I thought the Q stood for quantum dot, which they actually use? (Not that that makes them unique nowadays).

[p1necone]

Yeah but do you really think they didn't choose that acronym, with that upper case Q with no intention to make people think they were OLEDs/similar to OLEDS.

QLED

OLED

[refulgentis]

Yes. Occam's Razor would demand it

[PetahNZ]

So it should be QLCD

[refulgentis]

No, that would be Quantum Liquid Crystal Display instead of Quantum (Dot) Light Emitting Didode

[MobiusHorizons]

Quantum (dot) Liquid Crystal Display is an accurate description of the display technology, unless you think LED backlight is more important than the LCD tech that drives the pixels.

As much as I'd like everyone to be more honest in their marketing, I think it's a bridge too far to blame Samsung for how televisions have been marketed by all manufacturers and retailers alike for nearly two decades.

[refulgentis]

I do. Hence the importance of OLED.
