...Samsung still isn't touching OLED, continues to chase microLED
...Last year, Samsung debuted "The Wall" — a massive 146-inch TV made up of smaller panels of micro LEDs. The company is still showing off that technology, only now it's configured an even bigger wall, as well as a TV called "The Window," and a slightly more normal 75-inch microLED TV.
How it works is a bit of a mystery, but the purported advantage over OLED something Samsung hopes to corner the market on: no burn-in, higher brightness, a "modular" form factor (the phrase "infinite resolution" has been thrown around), and easier manufacturing.
Samsung had various microLED panels mounted on a wall that moved between sections, changing and accepting images as they joined together. It was pretty wild.
During its First Look Event, Samsung showed off tiny, moving sections of microLED that could be mounted together or stripped apart as the owner desires. This is very unique, somewhat bizarre stuff, but you could potentially start with a very small micro LED TV and grow it over time as you bought and added more micro LED segments. It sounds like science fiction, but it we saw it work.
The only thing that's not entirely exciting about this show of tech is that it's very unlikely to come to market this year. But who knows? If LG is really bringing an OLED that rolls up inside its own base to market in 2019, anything is possible.
There's no denying that the microLED TVs design makes for bright, impressive images at seemingly any size. Now we just need a price tag.
In fact, the possibilities seem fairly limitless. Considering each section of micro LEDs is its own standalone module, you can make massive displays with many of them that don't suffer from the uniformity or halo-bleeding issues associated with very large LED/LCD TVs and traditional local dimming setups. But until these micro LED sections get some kind of price tag, we're all just window shopping...
https://www.reviewed.com/televisions/features/here-are-all-the-samsung-tvs-coming-in-2019sounds very cool. last year they managed to show 4k micro led in 146" screen size, and one year later, they probably manage to shrink the pixels like 4 times smaller to fit 4k micro led in 75" screen. That might means, next year, they probably will be able to shrink the pixels another 4 times smaller, fitting 4k micro led in screen size as small as 40".
the other micro led they mentioned can be connect together to make bigger screen or disconnect if they wanted to. sound very cool and interesting.
