Television in 2025

Image
The only technical deficiencies in current TV technology are in brightness (OLED) and viewing angle (QLED) . Micro LED is being touted as the technology behind 8K but the panels will be so expensive and, for most people, so marginal in resolution improvements, that I wobder if they will also be marketed at 4K, 3D without glasses is probably a longer-term proposition. Lenticular screens dont really cut it so a new technology must be developed. The final area that needs a good look is TV audio. Sound bars are OK but are not really convincing for surround use. I suspect that wi-fi enabled active surround speakers will start to appear. They need AC power but thats usually easier to arrange than unpowered wired units.
