Samsung’s 2018 QLED TV can mimic the look of your living room wall

Samsung 2018 QLED TV

What do you call a TV that’s so smart it can mimic your wall when it’s not in use? What do you call a TV that offers the blackest of blacks and whitest of whites and can connect to other smart devices in your home? It’s called an Intelligent TV Display, and it’s Samsung’s vision for the future of the TV.

First introduced in early March at New York, Samsung’s 2018 QLED TV range is ready to make its presence known in Malaysian living rooms.

The new QLED TVs are beautifully minimalist, intelligent and offer the best audio-visual experience today’s users expect.

They feature Samsung’s Quantum Dot technology, offering 100 percent colour volume that makes a billion colours possible.

The 2018 QLED TVs feature the new Direct Full Array which uses a panel with zones of smartly controlled backlighting that adjusts automatically to deliver deep blacks and pure whites.

By the way, the TVs support HDR10 out of the box, through Samsung’s proprietary Q HDR technology, so you’ll get the best dynamic range possible on the TV.

The TVs also include advanced Anti-reflection technology to ensure picture quality is consistent from almost any angle.

Also, Samsung’s Q Engine technology automatically scales on-screen content to UHD resolution.

Like magic.

What’s really cool is a feature called Magic Screen, an energy-saving function that lets the TV display images as well as real-time information like the weather or news.

But that’s not the awesome part. Magic Screen can mimic the pattern on the wall behind the TV, so it can seamlessly blend into the wall for effect.

Introduced with the first generation QLED TV is Samsung’s innovative solution to reduce cable clutter. Called the One Invisible Connection, it’s a single cable that integrates power cables and data lines, available up to 15m.

In addition, the new QLED TVs can connect seamlessly with SmartThings-compatible devices like the Samsung Powerbot vacuum cleaner or Samsung fridge. This is managed and controlled via the SmartThings app, available as a free download.

With voice assistants playing a growing part of our daily lives, it’s no surprise that the new QLED TVs feature Bixby support out-of-the-box. Just click voice recognition on the sleek new One Remote Control or your mobile, and Bixby is at your beck-and-call.
