JOHANNESBURG, South Africa – 07 April 2021 – With every new TV release Samsung cements its place amongst the most pioneering creators of immersive entertainment experiences. Earlier this year Samsung debuted its 2021 Neo 8K QLED TV, a line-up which delivers an entirely new kind of display technology. The new range emphasises and builds on Samsung’s rich engineering and innovation heritage, qualities South Africans have wholeheartedly embraced.
An Unmissable New Offer
The news that many have been waiting for is just in: The 2021 Neo QLED TV will now be released in South Africa with an incredible launch offer. Those who pre-order this must-have TV between 3 May and 31 May 2021 will receive a FREE Samsung Sound Bar Bundle to enhance their NEO QLED experience even further. They will also receive a myriad of comforts, including an in-home installation service by a fully accredited technical team through Samsung Signature Service. The offer is available through participating Samsung stockist and Samsung e-Store.
A TV Designed For A New World
With this new offer many more people will gain an even greater appreciation of what a TV can do. After all, recently, our TV’s have become a central entertainment hub, a fitness partner, a connection to classrooms, a co-worker and a source for 24/7 news – including those much-anticipated ‘family gatherings’.
The NEO QLED TV line-up is made for now. Complementing their vivid picture quality, they feature a premium Infinity One Design and Object Tracking Sound Pro that ensure that the TVs look and sound incredible from every angle. Neo QLEDs also carry Samsung’s award-winning Tizen operating system, which ensure that the smart TV features are seamless and intuitive. Samsung’s TV design has always been geared towards providing users with cinema-like viewing experiences. With NEO QLED you get a truly immersive TV viewing experience with the depth and vividness of real 8K, which has 16x more resolution than full HD.
Additionally, through the Samsung ecosystem this experience has been amplified even more. Samsung Neo QLED automatically recognises your office PC1, letting you conveniently access and work on office files from your home TV. You can connect your smartphone with Samsung DeX2 to enjoy a more expansive, more comfortable view of your workspace. You can even work together with colleagues on Microsoft 365 documents3 — right from your TV. With Google Duo built-in, you don’t have to rely only on emails, texts or other documents to communicate. Instead, with a simple press of a remote, you can instantly video chat4 with the whole team at the same time. Whether you need to connect with an office or a classroom, you’re there, even from the comfort of your living room.
