Samsung to launch vertical QLED TV next month to target smartphone content consumers

Samsung will launch a vertical QLED TV next month. The TV can be used vertically and horizontally (in the traditional style) just like a monitor. The TV has a 43-inch display and is priced at $1630 which translates to Rs 1,13,800 approx. directly converted. The TV can connect to mobile phones via NFC. Since content on smartphones is consumed in the vertical form factor, the vertical orientation of the TV is to give consumers a large screen smartphone-like experience.

We decided to introduce this product in the Korean market first, considering the high ratio of smartphone users and consumers' willingness to try innovative tech products. We will follow up the early market reaction to launch it in other markets." Han Jong-hee, head of visual display business at Samsung Electronics, said in a launching event.

The intention of TVs orientation is to give viewers the ability to seamlessly switch between mobile devices and TV. this will let users enjoy smartphone videos, photos and music on bigger screens.
