Samsung has announced its first 85-inch 8K resolution QLED television, the Samsung Q900R is now available for reservation at a price of $15,000. This new television will be delivered on October 28. We’ll tell you all the details.
Samsung releases the world’s first television with the 85-inch QLED 8K panel
Samsung claims that the TV’s 8K AI upscaling feature uses its Quantum 8K processor to turn today’s content into an amazing 8K with improved detail and resolution. Like all Samsung QLED TVs, the Q900R has an environmental mode that allows you to take a photo of the room behind your TV with your mobile phone and set it as a screen to create a transparent appearance. It can also display your photos or act as a visual center so that your gadgets associated with SmartThings display useful information.
In terms of specifications, the Samsung model will have a maximum brightness of 4000 Nits, as well as compatibility with the HDR10+ standard. It also offers HDR10, HLG and even an HMDI 2.1 port that supports 8K video at a frame rate of 30 fps.
As an alternative, Samsung’s QLED series of 4K televisions are much cheaper in the range of $1,600 to $5,300 and have most of the same features. But if you still want the 8K TV, the site offers you a payment plan of $415.70 per month for 36 months.
The image improvement is completed by the introduction of 8K upscaling technology, which uses Artificial Intelligence and the 8K Quantum processor, which adapts the lower resolution content to the 8K resolution, either with images from a streaming service, via HDMI, USB or even by duplicating the mobile screen.
It will take a long time for the 8K resolution to become the standard because the 4K is starting to spread among users, without even mentioning that many of them still have 1080p panels. There’s no doubt that the 8K is the future, but it’s better not to lose your mind when you buy a product that we still can’t really use.
The use of AI will also make sense when it comes to audio because thanks to the processing power of the Samsung Q900R QLED 8K you can analyze the sound at any time and optimize it in real time to deliver the highest possible quality. We’ll have to see how it turns out.
