Quantum Matrix Technology
Samsung’s Neo QLED range uses Quantum Mini LEDs – lights that are approximately the size of a grain of sand. They are precisely controlled to create deep blacks, boosted brightness levels, and intense detail and contrast in every aspect of the picture.

Neural Quantum Processor 4K
Think of the processor as the brain of the TV, and this is our most intelligent 4K processor yet. Using AI and 20 neural networks, it optimises the sound and picture to unleash the full power of 4K. Learning scene-by-scene, it automatically optimises the brightness, amplifies the contrast, enhances objects, clarifies voices over background noise and upscales the resolution to incredible 4K picture quality.

Ultra Viewing Angle with Anti-Reflection Screen
No need to worry about having to close the curtains for a mid-day movie marathon. Samsung's critically acclaimed Anti-Reflection technology absorbs reflections to reduce glare, so you're not distracted from the action on screen.

Dolby Atmos®
Dolby Atmos technology delivers a sound experience that you can feel all around you. It works with the TVs 8 built-in speakers to create an incredibly immersive and realistic impression of sound. When a helicopter flies overhead in your favourite blockbuster, it feels like it is actually flying over you.

Powered by Quantum Dot
See everything you watch come to life with greater detail and realism. Samsung's Quantum Dot-powered TVs transform light into lifelike and accurate colour – validated by Pantone. The result? A naturally bright and colourful picture in over a billion cinematic colours.

Neo Quantum HDR+
From gloomy shadows to sun-scorched scenes – see the previously hidden detail in every scene, exactly as you’re meant to. Thanks to remarkable HDR brightness, watch in true-to-life quality with rich colour and remarkable contrast.

EyeComfort Mode
The EyeComfort Mode feature re-adjusts TV brightness settings depending on the time of day, so it's always easy on the eyes.
