Samsung launched their revolutionary Neo QLED 8K TV earlier this year, and it is equipped with the latest technological innovations to enhance your viewing experience

Boasting a plethora of revolutionary features, the Samsung Neo QLED 8K was designed to emulate the look and feel of a movie theatre. Nowadays, most consumers prefer to use streaming services for their daily dose of entertainment, all while in the comfort of their own home. That's why Samsung has carefully curated their latest release to offer the best in terms of display, audio, and design.

From Quantum Mini LEDs to Object Tracking Sound Pro (OTS Pro), this Smart TV has been fitted with high-tech features in order to provide a theatre-like experience.

Here's a closer look at the technology behind the Neo QLED 8K:

1. Experience a richer viewing experience with 8K resolution, spectacularly vivid colours, and incredibly detailed displays

In order to capture detailed and accurate images, a TV needs to have control over its LED lights. Thanks to the Neo QLED 8K's tiny Quantum Mini LEDs, it is capable of expressing all the fine details on-screen, while maintaining precise backlight control.

For lighting control, that's where the Quantum Matrix Technology Pro steps in. It enables ultra-fine and precise control of the densely packed LEDs, which minimises blooming (also known as the halo effect). With an increase of contrast levels from the conventional 10-bit to 12-bit, this provides detailed dimming control and exquisitely precise black colour levels, which results in amazingly accurate images.

Looking to upscale the quality of a movie or series that has low resolution? Now you can, as the Neo Quantum Processor 8K uses 16 multi-neural networks to produce 8K-level resolution, no matter the image quality of the source.

If you've ever struggled to discern the details within a scene that is too bright or too dark, the Quantum HDR 64x function solves this problem. It optimises colours and contrasts according to the scene, so you can see every detail.

2. A cinematic view isn't complete without an immersive, three-dimensional audio experience, which comes from the TV's built-in speakers

OTS Pro allows you to hear the sounds exactly where it is happening on your TV. The sound corresponds to the movement of objects on screen, from all corners of the screen to the centre. For example, if a car is drifting from left to right, you will hear revving sounds moving along with the car, offering a realistic audio experience.

If that isn't enough, having your audio tailored according to your surroundings is another awesome feature of the Neo QLED 8K, with the help of SpaceFit Sound. It analyses the TV's physical environment and outputs immersive sound accordingly.

3. The minimalistic and stylish design of the Neo QLED 8K calls for less cable clutter

This TV incorporates the Infinity One design, which is ultimately a slim and modern looking flatscreen. Along with the Infinity Screen, it offers a nearly bezel-less screen, providing an even more immersive viewing experience.

You no longer have to worry about having a mess of cables, as the slimmer One Connect box can now be attached to the TV. You can either tuck it away behind the TV, or place it to the side. 

With the Slim Fit Wall Mount, you can place the Neo QLED 8K on the wall like a piece of art. Even with the TV mounted to the wall, you can still connect your external devices with a single cable.  

4. Being a Smart TV, it offers smart features beyond a conventional TV, helping consumers meet their changing needs when it comes to fitness, entertainment, and working from home

Gamers will definitely appreciate the options to choose between the 21:9 and 32:9 aspect ratios with Super Ultrawide GameView, which provides unprecedented wide views of all the action.

Aside from entertainment, you can also connect other Samsung devices to the TV, making it easier for you to work or learn from home through the TV screen.Connect your PC, laptop, and smartphone to your TV easily. Plus, you can even connect your mouse and keyboard for easier navigation!

Want to use the Neo QLED 8K for video calling purposes? With Google Duo, you can use your phone to initiate high-quality, high-speed video calls, where up to 32 people can join at a time. It's even possible for you to mirror your video call on the big screen with Video Call Mirroring. Simply tap the back of your phone against your TV to mirror your phone's screen. You can even continue watching TV at the same time by using the Multi View feature.

Additionally, if you have the Samsung DeX feature on a Galaxy smartphone, you can view documents from your phone on your TV. Cloud services such as Office 365 and Microsoft Teams are also supported. This means it's possible for you to check out cloud documents like Word on your TV, or work on documents with coworkers.

With a range of sizes from 65-inch to 85-inch, you'll be able to choose your preferred screen size of the Neo QLED 8K that fits perfectly in your home
