Samsung's 2021 TV lineup surprises with QLED NEO, more Micro-LED TVs CES 2021 is almost here — well, virtually, anyway — but Samsung has jumped the gun a bit and announced its premium 2021 TV lineup. Let's break down everything Samsung has announced for TVs this coming year.   We'll go big right off the bat. You may have already heard that Samsung unveiled a 110-inch version of its Micro-LED TV. But what Samsung has just announced is that it is also bringing a 99- and 88-inch version of its microLED TV into homes this year.   You'll still need a friend or two to get one installed, but this groundbreaking tech with its intense brightness, perfect blacks, and all the bells and whistles you expect from Samsung is coming to homes this year. Frankly, these TVs will be costly, but that's how this tech goes: It comes out high and the price comes down over time. So what we're witnessing here may be the beginning of something great in the world of the best TVs. And that's only the tip of the iceberg from Samsung. Just wait until you see what they're doing with QLED displays. READ MORE Advertisement Besieged by AMD and ambushed by ARM, Intel needs a CES win It's tough being the top dog.
