Sharp will release a total of 7 models of 4K OLED televisions “AQUOS QD-OLED” (GS1 Line) and “AQUOS OLED” (GQ1/GQ2 Line).
The <GS1 line> uses the latest generation “quantum dot organic EL panels.” The blue light of organic EL is converted into 3 high-purity primary colors with a quantum dot layer, and bright, dark, and vivid colors are reproduced. The state and temperature distribution of the organic EL light emitting layer are analyzed in real time, and the amount of light emitted is precisely controlled. The brilliance has been improved by approximately 15% compared to our convention*1. The “GQ1 Line” uses a high-brightness “S-Bright panel” that enables the expression of glossy black and brilliance.
Also, image quality and sound quality are automatically adjusted by an image processing engine (“Medalist S5X” <GQ1 line>, “Medalist S5” <GQ1/GQ2 line>) that employs a next-generation AI processor. Now, we have newly developed an “AI super resolution” function that utilizes AI to enhance the sense of detail, and an “anime net clear” function that smoothly corrects gradation disturbances that tend to occur in anime and internet videos, and creates clean images. In terms of sound quality, AI analyzes audio signals, enhances realism when watching live music or sports, and automatically makes adjustments suitable for the scene, such as making voices clear and easy to hear during in-between lines and explanations.
All models use “ARSS+” (ARSS+) (ARSS+) (AROUND SPEAKER SYSTEM PLUS), which emits sound from speakers above and below the screen forward, as the sound system. The <GS1 Line> is equipped with a “power voice speaker” that reproduces clear and powerful sound, and has achieved a high output of 100W*2. It creates a sense of unity between video and sound, and you can experience a powerful, enveloping sound space.
All models are equipped with Google TVTM. You can access over 400,000 movies, TV shows, etc. from over 10,000 apps, and Google TV organizes and proposes content that matches your preferences from various apps by genre, etc. You can search for movies, play music, etc. with your voice by pressing the Google Assistant button on the remote control.
