We are excited for consumers to experience our new TV lineup and features that offer more freedom to decide where and how the TV can be best enjoyed within the home.”

President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics, Jonghee Han, commenting on their new QLED TV 2018 Television Lineup

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. on March 7, 2017 unveiled its 2018 television lineup at the company’s First Look New York event at the American Stock Exchange.

At the event, Samsung highlighted details surrounding its flagship QLED TV models, as well as its expanded lineup of UHD, Premium UHD and Ultra-Large Screen TVs. The company also debuted many exciting new features that enable incredible picture quality, smart capabilities and unique design elements that allow the TV to effortlessly complement the home’s décor.

New to Samsung’s 2018 QLED TV lineup are several features that are designed to meet consumers’ needs for better picture quality, convenience, connection and sharing. These include Direct Full Array, new smart functionality featuring Bixby and the redesigned One Invisible Connection.

Further differentiating Samsung’s unique TV design, the new lineup also features Ambient Mode, a futuristic solution that allows the TV to blend into the home environment like never before.

Additionally, Samsung is reinforcing its commitment to ultra-large screen televisions by introducing several models across its lineup in sizes that are 75-inches and above. This is in direct response to rising consumer demands in 2017, during which 40 percent of Samsung TV sales/revenue in North America were from 65″ or larger sets, with that percentage expected to exceed 50 this year.

So without further delay, here are the highlights of the 2018 lineup.

To complement the seamless look of the new TV lineup, Ambient Mode has been introduced to offer added value even when consumers are not watching TV. With a multitude of information available on the screen, including traffic, weather and news, Ambient Mode extends the television’s use to that of an information hub within the home.

Ambient Mode also detects the color or pattern of the wall on which the TV is mounted, and can match it with the interior décor to produce an elegant, seemingly transparent screen – no longer will consumers just see a plain, black screen when they are not watching TV.

Ambient Mode also detects when a person is in the room by syncing with a mobile signal to activate content on the screen, and turns off when people leave the room.

With several features designed to make the daily lives of consumers easier, Samsung’s 2018 QLED TV lineup delivers value beyond what TVs were once capable of. With its new One Invisible Connection, there will now be only one singular cord that stands between the TV, external devices and your power connection, transmitting both data and power for a seamless look.

This marks the first singular cable in the TV industry that can transmit AV high capacity data at the speed of light while also transmitting power. The cable is designed using Teflon, which is resistant to high heat and known across industries for its durability.

It is also equipped with an insulation system that breaks the electrical current if the cable is cut off, all of which are meant to provide peace of mind for consumers while improving longevity of the product.

The new TVs also offer a more intuitive Universal Guide, providing an array of options to navigate and consume content on QLED TVs.

To further ensure easier use, 2018 QLED TVs will feature Bixby, Samsung’s intelligence platform that first launched on its mobile devices. The TV will understand spoken natural language and quickly search for content, and with deep-learning technology, they will continue to learn over time.

Through the new SmartThings app, consumers can sync their Galaxy phone to their TV for easier setup and access to functions including program guides, remote control and video sharing between screens.
