Combines unprecedented brightness and colour to take HDR pictures to places they've never gone before, pictures are uniquely watchable in bright living rooms
It's very expensive, backlighting system can cause a few issues with some HDR content

Improved Quantum Dot structure, 1,500 to 2,000, nit brightness, Mounting it is a cinch
Relatively confusing name, Questionable UHDA certification, Still requires studs in the wall
Samsung's Q9 QLED TV is a seriously bright contender for the best TV at CES 2017. While it has a few flaws (including a confusing name and questionable UHD Alliance certification status), the Q9 displays 100% of the DCI-P3 color space at twice the brightn...
