Samsung Singapore launches 2016 line-up of SUHD TVs in Singapore at the Red Dot Museum.
Three key highlights for the new SUHD TV line-up for 2016 below.
Quantum dot display: Unbeatable Picture Quality – Samsung boasts that the TVs feature the world’s only cadmium-free 10 bit Quantum dot display with 1,000-nit high dynamic range (HDR) promising vibrant colour and contrast.
360-degree design – handsome from every angle. From the front, and from the rear.
360 design for Unparalleled Immersion – With no bezel that functions as the frame of the TV, the viewer’s attention is focused purely on the content of the virtually edgeless screen. All exposed screws from the rear of the TV are removed to create an elegant device that is beautiful from every angle.

The three dimensional, immersive sound technology will debut at Golden Village Suntec City with the premiere of Jack Neo’s latest Chinese New Year comedy/ drama, “Long, Long Time Ago” on Thursday, 4 February.
Auro Technologies is a spin-off of the privately owned Galaxy Studios Group, renowned worldwide for its state-of-the-art leadership in audio innovation for music and sound for film.
Auro 11.1 by Barco. Auro 11.1 brings sound from all around and above to create a more impactful experience.
“Long, Long Time Ago” was natively mixed in the new immersive technology at Galaxy Studios Belgium.
We had the chance to experience the Auro 11.1 setup at the Golden Village cinema at Suntec City. It’s the first and only cinema in Singapore to have installed the system.
Auro 11.1 is touted as the most realistic 3D sound experience currently available in the market.
Unlike other technologies where speakers are placed only on a horizontal plane and directly above, the Auro 11.1 by Barco’s system uses a sound reproduction speaker layout based on three axes (x=width, y=depth, z=height) and three vertical layers (surround, height, top).
