Samsung showcased its QLED TVs at CES 2017 earlier this year and then launched them in most important markets around the world. However, the company had only launched 55-inch, 65-inch and 75-inch variants of the Q7 and Q8 series of QLED TVs. Now, Samsung has announced that it has launched the 88-inch variant of its QLED TV in North America and Korea. The company claims that the 88-inch Q9 TV offers superb picture quality, and can offer satisfying experience in even the biggest of the homes.
The Q9 was awarded record high scores by Video Magazin, one of the Germany's most renowned consumer electronics magazine. The magazine praised the Q9 to be the best TV for HDR performance, thanks to its record high brightness levels. Apart from great picture quality, the TV offers excellent, sleek design and a transparent ‘Invisible Connection' optical cable. It also features a No Gap wall mount provision to make the TV look flush with the wall, resembling a picture frame when it's not in use.
“At Samsung, we are aiming to expand our footprint in the ultra-premium TV market with our ultra-large QLED TV models that embody the perfect combination of technology and art. With their superior picture quality and innovative features, we are confident that our QLED TV lineup will continue to drive sales and solidify Samsung’s leadership in the global TV market,” said Jongsuk Chu, Senior Vice President of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. The TV Is also available in 65-inch and 75-inch variants.
The 88-inch variant of the Q9 TV from Samsung is priced at a staggering $19,999 in the US, but if you really want to get it for your living room but don't have that kind of money to shell out at once, you can opt for the company's interest-free EMI offers. You can also trade in your old TV to get a discount as high as $200. Consumers who purchase this TV will also be eligible for up to 180,000 Samsung Reward Points and an additional $50 discount on a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player from the company.
