Samsung to lower the price of its microLED TVs, but these are still highly expensive

According to The Elec, Samsung will reduce the price of its latest microLED TVs by 40% compared to its older models, compared to the price of its 110-inch TV launched in 2021.

The 2021 110-inch TV was priced at around $140,000. The new 89" model will cost $80,000 while a 114-inch model, which will launch later in 2022, will cost $100,000. The price of Samsung's 2022 101-inch microLED TV hasn't been decided yet.

While it is great to see prices reduced like that, these are still highly expensive TVs, out of range for almost all consumers.

Samsung's new TVs, 89-, 101- and 114-inch TVs will all adopt LTPS TFTs (unlike its previous generation ones which were PCB-based).
