Samsung is the overlord in the display field, with the world's top panel technology, the importance of the panel for the display is self-evident, but Samsung's more powerful is its upstream and downstream vertical integration capabilities, and its semiconductor technology is also the top level in the industry. Samsung controls everything from design to manufacturing, which also determines the stability of its products.
Samsung is the leader of curved screens, which can bring a better sense of immersion, and have been widely used in monitors and TVs in recent years, which have a good effect on watching movies and e-sports, and are also more suitable for widescreens. VA panel is Samsung's main panel technology, light leakage is much less than IPS panel, and most curved screen displays on the market use VA panels. The static contrast ratio of the VA panel is much higher than that of the TN or IPS panels, and in dark use cases, the blacks of the VA panel are deeper, and the level of detail in the shadows is more distinct, which is a plus for both viewing and e-sports. The viewing angle of the VA panel is also significantly ahead of the TN panel, and it is a wide viewing angle panel.
Although the VA panel has a lot of advantages in terms of image quality, the refresh rate and response speed of the VA panel are not as fast as the TN panel. The flagship gaming monitor with TN panel can reach a refresh rate of up to 240Hz and a response speed of 1ms, while the refresh rate of Samsung's VA panel is only 144Hz at the highest and the fastest response speed is only 4ms, which also determines that the VA panel cannot enter the field of high-end gaming displays for the time being.
Display commonly used grayscale response time (GTG) is the standard of response speed,In the VA panel used by many manufacturers,Usually the fastest can only reach4ms,And Samsung claims that its VA panel of gaming display can reach1msResponse speed,But it does not mark the standard used for response speed,After actual measurement by players,Its 1ms response time is obtained by backlight strobe to eliminate dragging,Playing a rubbing ball on the measurement standard,Its grayscale response time (GTG) can still only reach4ms。
In the list of Ranking Treasure flat-panel TVs, it has been mentioned that Samsung's housekeeping skills in the display field:Quantum dot technology(Quantum dot),Referred to as QD。 This is a backlight improvement technology,It can greatly improve the color gamut coverage of the panel,Display models that use quantum dot technology will have a Q letter behind it,Color gamut coverage can easily reach 125%sRGB,"Colorful" is what many people say about Samsung display products.
It is important to point out that high color gamut coverage does not equal a high level of color performance. For professional fields such as printing design, the requirements for color accuracy are very demanding, and the requirements for color gamut coverage are secondary. Professional-grade displays almost all use IPS panels with better color accuracy, and Samsung's VA panel products are not suitable for this field, and Samsung basically no longer launches professional-grade displays, focusing on the civilian market for mass consumption.
Samsung has a large number of display products, and its parameters can be roughly understood by the model, taking C27HG70QQC as an example, the initial letter C represents a curved surface, if it is S, it represents a flat surface, and U represents a product with 4K resolution. The number 27 represents its dimensions, and the letter "H" after the number indicates the year of release, with H being 2017, F being 2016, and E being 2015. The G after the year letter indicates the use of quantum dot technology, which is not available on many models. The following numbers roughly reflect the positioning and style of the product, with the larger the first number, the higher the positioning. In the last three letters, the first represents the resolution, Q is 2K, F is 1080P, U is 4K, and the last two digits distinguish the color and the country to which it is sold.
Although Samsung has a stable control over its production products, Samsung only offers a one-year warranty, while most other brands start with three years. Curved monitors and 4K displays are Samsung's strengths, with exquisite exterior design and vivid color performance, which have good performance in home and business; There are other better options for professional-grade monitors and high-end gaming monitors.
