US EditionSamsung’s QD-OLED Penta Tandem Upgrade Means Brighter Screens and Longer Life
Samsung Display's new five-layer blue-emitting stack boosts luminous efficiency by 1.3x and doubles lifespan for premium monitors and TVs, enhancing HDR and durability.
- Samsung Display introduced Penta Tandem, a five-layer QD-OLED upgrade it calls a panel-generation marker to boost brightness and longevity without raising power draw.
- By moving the blue emitting layer from four to five, Samsung Display says it spreads energy better to tackle luminance challenges on smaller high-resolution small screens and this approach has been used in top-tier self-emissive TV lineups since last year.
- Samsung Display cites up to 4,500 nits for TVs and 1,300 nits for monitors, says the five-layer stack improves luminous efficiency 1.3x and doubles lifespan.
- This year Samsung Display says panels with Penta Tandem can meet VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 requirements, including 27-inch and 31.5-inch models.
- Given the standards angle, buyers should dig into HDR measurements beyond tiny 3% OPR windows since larger bright scenes may expose heat and power limits.
