Samsung Neo QLED Smart TVs Price In Malaysia Starts At RM 8,499; Pre-Order Opens Now

Samsung has begun to accept pre-orders for its new Neo QLED 8K and 4K Smart TVs lineup in Malaysia. In case you missed our previous report, the company has recently updated its catalogue to include the new Smart TV series which was announced at CES earlier this year.

Available in four different models, not all screen sizes that we listed earlier is part of the Neo QLED’s first batch of release in Malaysia though:

65-inch QN900A Neo QLED 8K: RM 24,999

75-inch QN800A Neo QLED 8K: RM 24,999

75/65-inch QN90A Neo QLED 4K: RM 19,999 / RM 13,999

85/75/55-inch QN85A Neo QLED 4K: RM 22,99 / RM 16,888 / RM 8,499

With only one variant priced at under RM 10,000, clearly the Neo QLED commands a rather premium price tag. Meanwhile, Samsung Malaysia is offering a free soundbar set to customers that pre-order any of these Neo QLED Smart TVs from today until 28 March 2021.

Depending on the specific model of Neo QLED Smart TVs, pre-order customers would be provided with a range of soundbar starting from the A450 2.1 3-speaker setup up to the premium Q800A 3.2.1 8-speaker system (shown above) that supports Dolby Atmos.

Samsung Unveils Neo QLED Smart TV Line-Up Featuring New Quantum Mini LED Technology

During its First Look event that was live streamed earlier, Samsung has unveiled new technologies and new products to make home entertainment more enjoyable and even eco-friendly. Among these include the introduction of its Neo QLED TV line-up that promises to offer a rich and immersive visual experience.

The new Samsung Neo QLED TVs consist of two flagship models, the 8K QN900A and 4K QN90A. Both of which feature sleek design and form factor, as well as the new Infinity One Design that provides a “nearly bezel-less screen” for a more immersive viewing experience.

According to the company, the TVs feature Quantum Mini LEDs to project crisp images with better contrast and less blooming on screen. Each of these LEDs are 1/40 the height of conventional ones, and are controlled by Quantum Matrix Technology as well as Samsung’s Neo Quantum Processor. The technology is also capable of increasing the luminance scale to 12-but with 4096 steps to enhance HDR experiences, which makes dark areas darker and bright areas brighter.

Samsung added that the onboard processor includes 16 different neural network models, each trained in AI upscaling and deep learning technology. This allows it to optimise picture quality to 4K and 8K output regardless of the original input quality.

Audio-wise, the Neo QLED 8K particularly comes with several premium, room-filling audio features such as Object Tracking Sound (OTS) Pro and SpaceFit Sound. The first allows for dynamic sound output that corresponds to the movement of objects on screen, while the second is capable of analysing the physical environment around the TV and output immersive surround sound accordingly.

Other than that, both of the newly introduced TVs also include a variety of smart features that further enhance the user’s experience. Some of the highlights include the new Super Ultrawide GameView which allows images to be displayed in 21:9 and 32:9 aspect ratios, FreeSync Premium Pro for minimising screen tearing and stuttering, and PC on TV that allows for remote access to the user’s home or office PC directly from their TV screens.

With the aid of an optional USB camera for the TVs, users can track their home workouts via the new Smart Trainer app on Samsung Health, which is capable of counting reps, providing feedback on form, and displaying post-workout results. The new camera accessory can be utilised for video conference calls through Google Duo, and is also capable of tracking and zooming to users in order to maintain focus.

Samsung did not reveal the pricing or availability for the newly introduced Neo QLED TV models at this time. The same can be said for any detailed specifications for either products.
