporation.
The Neo QLEDs 8K processor has been updated, giving even more image quality capability, enhancing contrasts, for example. “The processor, combined with the powerful Quantum Mini LEDs, creates precise and controlled lighting – a feature we call Shape Adaptive Light Control. For example, the full moon will glow against the dark night sky,” explains Samsung.
The TVs’ audio has also been improved, notably the introduction of wireless Dolby Atmos on the 4K and 8K Neo QLED TVs. According to Samsung, “The Artificial Intelligence of the Quantum 8K Neural Processor (the new processor) analyzes what’s on screen in real time so the Adaptive Sound feature can track and move between speakers to accurately match onscreen motion.”
The company also presented news such as a new SmartHub – the TV options interface – with special attention to games and even an NFT Platform. With it, Ambient mode “will offer consumers a complete NFT platform to explore and display NFT digital art on the Neo QLED and QLED 2022, a new way to collect and present artwork.”
Finally, the environmental issue – which has been strengthened by the company – also featured new features. The famous – and coveted – SolarCell remote has become 88% more efficient and can now be charged via 2.4 GHz radio frequency harvesting – drawing power from the spare charge emitted by Wi-Fi routers, for example. In addition, the packages will come with 90% less ink and no staples, for easy recycling. Recycling is also in the resin used in some Samsung products. In high-resolution displays, the resin comes from recycled ocean plastic.
