Samsung's new MicroLED TVs cost up to $150K for a 114-inch
What are the three sizes available for Samsung's MicroLED TVs as mentioned in the news?
Samsung's MicroLED TVs are available in three sizes: 89 inches, 101 inches, and 114 inches4. These TVs are part of Samsung's luxury lineup, with prices ranging from $109,999 for the 89-inch model to $150,000 for the 114-inch model.
How do the MicroLED TVs differ from traditional OLED TVs in terms of technology and performance?
MicroLED TVs and OLED TVs both offer excellent display quality, but they differ in terms of technology and performance. Here's a comparison of the two:
-
Technology: MicroLED TVs use tiny LEDs as individual pixels, whereas OLED TVs use organic materials that emit light when an electric current is applied4. MicroLED TVs are self-emitting, with no backlight, so they work similarly to OLED but without the risk of burn-in.
-
Brightness: MicroLED TVs can get much brighter than OLED TVs. While OLED screens tend to sit at around 1,000 nits of peak brightness, Samsung claims that microLED will be able to boast 4,000 nits initially, and as much as 10,000 nits in the near future6.
-
Size: MicroLED TVs are currently only available in larger sizes (around 100 inches diagonally), while OLED TVs are widely available in sizes ranging from 42 to 97 inches.
-
Price: MicroLED TVs are currently very expensive, with Samsung's 89-inch model priced at $109,999.00. OLED TVs, on the other hand, are much more affordable, with LG's C3 series of OLED TVs starting at under $1,000.
-
Modular Possibilities: MicroLED TVs offer modular possibilities, meaning that customers could potentially start with one size of TV and add to it in the future6. This allows for much larger displays than OLED, as well as non-standard display shapes and sizes.
-
Burn-in: OLED TVs are susceptible to burn-in, while MicroLED TVs are not. Burn-in occurs when a static image is shown on the screen for long periods of time, resulting in a ghostly afterimage that can be seen even when the image changes.
In summary, MicroLED TVs offer some advantages over OLED TVs, such as higher brightness, larger sizes, and no risk of burn-in. However, they are currently much more expensive and only available in larger sizes. OLED TVs, on the other hand, are more affordable and widely available in a variety of sizes.
What is the price difference between the 101-inch and the 114-inch models of Samsung's MicroLED TVs?
The price difference between the 101-inch and the 114-inch models of Samsung's MicroLED TVs is $20,000. The 101-inch model is priced at $129,999.00, while the 114-inch model costs $149,999.00.
