Samsung might phase out QLED TVs — but there could be a silver lining for you
There are reports that Samsung is winding down production of so-called QLED (quantum dot) TVs. Here's why it could be a good deal for shoppers.
Samsung may be winding down QLED TV production, but this could lead to cheaper Micro RGB TVs down the line. According to ETNews, Samsung could cut QLED production by 80% and potentially stop making them entirely by 2028. QLED technology was popularized by Samsung, but Neo QLEDs are now being phased out, and some have lost hardware-based local dimming.
However, Samsung has introduced Micro RGB TVs, which use colored backlights to enhance color. These are Samsung's most affordable options currently, with the 55-inch R85H starting at $1199. If QLEDs are indeed phased out, Samsung's Micro RGB lineup may expand further, potentially becoming the most affordable tier of TVs.
