<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung Electronics has announced that it ranks as the world’s No.1 TV brand<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span><sup>[1]</sup></span></a> for the 20th consecutive year — marking two decades as the global innovator in the television industry.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung had held the top position in the global TV market since 2006 and according to market research firm Omdia’s<span> report</span>, the company recorded a 29.1% share of the global TV market in 2025. This achievement reinforces Samsung’s top position across premium, ultra-large and next-generation display technologies. Samsung led the premium segment priced over $2,500 with a 54.3% market share, driven by Neo QLED, OLED and lifestyle TVs. It also maintained its top position in the segment over $1,500, holding a 52.2% market share.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span><strong>20 Years of Industry-Defining Innovation</strong></span></h3>
<p>Since first reaching the No.1 position in 2006 with its design-led <span><strong>Bordeaux TV,</strong></span> Samsung has consistently innovated to reshape the television industry:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><span><strong>2009:</strong></span> The company accelerated the global transition to <span><strong>LED TVs &#8211; </strong></span>setting new standards for slimmer, more energy-efficient displays.</li>
<li><span><strong>2011: </strong></span>The introduction of <span><strong>Smart TVs</strong></span> further transformed televisions into connected entertainment platforms &#8211; expanding their role beyond traditional viewing.</li>
<li><span><strong>2015: The Serif</strong></span><span> </span>reimagined how TVs integrate into living spaces by introducing a design-focused TV that positioned the screen as a statement piece within the home.</li>
<li><span><strong>2017:</strong></span> The company launched <span><strong>The Frame,</strong></span> pioneering the <span><strong>Art TV </strong></span>category by transforming the television into a customisable digital art canvas.</li>
<li><strong>2017: </strong>In premium picture quality, Samsung continued to set industry benchmarks with the introduction of <span><strong>QLED TVs</strong></span> powered by quantum dot technology.</li>
<li><span><strong>2018: 8K TVs</strong></span> delivered four times more the resolution of 4K.</li>

</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Through continuous advancements in picture quality, smart functionality and display innovation &#8211; Samsung has played a defining role in establishing today’s premium TV standards.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span><strong>Strengthening its Position in Premium and Next-Generation TVs</strong></span></h3>
<p>Building on its legacy of innovation, Samsung continues to evolve its premium TV portfolio with expanded<span><strong> Micro RGB </strong></span>models, advancing its next-generation display technologies and reinforcing its invention in high-performance screens. The company also continues to enhance its <span><strong>OLED </strong></span>and <span><strong>Neo QLED</strong></span> line-ups, delivering premium picture quality, ultra-large screen options and differentiated display performance.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung is expanding its <span><strong>Mini LED </strong></span>offerings as well, bringing enhanced brightness, contrast and precision control to a wider range of screen sizes and price tiers to extend advanced display performance across its line-up. At the same time, continued investment in<span><strong> AI-powered TVs </strong></span>integrates advanced processors and intelligent features that optimise picture, sound and personalisation in real time.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-25268 size-large" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Front_KV1-Option-2-1024x469.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="469" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Front_KV1-Option-2-1024x469.jpg 1024w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Front_KV1-Option-2-1000x458.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Front_KV1-Option-2-768x351.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>From 01 April to 31 May 2026, Samsung is running &#8211; TV Lifestyle campaign** that gives customers great savings across The Frame and OLED TVs, giving them a chance to tailor their technology to match their personal style, interior design and lifestyle needs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This promotion displays a connection between art and technology through design that integrates Samsung’s high-end display innovations with curated artistic content – thereby transforming its customers’ functional electronics into lifestyle centerpieces. With this promotion, Samsung is showcasing that its high-tech and innovative TV products are accessible to a broader audience, while also making art a personalised part of the home.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Through its partnership with Art Basel, Samsung is able to bring high-quality artwork into customers’ homes &#8211; turning the TV screen into a more personal, everyday way to discover and live with art. In particular, The Frame TV transforms living spaces by adding artistic displays, functioning as a television when you’re watching sports or your favourite movie and a lifelike work of art in other times. It is designed to blend seamlessly into your home décor, showcasing curated masterpieces or even your personal photography.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Frame’s features include the Art Mode<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span><sup>[1]</sup></span></a>, which ensures that when the TV is switched off, it automatically transitions to display digital art from a vast library or your own uploaded photos via the Samsung SmartThings<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span><sup>[2]</sup></span></a>  app. And, with Matte Display – models from 2022 onwards &#8211; now feature a specialised anti-glare<a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3"><span><sup>[3]</sup></span></a> matte finish that drastically reduces reflections ensuring that the digital screen looks like an authentic canvas.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung has also recently released the &#8220;Art Basel Hong Kong&#8221; collection on the Samsung Art Store<a href="#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4"><span><sup>[4]</sup></span></a> &#8211; a digital art subscription platform that is home to 5,000+ artworks and 800+ artists from world-renowned institutions like The Met, Musée du Louvre and The Van Gogh Museum as well as through its 80+ partnerships.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This longstanding collaboration with Art Basel, one of the largest art fairs globally &#8211; expands local customers’ access to world-class art in everyday spaces. This also allows these strategic partners the ability to provide more people with the opportunity to live with outstanding works of art every day. And that’s not all, Samsung customers are now able to enjoy the Art Store Streams &#8211; a complimentary service that provides a rotating set of 30 curated artworks every month, without a full subscription.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-25269 size-large" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Back_KV-1-1024x469.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="469" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Back_KV-1-1024x469.jpg 1024w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Back_KV-1-1000x458.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/TV-Lifestyle-assets_Back_KV-1-768x351.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Samsung Art Store is available across a wide range of Samsung’s Art TV<a href="#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5"><span><sup>[5]</sup></span></a> line-up, including The Frame Pro, The Frame, Micro RGB, Neo QLED, QLED and OLED &#8211; allowing viewers to experience highlights from the fair wherever they are.

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-23093 size-large" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/S90F_FRONT_STAND_BeautyShot_39206-R3-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/S90F_FRONT_STAND_BeautyShot_39206-R3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/S90F_FRONT_STAND_BeautyShot_39206-R3-844x563.jpg 844w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/S90F_FRONT_STAND_BeautyShot_39206-R3-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Image quality has become a key deciding factor for consumers. Beyond screen size or resolution, the real difference today lies in the technology behind colour, brightness and visual fidelity – therefore, understanding these elements is crucial for identifying a high-performance television.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>One of the most significant advancements is the Real Quantum Dot technology certification from TÜV Rheinland<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span><sup>[1]</sup></span></a> that certain Samsung televisions are accredited with. This innovation elevates the viewing experience to a new level and differs from other solutions that use alternative layers or colour simulations. Quantum dots are ultra-fine nanomaterials, tens of thousands of times smaller than a human hair, renowned for their ability to reproduce precise and vivid colors depending on light wavelength. The method by which quantum dots are integrated into display panels has become a key indicator for evaluating technological advancement in the premium TV segment. Thanks to this technology, it is possible to achieve 100% colour volume<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span><sup>[1]</sup></span></a>, delivering brighter and more realistic images &#8211; even in scenes with high levels of brightness or contrast.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Another important aspect of Real Quantum Dot technology is its contribution to the durability and safety of the television. By not using materials such as cadmium<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span><sup>[2]</sup></span></a> &#8211; this innovation allows for more stable visual performance over time and aligns with current sustainability and environmental standards.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><img class="aligncenter wp-image-23274 size-large" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-845x563.jpg 845w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></h3>
<h3></h3>
<h3><strong>So, what should you consider when choosing a high-performance TV?</strong></h3>
<p>Verify that the television uses advanced technologies such as Real Quantum Dot, capable of reproducing accurate and consistent colours, even in very bright scenes. Look for equipment that offers 100% colour volume<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span><sup>[2]</sup></span></a> , which delivers more vivid and accurate images across different types of content.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Brightness stability:</strong> a Real Quamtum Dot TV maintains brightness and colour intensity without degrading. Opt for technologies that do not use elements such as cadmium<a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3"><span><sup>[3]</sup></span></a>, which are associated with better long-term performance and current sustainability standards. Beyond resolution, consider how the image behaves under different lighting conditions and in content such as movies, sports or video games.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Choosing a television goes beyond comparing sizes or resolutions:</strong> it involves understanding how the technology behind the image works.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Upgrading your TV is an increasingly important decision for those seeking an improved home entertainment experience. Beyond screen size or resolution, there&#8217;s a technology that makes a real difference in picture quality: Real Quantum Dot Display, certified by TÜV Rheinland, an international certification organization based in Germany and featured in certain Samsung TVs. Samsung’s quantum dot technology has also been developed without cadmium<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span><sup>[1]</sup></span></a> &#8211; a material toxic to health and the environment.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-23274 size-large" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-845x563.jpg 845w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN80FFF-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thanks to this innovation &#8211; Samsung achieves 100% colour volume<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span><sup>[2]</sup></span></a>, great brightness and durability, positioning itself as a benchmark in high quality visual technology.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Not all QLEDs are created equal. Samsung’s Real QLED has earned official certification from TÜV Rheinland<a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3"><span><sup>[3]</sup></span></a> confirming compliance with the IEC 62595-1-6 international standard, the benchmark for authentic quantum dot (QD) displays.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Realistic And Vibrant Colours With Real Quantum Dot</strong></h3>
<p>Real Quantum Dot technology uses nanocrystals that transform light into accurate colours, achieving near-realistic reproduction. This results in more vibrant images, sharper details and an immersive experience for both movies and TV shows. Unlike technologies without the <a href="https://news.samsung.com/za/samsung-qled-tvs-earn-real-quantum-dot-display-certification-from-tuv-rheinland" target="_blank" rel="noopener">certification</a>, Samsung TVs with Real Quantum Dot maintain their image quality for longer &#8211; guaranteeing long-lasting performance.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Cadmium-Free<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span><sup>[1]</sup></span></a>: Responsible Innovation</strong></h3>
<p>One of Samsung&#8217;s major differentiators is that its Real Quantum Dot technology is cadmium-free<sup>1</sup>, a heavy metal commonly used in traditional displays that poses risks to health and the environment. By removing this component, Samsung improves the safety of its products, without sacrificing quality or visual performance.</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><strong>Greater Brightness &amp; Contrast For Different Types Of Content</strong></h3>
<p><a href="https://www.samsung.com/za/tvs/all-tvs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Samsung TVs</strong></a> offer superior brightness, allowing you to enjoy clear images even in brightly lit environments. Furthermore, optimised contrast highlights details in both dark and bright scenes. This allows for a cinematic experience at home, with accurate colours and greater image depth.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>What Makes Samsung’s QLED Technology Genuine?</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Not all QLEDs are created equal. Samsung’s Real QLED has earned official certification from <a href="https://news.samsung.com/za/samsung-qled-tvs-earn-real-quantum-dot-display-certification-from-tuv-rheinland">TÜV Rheinland</a><a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3"><span><sup>[3] </sup></span></a>confirming compliance with the IEC 62595-1-6 international standard, the benchmark for authentic quantum dot (QD) displays.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In simple terms, this certification guarantees that your TV delivers high picture quality powered by genuine Quantum Dot technology, delivering colour accuracy and brightness.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung’s Real QLED TVs deliver a viewing experience that’s bright, rich, and sustainable:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>True Quantum Dot Display:</strong> Combines a real quantum dot light-converting film with blue light sources to produce more vivid and accurate colours.</li>
<li><strong>100% Colour Volume<a href="#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4"><span><sup>[4]</sup></span></a>: </strong>Experience consistent, lifelike hues whether you’re watching a sunny cricket match or a moody thriller.</li>
<li><strong>Precision Colour Accuracy:</strong> TÜV Rheinland testing confirms the separation of red, green and blue light sources for pure, balanced colour reproduction.</li>

</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-23788 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/S90F_FRONT_STAND_BeautyShot_39206R3_678585-e1758266656660.jpg" alt="" width="728" height="486" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Ask the Right Questions Before You Buy</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Don’t just go by the label &#8211; make sure your next TV meets Real QLED standards. Ask:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Is it <strong>cadmium-free</strong>?</li>
<li>Does it deliver <strong>100% colour volume</strong>?</li>
<li>Is it <strong>TÜV Rheinland certified</strong> as Real QLED?</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>If the answer is “no,” it’s not a Real QLED.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Your Real QLED Experience Awaits</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung’s 2025 QLED line-up, powered by Vision AI, redefines home entertainment, from family movie nights to live sports and next-gen gaming. Built for the future, it’s more than just a TV; it’s a window into a world of colour, clarity, and intelligent design.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>One of the biggest shopping events, Black Friday, is around the corner, and for many South Africans that means it’s the perfect time to upgrade the home entertainment setup with a new TV. Samsung has the breakthrough technology that defines the Real QLED experience.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>What Is Real QLED?</strong></h3>
<p>Samsung’s Real QLED has earned official certification from the globally respected German testing body TÜV Rheinland. This mark verifies that Samsung QLED TVs comply with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 62595-1-6 standard, which defines the application of quantum dot (QD) light converting unit combined with blue light sources for standard QLED displays.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In simple terms, the Real QLED mark confirms that your TV delivers superior picture quality, powered by genuine Quantum Dot technology. When it comes to visual brilliance, Samsung’s Quantum Dot technology is leading the charge in delivering a picture-perfect viewing experience.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Why It Matters: The Samsung Difference</strong></h3>
<p>Here’s what the Real QLED certification guarantees:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>True Quantum Dot Display</strong>: A real quantum dot light-converting film combined with blue light sources ensures richer, more accurate colours than ungenuine “QLEDs.”</li>
<li><strong>100% Colour Volume*</strong>: Samsung QLED TVs produce a multitude of shades, delivering vivid and consistent colours at any brightness level. Whether you’re watching a summer cricket match in broad daylight or a late-night blockbuster, the picture remains stunningly real.</li>
<li><strong>Colour Accuracy</strong>: TÜV Rheinland testing confirms the separation of red, green, and blue light sources — the foundation of lifelike, vibrant images.</li>
<li><strong>Environmentally Responsible Technology</strong>: Samsung’s Real QLED is cadmium-free** and built with sustainability in mind, aligning with global eco-conscious standards. More than sustainability, it’s also about safety for humans. Cadmium is a hazardous chemical, and that is why it has been removed from the manufacturing process.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-23273 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN90FFF.jpg" alt="" width="8688" height="5792" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN90FFF.jpg 8688w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN90FFF-845x563.jpg 845w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN90FFF-768x512.jpg 768w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/QN90FFF-1024x683.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 8688px) 100vw, 8688px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Ask the Right Questions Before You Buy</strong></h3>
<p>When shopping for a TV this Black Friday, don’t just be swayed by a label. Ask the real questions:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Is it cadmium-free?</li>
<li>Does it deliver 100% colour volume?</li>
<li>Has it earned Real QLED certification or any recognition for environmental responsibility?</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>If the answer is “no,” then it’s not a <strong>Real QLED</strong>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Built for Now, and for the Future</strong></h3>
<p>A Samsung Real QLED TV isn’t just an investment in a screen; it’s an investment in true-to-life colour, unmatched brightness and lasting quality. Whether it’s family movie nights, high-action sports weekends or gaming marathons, Samsung’s QLED TVs deliver the kind of performance that brings every moment to life. The 2025 TV line-up is even better, it features Samsung’s most advanced TV technologies yet – including QLED and OLED panels powered by Vision AI.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This Black Friday, when you see the QLED label, don’t settle for less. Look for the Real QLED mark and enjoy a Real experience.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>*Samsung achieved the Digital Cinema Initiative’s colour standard DCI-P3 and achieved 100% colour volume for the first time in the world — thereby presenting unparalleled colour expression.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>**Samsung’s quantum dot technology has been recognised by global testing organization Société Générale de Surveillance (SGS) for its excellence in cadmium-free design — an environmentally conscious approach that eliminates the use of cadmium, a toxic heavy metal known to pose risks to human health and the environment.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone has creative potential and, colour is able to awaken that capability. These days, technology is not just about features or specifications; it’s also about unlocking experience and evoking powerful emotions.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung’s QLED displays are not just for watching – they are also for inspiration. The incredible QLED Quantum Dot technology now plays a crucial role in enhancing creativity by delivering vibrant, lifelike colours and exceptional picture quality. This kind of modernisation in Samsung QLED technology is not just about flexibility – but also about real innovation at the core.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>QLED&#8217;s Quantum Dot technology produces a wider range of colours than traditional displays &#8211; ensuring that they are displayed accurately and vibrantly. Samsung’s QLED is like a canvas that empowers users to see and express the world in richer, more vivid colour. With this innovative technology, Samsung is now not only providing advancement in display technology, but also offering a more vibrant and realistic viewing experience to creatives around the world.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>What makes Quantum Dots so special are the microscopic molecules that emit precise colours when lit &#8211; resulting in higher brightness, accurate colour reproduction and a wider colour gamut. Samsung’s QLED uses this Quantum Dot technology to deliver 100% colour volume — maintaining richness at any brightness level. This technology allows the TV to produce a consistent, vivid and accurate colour display, be it in very bright or dark conditions.<span> </span>QLED is able to show deeper reds, brighter greens and purer blues. Colour accuracy then essentially means that &#8211; what you see is what the creator intended.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-22755 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Neo-QLED_QN700C-e1700228255463.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="563" srcset="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Neo-QLED_QN700C-e1700228255463.jpg 1000w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Neo-QLED_QN700C-e1700228255463-728x410.jpg 728w, https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Neo-QLED_QN700C-e1700228255463-768x432.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>With this revolutionary technology &#8211; a filmmaker now experiences their work in studio-grade clarity. The picture accuracy and superior contrast of Samsung’s Quantum Dot TVs &#8211; make every film feel cinematic, be it the latest blockbuster or an old classic. In essence, Quantum Dot TVs provide filmmakers with a more realistic and visually engaging experience, making them a valuable tool for enjoying their work and professional use. And, a family watching a documentary is also able to feel immersed in the natural world.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In addition, Samsung Art Mode feature<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1"><span><sup>[1]</sup></span></a> is able to transform your screen into a digital gallery — merging art and technology. You can now showcase your artwork from the Art Store as well as upload your own photos or even choose from a selection of curated art pieces.<span> </span>The Samsung Art Store<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2"><span><sup>[2]</sup></span></a> is a subscription-based service that provides access to a wide variety of digital artwork for display on Samsung TVs, primarily the Frame TV series. It allows users to transform their TV into a digital art gallery, showcasing a diverse collection of paintings, photographs and other art forms.<span> </span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span>In addition, </span>Samsung recently launched the Art TV<a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3"><span><sup>[3]</sup></span></a> of Art Basel in Basel (ABB) Collection, an exclusive curation of digital art available across Samsung TVs with Samsung Art Store. And furthermore, the Ambient Mode<a href="#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4"><span><sup>[4]</sup></span></a> lets you personalise your space with visuals that reflect your taste or mood. This innovative feature allows you to display content on the screen even when the TV is not &#8220;on.&#8221; Also, you can now transform your TV into a customisable art installation or a source of useful information when not being used for regular viewing.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>With the help of QLED&#8217;s Quantum Dot technology – it is clear that Samsung is now empowering creativity and unleashing “The Artist Within”. The company’s QLED TVs have now become more than just a display, they are creative partners. For this reason, Samsung remains committed to using ground-breaking technologies such as QLED&#8217;s Quantum Dot to leverage artistic expression and technological innovation to create a more immersive and engaging viewing experience for consumers.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung’s QLED with Quantum Dot technology are bridging the gap between technology and creativity. This foundation of the real QLED experience that Samsung has pioneered, invites users to see the world more vividly and to create, imagine and feel more deeply. All of this is an indication that Samsung’s QLED displays are not your average TVs – they are the result of years of refinement and mastery in Quantum Dot display technology.</p>

<p>Samsung has been named the <strong><em>2025 MyBroadband TV Brand of the Yea</em></strong><strong>r</strong>, a prestigious accolade that recognises the company’s continued leadership and innovation in the television industry.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Presented annually, the MyBroadband Award for TV Brand of the Year honours brands that consistently deliver outstanding products, cutting-edge technology, and exceptional user experiences to South African consumers. Samsung was chosen based on its strong brand reputation, industry-wide innovation, and deep commitment to the local market.</p>

<p>“We are honoured and proud to be recognised as South Africa’s leading TV brand,” said Mike van Lier, Vice President for Consumer Electronics at Samsung Electronics South Africa. “This award reflects our ongoing investment in breakthrough technologies and our dedication to offering our consumers the very best in home entertainment.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung has long set the standard for what televisions can achieve. The company’s pioneering work in <strong>quantum dot technology</strong> began in 2001 and led to the creation of the world’s first <strong>cadmium-free quantum dot material</strong> in 2014. This innovation laid the foundation for Samsung’s highly acclaimed <strong>SUHD</strong> and <strong>QLED</strong> TV ranges.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>With more than <strong>150 patents</strong> in quantum dot technology, Samsung continues to redefine picture quality and performance with each generation of products. Its current line-up, which includes the <strong>Neo QLED</strong> and <strong>OLED</strong> ranges, showcases the brand’s commitment to delivering superior brightness, colour precision, and refresh rates for all types of viewing needs.</p>

<p>As a leading brand in South Africa, Samsung continues to deliver TVs that resonate with local audiences, whether for sport, cinema, or gaming. A strong commitment to local customer service and support matches the company’s sustained investment in innovation and product excellence.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“At its core, our business is driven by the consumer. This is why we will continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in home entertainment. We are particularly excited about the future, especially after this accolade and being named South Africa’s preferred TV brand,” added van Lier.</p>
