Maybe a Quantum Dot OLED in 2022? That would be interesting!

Only what I have read from Korean news medias and some US and EU coverage. Looking forward to what Samsung will be adding to the OLED TV category. Samsung does have very good anti glare filter technology.

This is a big year for OLED display technology with brighter OLED modules and significant upgrades on video processors and even enhanced built-in audio and Samsung is welcome brand to further enhance this category and increase the competition that can only benefit the consumers.

Early reports indicate the peak luminance was not high enough for QD OLED.

How much brighter are OLEDs going to get? I just read the RTINGS A90J review a few days ago and they had it at 800-850nits on 2% and 10%. I'd love to see that doubled or even quadrupled.

Well I'm deep in the rabbit hole now! lol! I just read that there's a prototype coming out in June apparently. We'll see where that takes us. :T

After professional calibration we measured slightly higher peak luminance on our 55" and 65" Q90J Master Series OLED TVs. Pre-calibration and in the Vivid mode the Q90J hit 1340 Nits with a 10% window.

Sony's methodology on driving the peak luminance is different than how LG's OLED TVs operate. Sony preserves it's power and peak luminance capability for the HDR specular highlights, which are typically 1% or even less area of the screen. So although they don't measure very high peak luminance at 10% window size or even 2% when you view 4K HDR content the images look brighter than other OLED TVs.
