What are QLED TVs?

OLED is a new stage in technology development that allows for high-quality picture quality. TVs with this technology provide minimal response time, as well as rich color reproduction and low power consumption. This makes them the favorites in the market of TV devices and monitors, and also leaves all competitors far behind.

But this technology has not become widespread among ordinary users. This is due to the high cost of models using OLED technology. Also, due to the unusual technology of constructing the matrix, devices with this technology lost their qualities over time. They have been replaced by QLED technology from Samsung. This solution made it possible to increase the “lifetime” of devices with this technology.

What is the difference between LED and QLED

The matrix of QLED devices is built on organic diodes that emit light. When an electric current passes through these elements, they begin to emit light of the required shade, which ensures high contrast and color rendition of the picture. Unlike LCD TVs, this technology does not require external backlighting, which makes the image quality much higher. Thanks to the ability to turn off the LEDs, the black color becomes richer than that of LCD screens, whose backlight never turns off. This also helps reduce energy consumption.

Another important advantage of a QLED screen over an LCD is the refresh rate.Since it takes much longer to reposition the crystals, QLED technology allows for updates up to 1,000 times faster than LCD monitors. This factor is extremely important for those who are engaged in professional gaming, and for those for whom the speed of change of the image on the screen is the most decisive factor when choosing a monitor or TV.

REFERENCE! OLED devices boast a wide viewing angle. Since LEDs emit light on their own, the screens are not very susceptible to glare or light reflections from the surface. This allows you to maintain picture quality regardless of the ambient lighting and the angle at which the user looks at the screen.

What OLED TVs are produced?

Unfortunately, TVs with QLED technology are produced only under the Samsung brand and are in a fairly high price segment. This is why many manufacturers still produce TV devices with an OLED matrix.

On the market you can find models such as the LG OLED65E7V in the price range from 150,000 to 200,000 rubles, which has a 64.5’ diagonal and supports Ultra HD (4k) resolution.

Among the more budget ones, we can highlight the LD OLED55B8 model with a diagonal of 54.6’. And although this device supports 4K, its price is much lower and starts at 80 thousand rubles. This is undoubtedly caused by the smaller diagonal.

IMPORTANT! LG also competes with Sony with models KD-55A1 from 130 thousand rubles and KD-55A8 from 170 thousand rubles. These models, like their competitors, support UHD(4k) technology and have impressive dimensions.

Also on the market you can find devices from Panasonic in the form of models TX-55FZR800 and TX-65FZR800 with prices of 150 thousand.rubles and 250 thousand. rubles respectively. They differ mainly only in diagonal.

In conclusion, the debate about the longevity of OLED devices is still ongoing. Every year more and more different models are released, which are becoming more durable and durable. A representative from LG claims that their devices can work 8 hours a day for 10 years without loss of quality. It has not yet been possible to find out whether this is true or not, since the device has just appeared on the shelves.
