The global certification company awarded Samsung’s QD-Display certifications for Pro Gaming Verified and Eye Care Display.
“QD-Display received high marks for its outstanding image quality and viewing experience for games and high-definition content, while simultaneously reducing eye stress and fatigue,” Samsung Display, Samsung’s offshoot display business, said in a statement.
The latest awards come after the QD-Display was already certified for its True Color Tones, Pure RGB Luminance and Ultrawide Viewing Angle. The display was certified Platinum for its Pro Gaming Verified rating, the highest rating level SGS offers in that category.
For the rating SGS measured the display’s reflectance, refresh rate, viewing angle, Halo (light leakage) and color. Through the certification process, the QD-Display achieved a 0.01 ms response speed (Black to White), and a refresh rate of 175Hz for monitors and 144Hz for TVs.
Samsung said that the fast response speeds and refresh rate were due to the QD-Display unique technology that gives it an advantage over LCD displays.
“Unlike conventional LCD displays, QD-Displays do not have a delay time due to the movement of liquid crystals, since each pixel can be individually adjusted to provide the sharpest image quality possible,” the company said. “Therefore, the QD-Display offers faster screen transitions and clearer picture quality, allowing users to fully immerse themselves in high-resolution games.”
"The need for high-quality monitors has increased substantially as we've spent more working and leisure time at home since the start of the pandemic," Samsung Display added. "We pride ourselves on the fact that QD-Display is the perfect display for consumers looking for the best viewing experience whether they're participating in video calls or enjoying games and high-definition content."
