Smart TVs with special features for gamers
As one of the first presenters in the previous framework of the Consumer Electronic Show 2021 (CES), which was taking place in the city of Las Vegas, Nevada in the US and which will now be developed digitally, the South Korean company Samsung presented its new line of Smart TV’s Neo QLED.
What is Neo QLED?
A technology that made LEDs 40 times smaller, this will translate into better lighting areas, colors and therefore contrast. The company emphasized that this patent promises to last at least 100,000 hours since they are inorganic. This technology will also allow for thinner and lighter panels.
Like its Sony counterpart, it will integrate artificial intelligence to resize and enhance lower resolution images to fit the panel, even compensating for the bandwidth drop that may exist in streaming services.
All this will be possible thanks to the Neo Quantum processor that, in turn, will allow you to monitor, for example, how many frames per second your favorite video game is running through functions such as the Game Bar.
Game Bar a function dedicated to gamers
This patent through the software and the chip will integrate functions that will allow us to adapt the image in such a way that we can focus better in first person shooter games. We can also change different aspect ratios of 16: 9, 21: 9 or 32: 9 only in PC games with titles compatible with ultra-wide monitors, repositioning the image to have a different perspective, however, they will include Free Sync Premium Pro and VRR to reduce the latency time between the computer and the screen, as does the LG BX OLED Smart TV that we analyzed in 2020.
SpaceFit Sound
This linear will add a technology that calibrates the audio using a microphone and depending on the acoustics, reconfigures the sound, this in turn works with Alexa and Google Assistant.
However, some productivity-focused features are making a comeback as
- Samsung Trainer with artificial intelligence to better monitor your movements
- Video calling with Google Duo (compatible with USB webcams from various brands)
- And Samsung DeX
Samsung also took the opportunity to present:
The Fame 2021
A kind of Smart TV in the form of a canvas with frames to adjust them to the home decoration.
The Premiere
An ultra short throw laser 4K HDR10 + projector with 4.2ch audio
The Terrace 2021
Smart TV for outdoors with an increase in resistance to rain, dust and high temperatures with IP55 certification.
The Sero
An optimized experience for vertical content creators with a screen that is capable of rotating just as we do it with our smartphone that we are projecting.
The Serif 2021
A design that emulates a very avant-garde gallery painting.
Accessibility for users with different abilities
One of the surprises of this presentation is that the South Korean brand paid particular attention to people with visual weakness or color blindness with options that allow to adjust the image for this type of user, either by inverting the colors or enhancing them with greater contrast. It will also have a voice guide to listen to the commands or functions of the buttons on the remote control, the latter will be available in several languages.
They will also include sign language leaning on the webcam so that users can dictate commands in this way to the screen.
This linear will be available at the end of the first quarter of this 2021.
