TV Technology Trends to Look Out for in 2019

8K tv with remote control

2019 has been the year of the TV; the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) introduced us to the latest developments in TV technology, and the following months have shown us the advantages and disadvantages of those developments. In this article, we are discovering which of these new TV trends are here to stay and which still need further development.

Voice Assistants

Amazon’s Alexa and Google Assistant are everywhere now, and television development teams are doing their best to incorporate these cool new assistants into the latest TVs. Enjoy a television experience smoother than ever before when you connect to an Alexa or Google Assistant.

Voice assistants allow you to shape your house in a manner that is personal to you; connecting your devices allows for smoother transitions between your technologies and greater ease of use. From the ease of Smart TVs and apps, voice control is the next step in entertainment, ensuring that you never need to worry about a misplaced remote ever again.

As of now, voice-controlled TVs are still in development. You can already purchase TVs which support volume and channel adjustment with voice assistants, but the future may deliver fully voice-controlled televisions. A study from Juniper Research has posited that there will be a huge increase in voice-assisted televisions by 2023, so perhaps one day we’ll find TVs with fully functioning and integrated voice assistants.

Hello 8K

8K televisions hit the market earlier this year, but we are still waiting for content and streaming to catch up with our newfound ability to display media at greater resolutions than ever before. 8K refers to a horizontal resolution of 7680 pixels and a vertical resolution of 4320 pixels, which is around 16 times the pixels found in a 1080p HDTV. In other words, the image will be so clear that you won’t be able to see the pixels.

However, this super high-definition innovation comes with a high price tag that we hope to see come down as more people invest in this fantastic new level of quality. Until then, keep an eye on our cheap 4K cheap TV deals.

Rollable TV

Technology is evolving every single year, with TVs getting larger, thinner and sharper than ever. Can you imagine being able to roll down your TV at the press of a button, as if it was a poster on the wall to store away when not needed?

LG’s rollable television is functional, precise and beautiful. More than just a TV trend, this television seeks to blend in with interior design trends and looks perfect in any minimal or modern home. The aim of the rollable is to reduce the appearance of waste and excess in the home, so when you want to use your television as a digital clock or radio, you can choose a partial unrolling.

The rollable TV is usurping the trend of using wall-mounted TV brackets to maximise floor space. Extendable TV brackets are incredibly useful for easily adjusting the viewing angles for your average television, but with 4K spreading and the introduction of 8K, worrying about viewing angles will soon be a thing of the past. In place of your wall-mounted brackets, the rollable TV is easy to install and extremely efficient with space.

The Latest In-Home Cinema

If you agree that bigger is better, then you’ll love The Wall; one of Samsung’s latest developments that puts all other big TVs to shame. With a screen of over 24 feet when measured diagonally, the wall is the first step towards enjoying cinematic-style experiences from the comfort of your own home.

Not only Is it huge, but it also utilises revolutionary screen technology; modular LED panels will allow for you to have greater control over the size and shape of your screen, as well as making repairs easier when you need only remove and replace the damaged section. The days of replacing an entire television because of a small scratch will be over.

Curved Screens

The rollable TV takes curved screen technology to a whole new level, but for those who don’t have the budget for LG’s rollable, you can still engage in the trend by opting for a static curved screen. Curved screens offer greater viewing angles, helping viewers to enjoy a more immersive experience.

Curved screens have been around for a while, but they’re still trending in 2019, so you might want to consider upgrading your current screen for one of these.
