Samsung’s AI TV, 2024 Neo QLED 8K QN900D, is equipped with the 8K NQ8 AI Gen3 Processor, the company’s most powerful processor to date, as well as a neural processing unit (NPU) that runs twice as fast as its predecessor. Featuring eight times as many neural networks — 512 instead of 64 — the new AI TV analyzes and optimises content in real time, delivering superior picture and sound quality and elevating the TV experience to one that places viewers at the center.

Full Immersion With AI Picture Technology

Watching a tennis match with the Samsung AI TV is like getting courtside seats. Every serve and every volley come to life right in the living room.

This immersive experience is possible thanks to 8K AI Upscaling Pro and AI Motion Enhancer Pro which work together to deliver exceptional clarity by sharpening low-resolution content and minimizing ball distortion and blurring.

Revolutionising Audio

Lifelike audio is equally important — and with AI guiding the experience, dialogue is crystal clear even in loud surroundings. Active Voice Amplifier Pro distinguishes between voices and background noise, cutting through the commotion so viewers hear only what’s important.

When watching a movie with Object Tracking Sound (OTS) Pro, viewers are no longer spectators — they’re in the character’s shoes, hearing everything from all directions.

Effortless Fine-Tuning

With AI Optimisation, viewers can sit back and relax. This feature automatically fine-tunes the TV’s settings for the best viewing experience. Likewise, gamers don’t have to worry about adjusting the picture or sound with AI Auto Game Mode, which recognises game titles and genres and automatically optimises settings for an upgraded experience.

AI Energy Mode conserves energy by using sensors to analyze ambient lighting before automatically adjusting the AI TV screen’s brightness. Similarly, the TV’s processor can identify on-screen motion and alter screen brightness. This feature represents a step toward greater sustainability.

Meanwhile, Samsung Tizen OS turns the AI TV into more than an entertainment center. A personal curator, the operating system tailors content to users’ preferences while protecting their privacy with Samsung Knox.

At its best, technology that enriches lives sits in the background — present, but not intrusive. Samsung’s AI TV continues to evolve to do just that by pushing the frontier of audio and visual experiences, personalised experiences and enhanced sustainability while putting AI to work under the hood.
