Samsung teases with new HDR UHDTVs
HDR is the next big thing in for Ultra HD TVs, the problem however is the number in nits of brightness clarity it can produce. A proper good (U)HDTV these days is in the 300 to 500 Nits range (a Nit is also Candela = the light of one candle). Samsung's new TVs will be able to do a 1000 nits.
Samsung is also releasing a HDR compatible Ultra HD Blu-ray Player.
Samsung to offer curved SUHD TVs with Quantum dot displays.
Samsung unveiled its spectacular new line-up of SUHD TVs that feature unparalleled picture quality with Quantum dot display, the world’s first bezel-less curved design which is beautiful from every angle and the smart user experience that makes it easy for consumers to access all their entertainment and content in one place. Samsung’s 2016 SUHD TVs feature the world’s only cadmium-free, 10-bit Quantum dot display, offering the most true-to-life picture quality, with stunning brightness, exceptional contrast and the most lifelike colors ever offered by Samsung. Keeping in mind that most viewers watch TV in a lighted room, Samsung designed its new SUHD TVs to deliver the optimum viewing experience, regardless of lighting environment. This new range of Samsung SUHD TVs will provide a premium high dynamic range (HDR) experience, with 1,000 nit HDR minimum for a higher level of contrast between light and dark images. New Ultra Black technology also significantly reduces light reflection, further enhancing picture quality with minimal glare.
Built on the Tizen operating system (OS), Samsung’s 2016 Smart TVs make it easier for consumers to discover and access all their favorite content and services, from TV and movies to games and program information, all in one place with the New Smart Hub, Smart Control remote and Smart View mobile application.The company also unveiled its first Ultra HD Blu-ray Player, the UBD-K8500, which is HDR compatible and offers four times the resolution and 64 times detailed color expression of a conventional Blu-ray player.

Me neither! ALL the tech we have atm is really bad for black levels so your dark scenes in games look dreadful. Also colours look bad and washed out compared to CRT.

So finally Samsung supports what Sony does for a year now...
But the fact that quantum dot isnt really a good thing for the environment, and tech that other brands dont need to produce same/better picture, is another reason i dont like samsung products (beside HDD and kitchen appliances ;-)...
Really?..so your too stupid to try a Google search..because if you did it would take all of 10 seconds to find out samsung had quantum dot tech...higher rated than songs picture quality too...since last year

See the alternative is to say "no it isnt, here's what it is..." and maybe provide a link
The description sure sounds similar to dynamic contrast
Ah, its included in the media apparently
Perhaps his mistake was assuming you had two spare brains cells to rub together..Hence you could have easily Googled the answer yourself..Normally I wouldn't have to teach an adult how to tie their shoes but suffice it to say there is a drastic difference between HDR and dynamic contrast...HDR is the single biggest image quality enhancement tech to come out in over a decade..it literally changes the viewing experience

I'm guessing that Samsung has to try to fight back with whatever it's got, taking into consideration that LG has very superior OLED TVs out and will start selling even better ones soon at a lower price than before.
Can't wait to see OLED TVs continue getting cheaper
