What is PQI on TV

What is PGI on TV.Many users find it difficult to choose a specific TV model. This is not surprising, since currently there is a wide variety of different variations of TV receivers, which differ from each other not only in price, but also in quality. Today, when store shelves are filled with various TV models, there is a need for a uniform gradation of image quality. For this purpose, different companies create a variety of ratings. For example, Samsung introduced a special PQI parameter for different models of TV receivers.

What is PQI on TV

For TVs, the most important parameter is the image. In order to compare different TV models, the user needs to understand many subtleties. For example, how screen size differs from its resolution or how to compare contrast levels. To make it more convenient for the user to navigate the variety of models, Samsung has introduced a convenient gradation of image quality on its TV models. This parameter is called PQI.

The PGI index shows the level of image quality.

REFERENCE! This index serves not only as a gradation of image quality, but also divides models into price segments. The maximum value of this rating is 2700, while the minimum is 100.

It should be clarified that TV devices with the PQI 100 parameter are not always outsiders in image quality, since even the minimum parameter provides a decent image on the TV screen. Of course, a TV with an index of around 100 will be inferior to a device whose rating exceeds 2000, but this device has a right to exist as a budget TV.

Criteria influencing the PQI index

This rating is based on several criteria, but the main ones that form the nominal value are resolution and color. Each of them should be considered.

Resolution shows what picture quality the TV supports. From simple HD to the cutting-edge 8k technology that has recently appeared on the market.

The color parameter is responsible for the quality of the color gamut on the device display. Typically, Samsung TVs are divided into two color transmission technologies: Purcolor and Quantom Dot. These parameters are taken into account when compiling the rating.

The PQI index allows the user to select the device with the highest quality image. The higher a device is in this rating, the better its basic parameters, such as:

  1. Brightness contrast. This parameter is responsible for the saturation of colors, as well as the clarity of lines. Contrast is also important for displaying black. Often, some technologies cannot correctly display black on a device's display. However, with modern models this problem is a thing of the past.
  2. Movement. This characteristic is responsible for the number of frames per second. The frame rate is an important parameter for comfortable viewing of movies and TV shows.A high level of this characteristic is especially necessary when watching sports programs.
  3. Noise reduction. There may be some noise during image transmission. This is due to signal conversion, which inevitably affects the picture quality. Modern technologies make it possible to reduce this problem to a minimum.

Thus, any user will be able to choose the most suitable TV model from Samsung without going into detailed study of the functioning of these devices.

ATTENTION! It is difficult for the naked eye to distinguish models that are in neighboring places in the ranking. For example, models with PQI 2000 and with PQI 2100 will be identical for the average person. At the same time, if these two parameters are 100 and 2100, respectively, the difference between the image quality on these two devices will be extremely significant.

That is why the user can determine in advance the quality of the image on the TV screen without turning it on. You just need to open the technical documentation or enter this model into the search. And the displayed PQI index will show how high-quality the image is transmitted by this TV receiver.
