The initial yield rate when mass production started earlier in Fall of last year was 50% and they rapidly improved the yield rate to 85% which is much faster than LG which took them several years for their WOLED tvs. Not to mention the fact that Samsung Display only has one gen 8.5 line producing 30,000 substrates a month compared to LG display with 90k substrates a month. OLED tvs will get cheaper due to economies of scale, so we can see the price of QDOLED go even lower than the price of current WOLED if production capacity is increased.

We will most likely see Samsung Display announce by Q4 of this year or Q1 next year that they'll expand capacity to produce 60,000 substrates per month given that that they sold off their last lcd fab and need to transition to another display technology as soon as possible.

In the long run, if Samsung finishes their research for QNED and irons out all the kinks to enable mass production, we will see an even better display technology. The eventual evolution of qdoled is to replace the oled backlight with leds and it would be a qd-microled/nanoled display which is what QNED is. The equipment for QNED/QDOLED is similar except the expensive deposition machines for OLED are not necessary for QNED so the conversion of qdoled to qned wouldn't be difficult and QNED's launch price should theoretically be cheaper than qdoled. Of course this is likely a couple of years away from now happening the earliest by 2025 or 2026.

They didn't so much nerf the brightness as they improved accuracy. If all you care about is brightness and not picture quality, then buy an LED instead of OLED and set it to Vivid mode.

I can't think of anything less in the spirit of what this forum is all about than this comment.
I'd wager that all of us have the money for most of these things at their retail price, but we are here for the deals. We all know that a dollar saved feels better than a dollar earned. And so with that in mind, your comment makes little sense.

Hold tight, BF is around the corner., I got this tv on last 1650 sale. could have waited to see what blackfriday has to offer. It has brighter and more colors than my Lg C1 for sure, but nothing to far out of a difference. It was also extremely scary to pick up for how thin it is and reading stories that people had bent theirs didn't help my anxiety. Ive never had any glitching that people that dont own it clam that it has. It really shines the most is when you play Series x/ ps5 games and watch movies that utilize the HDR feature.

This is just a new thread from the $1650 deal. They made a sale for Labor day. I was holding the 1650 link sent by rep untill it expired. Then I tried again before Labor day, when I see the new price. I chat with rep for free wall Mount then pulled the trigger. Try edu/gov emails if u could. Might be different prices.

Does anyone know of a way to get an edu email without actually being enrolled in a college? Or a way of getting this deal without currently being in scbool? I've wanted to take advantage of several of these Samsung edu deals but I've been out of school for quite some time. I miss when you could get the edu discount simply by clicking on the edu discount page on their website.
If you have a work email sign up with that I just bought the 55" for 1359 before taxes

on paper its better its the next gen tech but its 1st Gen which will likely have bugs. I dont like it due issues with bent panels and just general problems. C2 is more evolved if price being same I would take C2.
