Bigger is Still Better: Samsung on How TVs Still Shape Our Entertainment Experience

MANILA, Philippines (June 9, 2026) – In today’s world, we have more ways than ever to access our favorite content. Everyday, we can watch a show during a commute or follow sports highlights on social media. But while portable devices undeniably offer convenience for on-the-go consumption, 20-year global No. 1 TV brand Samsung argues that televisions continue to own the depth of viewing experience.

“In recent years, we have seen a transformation in how people consume content with a rise in preference for convenient, short-form entertainment,” said Samsung Philippines Head of Audio and Video Chris Almazan. “But when we want to be fully immersed in our passions, whether it’s a favorite film, sport, or game, people naturally gravitate toward the biggest and most capable screen in the home — which remains to be the TV.”

With its latest lineup of Vision AI TVs, Samsung proves that some experiences are better with a bigger screen.

Scaling Your Passions Requires Bigger Screens

According to Samsung, televisions are among the most accessible ways for people to nurture their passions. “Display innovation has always been about helping consumers connect more deeply with the things they love,” argued Almazan. This is the guiding principle for the new Samsung Vision AI TVs. “Whether it’s watching a blockbuster film, cheering for their team, or diving into virtual realms, we wanted to make every experience more meaningful through monumental scale and innovative display technology,” he explained.

The new Micro RGB Vision AI TV introduces a breakthrough display architecture that produces richer colors with greater accuracy and breathtaking vibrance. This allows viewers to experience every frame exactly how they are intended, delivering remarkable cinematic depth and nuance like only televisions can. The Samsung TV Plus app enriches the viewing experience, offering instant access to hundreds of live channels and thousands of on-demand titles at no additional cost. “We want Samsung TVs to allow people to spend less time searching and more time exploring new interests without barriers,” shared Almazan.

Meanwhile, the Mini LED Vision AI TV immerses audiences deeper into their passions through AI-enhanced processing and precise light control. The Neo QLED Vision AI TVs support multitasking and connected living with premium visuals and intelligent features, making balancing everyday entertainment with everyday productivity more seamless. Viewers gain competitive gaming edge and more immersive entertainment with the Samsung OLED Vision AI TV’s ultra-fast responsiveness and exceptional audiovisual quality.

Almazan asserted, “When people are pursuing their passions, they want an experience that draws them in completely. That’s where television continues to excel as it gives people the space to engage with what they love on a scale that feels more impactful and memorable.”

Vision AI Companion Takes You Beyond Passive Viewing

Today’s consumers demand more out of their TVs. Aside from massive scale and advanced audio and display, Samsung finds that TVs have to adapt to the lifestyles of modern households. Through Vision AI Companion, Samsung transforms televisions into intuitive companions, capable of understanding user preferences, anticipating needs, and delivering more personalized experiences. Leveraging advanced natural language processing, users can converse with their TV to seek real-time recommendations or instantly pull up information they need.

“Samsung envisions the TV as a highly intelligent companion that actively enhances daily living,” noted Almazan. “By integrating Vision AI Companion to Samsung TVs, we want to eliminate friction from the viewing experience and empower your TVs to do more. With TVs that effortlessly adapt to user habits, they can maximize and personalize their entertainment experience in a way that only televisions can.”

Managing Your Home is Safer and More Efficient with SmartThings

Aside from seamless viewing experiences, Samsung also empowers homes with effortless connectivity through TVs, evolving the television into a central hub that assists users as they orchestrate the rhythm of their home. “The TV occupies a unique place within the home. It’s often the largest, most visible screen in the household and where families naturally gather. This makes it the ideal place to connect and manage the broader smart home experience,” said Almazan.

SmartThings integration allows Samsung TVs to connect devices through one intuitive interface. From managing and monitoring connected appliances to managing energy consumption, Samsung TVs put users in full control of their daily routines.

The Head of VD at Samsung further stated, “The goal is to have Samsung televisions actively support a smarter, more efficient household. When you can manage your smart devices through the TV, it becomes an irreplaceable tool for modern living.” By reducing complexity and bringing information together in one place, Samsung televisions help people spend more time enjoying what matters the most.

With more homes adapting smart, connected devices, robust security becomes even more important. Samsung recognizes that consumers expect their connected devices to perform seamlessly, while also protecting their personal data and information. “We built the Samsung Knox Security directly into the television experience. It operates to help safeguard personal data, protect connected devices, and defend against potential threats through continuous monitoring and software protection,” explained Almazan.

He added, “Samsung believes that consumers shouldn’t have to choose between convenience and security. With televisions becoming increasingly integrated into daily life, security must be embedded into the experience from the very beginning.”

By providing robust security alongside premium entertainment experiences, Samsung aims to ensure that the television remains the biggest and most trusted screen in the home.

The Best TVs are Built for the Long Run

In many households, televisions are among one of the longest-lasting technology investments people make. For Samsung, this longevity is supported by durable hardware and continuous software innovation.

Powered by One UI Tizen, the new Samsung Vision AI TVs guarantee up to 7 years of OS upgrades. “We want to ensure that Samsung televisions continue to deliver value by adapting and evolving for years to come,” said Almazan. Through this, new features and improvements can be introduced over time, helping users stay up to date without constantly upgrading devices.

“Consumers deserve technology that grows with them, adapts to their needs, and keeps pace with innovation,” he stated. This approach reflects Samsung’s commitment to pushing innovation designed for long-term value.

For all the technological advancements shaping today’s televisions, Samsung finds that the most important role of the TV remains unchanged.

“TVs continue to bring families and communities together, from watching movies and catching the most exciting live sporting events, to taking on new virtual worlds and discovering stories that inspire them,” Almazan shared. “In a world increasingly defined by individual screens and fragmented attention, televisions continue to create moments of shared experience.”

He added, “Technology will continue to evolve, but the human desire for meaningful experiences remains constant. Samsung’s goal is to create TVs that make those experiences richer, more immersive, and more memorable than ever. That’s why televisions continue to matter, and why we believe its best days are yet to come.”
