What is an OLED TV? Is an OLED TV worth it?An OLED TV is a high-end TV that uses self-illuminating pixels on screen, different from other TV models that rely on a backlight to illuminate the screen from behind. Each pixel in an OLED TV can be individually turned on and off, resulting in ultra-precise dimming and lighting control. The unique technology that enables OLED TVs is in the very name — "OLED" stands for "Organic Light Emitting Diode."
Due to the superior contrast and refresh rates, it's worth getting an OLED TV for immersive experiences like gaming. Because OLED TVs can turn off lighting right down to the pixel, they can create deeper blacks and enhanced contrast that really make the details on screen stand out. In addition, the pixel-precise control in OLED TVs allows for quick responses to changes to the image on screen — resulting in high refresh rates and ultra-smooth motion.
So in short, it's worth getting an OLED TV for the incredible immersion that the superior contrast and refresh rates provide, especially if you're a dedicated gamer. -
What is the difference between OLED and QLED TVs?The main difference between Samsung OLED and QLED TVs is the lighting technology — OLED TVs use self-illuminating pixels on screen, while QLED TVs have a backlight that illuminates nanoscale-sized particles called Quantum Dots.
While both OLED and QLED TVs are high-end TVs with incredible picture quality, this difference in lighting technology leads to subtle differences in how the images are displayed. With self-illuminating pixels that can be individually turned on and off, OLED TVs are able to create deeper blacks and more dramatic contrast. On the other hand, QLED TVs have Quantum Dots that can each radiate its own colored light, resulting in enhanced brightness and color accuracy.
