Samsung Electronics will kick-off its line-up of ultra high definition (UHD) displays with the introduction of a 98-inch UHD commercial large format display (LFD) and a 31.5-inch UHD monitor at IFA 2013, to be held from September 6 to September 11 in Berlin, Germany.


The 98-inch UHD LFD is the largest in the industry and provides four times higher resolution than Full HD displays available currently in the market. The new large format display can be installed vertically to create a larger display screen for a more immersive experience.

At IFA 2013, Samsung will create a large video wall measuring 171 inches (the size of a passenger car) by connecting three vertically oriented UHD LFDs side-by-side.

In response to the trend of monitor sizes increase, Samsung will unveil its very first 31.5-inch UHD monitor. Packing 8.3 million pixels, the 31.5″ UHD has four times the number of pixels than a Full HD display (2.07 million pixels).

For colour accuracy and reproduction, the monitor supports calibration via a separate software. The new monitor displays 1 billion colours and supports 99 percent coverage of the Adobe RGB colour space.
