QD-OLED 2023

Although OLED is great in terms of viewing angles, defeating usual LCDs and QLED displays, QD-OLEDs take that a notch up. Even at off-axis angles, QD-OLED displays offer more accurate colors than OLEDs. Since QD-OLED TVs have higher efficiency in terms of brightness, they are less susceptible to pixel burning.

Early OLED TVs did have trouble with this phenomenon, throwing the technology into question. But these days, nearly all of the OLED TVs on the market today are equipped with preventative measures to curb burn-in, and unless you're a very particular type of television viewer, you needn't worry about it at all.

The first 77-inch QD-OLED TV probably won't appear until 2023 [CES, January 2023, we're looking at you] but if you need something now, check out the best OLED deals live this month – and note that Samsung Display is also rumored to be working on a 49-inch QD-OLED panel, allegedly intended for monitors.

Quantum Dot OLED has really hit the ground running. Both of the first QD-OLED TVs we've seen have shown real progress when it comes to brightness, contrast and, especially, colour range. And they've done so at much more aggressive price points than we might have expected.
