Samsung Unveils modular 146 inch TV called The Wall

As the world’s first consumer modular MicroLED television, ‘The Wall’ represents a breakthrough in inspired design and leading-edge innovation with the flexibility to transform into any size, while delivering impressive, brightness, colour gamut, colour volume and black levels.

The MicroLED technology featured in The Wall eliminates the need for colour filters or backlight, yet allows the screen to offer consumers the ultimate viewing experience. Also, the MicroLED screen excels in durability and effectiveness, including luminous efficiency and power consumption, setting the standard for future screen technology.

Featuring a module-based, bezel-less design, “The Wall” also exemplifies how consumers can customize their television size and shape to suit their needs. The screen can adapt to serve different purposes, such as creating a wall-size display for multiple spaces.

Samsung also featured the world’s first QLED TV featuring 8K AI technology, which will be launched internationally, including in Canada. It will launch starting with Korea and the US during the second half of 2018. This AI technology upscales standard definition content to 8K resolution. It employs a proprietary algorithm to adjust screen resolution based on picture quality characteristics of each scene, to continuously improve picture quality and easily transform any type of content from any source into a high-resolution 8K.

This 8K solution maximizes the viewing experience through several new features. These include detail enhancement – to upgrade standard definition content; noise reduction; edge restoration function – which more clearly outlines – on-screen objects; and automatic sound adjustment for different content, such as sports events or music concerts.
