The best TV news in CES 2023: Wireless and Microled

Technology: a completely wireless TV, ultra-fast screens, here is, among other things, what manufacturers have announced to these this year. Retail review.

By Maria Diaz | Thursday January 12, 2023

Each year, these impresses technology enthusiasts with flying cars. Although all this is fascinating to see and be the subject of headlines, it is the concrete innovations that we use every day that interest me most. And the most innovative televisions enter this category.

Brands known like LG and Roku made huge announcements during these 2023, but there are also emerging brands that make their way, like Displace with his TV wirelessly.

Displacetv

A 55 -inch 4K resolution TV, truly wireless, which sticks directly to walls and windows, without it being necessary to fix or pierce them ? It’s the Displacetv.

Displace has created a 55 -inch TV powered by battery which weighs less than 10 kg and operates up to a month in a single load. The company claims that it can be easily moved from one room to another, thanks to an exclusive active vacuum technology that makes it adhere to the walls or windows.

The TV has vocal, touching and gestural control, and does not have a physical remote control. The idea is to make the viewing experience more intuitive. According to Displace, up to 16 of these televisions can fit together to create large screens.

Each Displacetv will cost $ 2,999 when it was released next December and can be booked now for 299 dollars.

TV OLED LG 93 inch wireless M3

Wireless technology is found on many new features highlighted in these 2023. And LG also presented an Oled Zero Connect TV, winner of an innovation prize in CES 2023.

Although it cannot stick to the wall like the Displacetv, this 97 -inch colossal television offers a 4K resolution up to 120 Hz. It comes with a separate Zero Connect case which can be placed anywhere near the TV, and LG claims that its owner algorithm will identify the optimal transmission path.

The Zero Connect case indicates to the TV what it must do and read, and to make it a truly wireless TV, all the cables are connected to the case and not to the TV.

The price and the release date have not been announced.

LG has also announced new models of televisions OLED C, G and Z at CES 2023.

Roku TV

Roku TV, a very present SVOD service across the Atlantic, is embarking on the manufacture of connected televisions from spring 2023.

The video streaming company previously associated with companies like Hisense and TCL to build smart televisions with the Roku operating system. The new televisions of the company will be divided into two categories, Roku Select and more series, and their size will vary from 24 to 75 inches.

All televisions will include Roku Voice remote controls and more series will develop voice control and other offers.

Samsung Microled 8K in smaller format

Samsung has also made great announcements to CES, revealing new Microled televisions of 50, 63, 76, 89, 101 and 140 inches, although no details on prices are yet available.

The company’s microled televisions are probably the fastest screens available on the market. Samsung prides himself in the response time of 2 nanoseconds, or 2 billionths of a second.

“The microled uses micro-height LEDs to express individual pixels and does not use backlight or colored filter,” said ZDNET CHO MU-HYUN journalist.

What produce better contrast and better colors than traditional market televisions.

Microled screens are sadly famous to be oversized, generally more than 100 inches, it is therefore possible that for the smallest announced prices are reduced.

Uled Hisense TV

Hisense has also announced new technology for its television ranges: mini LEDs are at the center of the company’s new features.

The new technology in the screens is more obvious in the 85 -inch Uled X intelligent television, which will offer a 16 -bit light control for more precise gradation adjustments, as well as a cutting -edge brightness of 2,500 nits through 5,000 local gradation zones.

The other Hisense models equipped with mini LEDs are the U6L, U7K and U8K models, the latter two being equipped with Wi-Fi 6th.

Some other points to remember

A company that has remained very silent on the subject of televisions is Sony. The company surprised many people by not announcing any television during the 2023. Instead, she made a few announcements regarding cameras and games, including the Afeela EV concept.

Although most of the new televisions presented above do not have a release date or information on prices, trends are fairly clear. I think that we can say without risk of being mistaken that large manufacturers will increasingly adopt wireless technology and that, in the near future, the Zero Connect housing from LG and the television will be sold separately, which will allow to upgrade either instead of buying a new television.

And the interchangeable and rechargeable batteries, in particular those which are as easy to change as those of the Displacetv, make the versatility of a “take -out” TV “an interesting concept. Potentially, you could take your trip to travel or even camping.

If the television remains the first equipment of French households, digital has turned upside the way of consuming.
