The Next Big Thing in TVs: Micro RGB Takes the Spotlight
The Promise of Micro-LED
In the world of TVs, Micro-LED has been the talk of the town. People were excited about the idea of thinner, brighter screens. But, there was a catch: the price. Micro-LED TVs were expensive. Even when cheaper options came out, they were still too pricey for many.
The Common Ground: Micro-LED and OLED
Micro-LED and OLED displays share a common trait. They both use tiny LEDs for each pixel. This makes the picture sharper and more vibrant. It also saves power because there's no need for a backlight, unlike in LCD TVs.
The Challenge of Micro-LED
However, making Micro-LED displays is tricky and time-consuming. This is why even big companies like Apple are not using Micro-LED in their products.
Enter Micro RGB Displays
Now, there's a new kid on the block: Micro RGB displays. These are expected to be the next big thing in TVs. They offer:
- Even brighter colors
- Greater control over the picture
Industry Standard for Color Accuracy
Micro RGB displays are designed to meet the industry standard for color accuracy. The first Micro RGB TV, made by Samsung last year, hit this standard perfectly. This is a big deal because previous tech, like quantum dot displays, could only reach about 85% accuracy.
The Technology Behind Micro RGB
Micro RGB displays use individual red, green, and blue backlights. This means they don't need a filter, unlike quantum dot tech.
The Future of Micro RGB
More companies are now making Micro RGB displays. They are expected to replace Micro-LED as the high-end option in TVs. But, they won't be cheap. Samsung's first model cost nearly $30,000 for a 115-inch screen. However, new models coming out this year are expected to be more affordable and offer smaller sizes.
