Samsung Electronics Singapore today announced the launch of its flagship line of Samsung 2018 QLED TVs, Premium UHD TVs, UHD TVs and AV products. This next generation of home entertainment products enhances the TV-viewing experience like never before.
The 2018 QLED TV line-up features Direct Full Array backlighting technology and a stylish Magic Screen for spectacular picture quality and seamless design. Meanwhile, the 2018 Premium UHD and UHD TV line-up also comes with impressive features that are sure to enhance the quality of consumer lifestyles. The clear and immersive sound systems from the latest AV products also elevate home entertainment to a whole new level.
Stunning Picture Quality
There is a hidden director behind all 2018 Samsung QLED TVs. This hidden director gives breath to QLED’s proprietary features and allows them to come alive in delivering extraordinary picture performance. The Q Engine is the powerful processor behind QLED’s spectacular picture quality. With its brilliant data analysis and tuning processes, it creates the most life-like images in impressive colour, clarity, contrast and HDR on the Samsung QLED TVs.
The 2018 flagship Q9F series creates impeccable picture quality with the Direct Full Array backlighting technology. It allows consumers to view stunning images with pristine contrast. The technology uses a panel with zones of smartly controlled backlighting that adjusts automatically to deliver deeper blacks and purer whites, reducing blooming and halo effects while enabling dramatic contrast. This ensures that the screen is illuminated accurately, providing consumers with the perfect viewing experience.
The TV That Blends In
Consumers no longer have to worry about cable clutter with Samsung’s simple solution: the Invisible Connection 2.0.
The new One Invisible Connection 2.0 is a slim cable that integrates power cable and data lines that were previously separated. It connects to the One Connect box and harmonizes the TV with the surrounding’s aesthetics.
Available for up to 15 metres, the One Invisible Connection 2.0 enhances consumer lifestyle by providing flexibility for TV placement in homes. Now, consumers don’t have to place your TV near data or power outlets! By plugging devices into the One Connect box instead of the back of the TV, wire clutter will be reduced, providing consumers with a world of opportunities to finally design their space the way they want it.
Magic Screen
In addition to delivering the ultimate viewing experience, the Samsung QLED TVs are also thoughtfully designed to seamlessly blend in with consumer homes and living spaces.
For wall-mounted TVs, the Magic Screen can mimic the pattern on the wall behind the TV to create an astonishing visual effect in which the TV blends seamlessly into the wall. In addition to the seamless integration with living room spaces, the Magic Screen also provides useful information throughout the day – from playing music to weather updates.
Premium UHD and UHD
Samsung is offering new models in the 2018 Premium UHD TV line-up, which includes the NU8500 and NU8000.
The line-up features realistic and vibrant images reproduced in over a billion colours, allowing consumers to elevate their viewing experience. The TVs also come with Smart TV enhancements and the clean cable solution, providing consumers with a connected lifestyle through a clutter-free living space.
Samsung is also offering new models in the 2018 UHD TV line-up which includes features such as 4K UHD and HDR picture capabilities powered by HDR 10+4, clean cable solutions, slim design and Smart TV functions. The line-up is designed to give consumers not only an enhanced picture quality, but also provide consumers with beautiful aesthetics that will seamlessly blend in with living spaces.
