Samsung to Ship World's First 8K TV Oct. 28
 

Never mind the utter lack of native 8K content: those with $15,000 to spare can purchase Samsung's 85-inch QLED 8K Q900TV by the tail end of this month. The set features a 7,680 x 4,320 panel capable of 4,000 nits of brightness and upscaling aided with artificial intelligence (AI) processing. The Q900FN, which S&V's Tom Norton said "looked stunning" in CEDIA demos, features an enhanced version of Samsung's LCD-based QLED technology. The Q in QLED stands for quantum dot, a backlight technology that uses a more precise method to generate the red, green, and blue light that makes up a video image than the process typically used in standard LCD displays.
