Summary

  • Currently, many features of smart TVs can be improved upon including perfect black levels, higher brightness, and no risk of burn-in from OLED screens
  • As it stands currently, OLED is considered one of the best forms of screen technology due to its contrast ratios and viewing angles
  • However, many think that it would be improved if it had no risk of burn-in and had higher levels of brightness
  • Other features that could be focused on include auto-calibration with environmental integration, which would adjust a TV’s settings throughout the day to create the best picture quality
  • TVs could also benefit from having improved sound quality, meaning that separate speakers or soundbars would not be required
  • Furthermore, modular upgradeable hardware would improve the life of a TV, as at the moment they are not upgraded regularly due to incremental upgrades and limited use
  • Lastly, a “dumb TV mode” could be offered to customers who prefer not to have smart features, meaning that the TV could be used merely as a display
