We're all for cheaper Samsung OLED TVs, but if they don't have as good HDR as nearly identical screens from LG and Sony, would you buy one?
The report says that Samsung is in negotiations with LG Display to buy an order of its OLED TV panels. It wouldn't make any sense for Samsung to want the most expensive OLED panels, since that would just compete with with QD-OLED models – so the goal must be that Samsung wants to release cheaper OLED TVs, and it knows that QD-OLED's prices won't drop fast enough.
But also, we know that interest in OLED TVs is at an all-time high, and it might be that Samsung has decided that it just needs to be in the game properly.
