Samsung unveiled its 2018 QLED TV lineup earlier this month in New York. With the initial pricing not released, many of us have been patiently waiting on the South Korean tech giants to know the cost of having the company’s latest TV technology.

Samsung has just released the pricing for most of the TV sets on its website. Only the price for Q9SN series is still not released. We are suspecting that the unit would be sold sometime later this year. Based on the released initial pricing for the QLED TV lineups, we can say that Samsung is more competitive on price this year, compared with the prices of its 2017 QLED TV set.

Also, Samsung looks more consistent and a step forward this year with its 8K resolution model that offers micro-dimming. Also, we can see the way the company has enabled direct LED lighting and local dimming in some of its new 4k sets. The 2018 OLED TVs from Samsung have impressive features such as the ambient mode which allows the TVs to blend into the room’s wall, instead of showing a black screen. They all have built-in Samsung’s smart assistant, Bixby. And the HDR10+ features are only available in some models.
