Let’s start with the bad news: Samsung’s first micro-RGB television is scandalously expensive. But technology will quickly make its way to more affordable models and could be an important rival for the OLED.
The recently announced TV micro-RGB uses exceptionally small LEDs from Samsung to provide what Samsung says is “a new reference for color accuracy, contrast and immersive vision in the ultra-premium TV segment”.
It was first launched in South Korea with a price of 44.9 million KRW; This is equivalent to around $ 32,000 / £ 24,000 / € 28,000 / 49,750 $ in. The United States will then obtain the TV, and it will take place on more markets after that.
What is so great in micro-RGB?
The display uses a micro-scale RVB LED backlight comprising LEDs ROB, green and blue with individual control, each, each measurement of less than 100 µm. This means that the TV can provide much more precise lighting than a traditionally backlit LED TV, and it means more precise and precise color reproduction.
The display is supplied by the micro RVB engine of Samsung, which analyzes each frame in real time and optimizes the color output; It can also improve dull color tones and improve them intelligently to make them more lively and immersive – let’s hope it less dramatically than color optimization on my Samsung Qled, which makes terrifying things to the complexion of people.
The color release meets 100% BT.2020, the world standard, and has been certified as “micro RVB precision color” by the German Electrical Engineering Institute VDE (Verband der Elektrotechnik).
Although the television will only be available as a 115 -inch model at launch, Samsung intends to quickly expand the range: it promises “a global deployment with a variety of sizes to meet customer needs” after the American launch.
