Samsung had actually wanted to stop the production of LCD displays for its televisions for a long time, but the pandemic has ensured that interest has increased sharply and the factory has continued to operate. But now, after 30 years, it’s over. However, Samsung has not completely dispensed with LCD TVs.
Samsung finally stops LCD production for televisions
Samsung Display started manufacturing LCD screens for televisions more than 30 years ago. Millions of people have bought and grown up with a Samsung TV over the years. But after so many years the plug is finally pulled in LCD TV production. Production just wasn’t profitable anymore. Actually, this should have happened much earlier, but now the time has really come (Source: Korea Herald).
However, like many other TV manufacturers, Samsung will not completely stop selling LCD TVs. The production for the matching screens will be stopped, but man simply buys the screens from Chinese producers. Many other companies do this and Samsung will soon be one of them. Samsung no longer has to bear the costs of its own production facility, but can still offer LCD TVs.
Samsung sees the future in the field of QD OLED televisions. The company takes advantage of the bright QLED technology and combines it with the advantages of OLED technology. Samsung has actually always shot at OLED televisions, but in the end the technology prevailed. Samsung has only optimized it according to its own wishes.
This is how easy it is to watch TV for free on your Samsung device:
Samsung TVs could be cheaper
While it’s a pity that Samsung no longer produces its own LCD screens for its televisions, the company could cut costs by purchasing cheap LCD panels from Chinese manufacturers and such offer their televisions cheaper. Whether that will happen remains to be seen. We will watch the market.
