Samsung’s 2023 QD-OLEDs will apparently offer deeper blacks

Samsung is expected to take its QD-OLED game to the next level in 2023, with a larger model reportedly launching within the next month. This is reported by the Korean news center ETNews (opens in new tab)Samsung will apparently debut its new lineup of QD-OLED models at CES 2023, with a larger screen size and deeper blacks. If or when they launch, the big question is whether it can dethrone LG in the battle for OLED supremacy.

We should expect deeper black levels across the board, which is always a big deal when it comes to OLED panels. These next-gen QD-OLED displays from Samsung will reportedly address the issue of light leakage from lit pixels to unlit pixels, which can sometimes cause blacks to look a bit gray on some OLED displays.

According to Flat panelsHD (opens in new tab) Samsung has also apparently trademarked the phrase “True Black”, which we expect to feature in the marketing materials for these new QD-OLEDs, and could give us a hint as to what to expect from these upcoming displays.

We could also see the largest QD OLED yet, with a 77-inch model alongside the existing 55 and 65-inch models. This could be Samsung’s answer to the LG OLED77C2, especially if it retains the excellent performance of the Samsung QE65S95B.

In terms of features, we can expect the usual suite of other flagship Samsung sets to star here. That includes 4K resolution, HDR support (probably Samsung’s favorite HDR10+ format), HDMI 2.1 for 4K/120 gaming, and the Tizen operating system, complete with streaming and gaming apps.

These new TVs are expected to debut at CES next month and launch in Europe and North America in the first half of 2023. Sony has yet to reveal its plans for QD-OLED models for 2023, although this new larger QD-OLED panel could mean a bigger successor to the XR-55A95K.
