Samsung has been on a roll lately. Its broad line of 4K QLED TVs, which come in 32, 43-, 49-, 55-, 65-, 75-, 82-, 85- and 98-inch sizes, has help the company garner a 90% marketshare among the CE Pro 100. That represents a 100% growth rate since 2004 when just the company had just 45 of the CE Pro 100 carrying its displays. The Samsung Platinum Dealer Program is also on the rise, with more than 500 integrators now participating.
Meanwhile, the company’s Lifestyle portfolio of products, including The Serif, The Frame, The Terrace outdoor display, and The Sero rotating display, are gaining strong market presence. The company also just unveiled its new The Premiere ultra short throw projector to the market. On the 8K front, the new Samsung 8K Model QN 98-Q 900RBF 98-inch QLED display, with an MSRP of $64,999, is also causing a stir. Integrators displaying the units in their showrooms are reporting brisk sales.
