Samsung Electronics Outdoor TV The Terrace Obtains Outdoor Visibility and Image Quality Certification

[Asia Economy Reporter Suyeon Woo] Samsung Electronics announced on the 16th that its outdoor TV, The Terrace, has become the first in the industry to obtain the outdoor visibility and picture quality certification from the US UL (Underwriters Laboratories).

Founded in 1894, UL is a global safety certification organization headquartered in Illinois, USA, with offices in 46 countries worldwide. The outdoor visibility and picture quality certification requires achieving brightness of 3000 to 4000 nits or higher, a contrast ratio of over 1000:1, and color volume above 80% under outdoor conditions of 10,000 lux or more. Through this certification, The Terrace has verified its excellent performance in outdoor environments.

The Terrace not only delivers a bright screen for comfortable viewing outdoors even at midday but also features ▲QLED display ▲anti-reflection technology that reduces glare caused by light reflecting on the screen ▲AI picture quality optimization that automatically adjusts the optimal screen brightness according to external illumination, enhancing visibility performance.

In addition to The Terrace, Samsung Electronics’ commercial outdoor signage product for outdoor use (OH55A) has also obtained the outdoor visibility and picture quality certification.

Samsung Electronics’ outdoor display products, including The Terrace, have received ratings such as IP55 and IP56 defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), considering the importance of dust and water resistance in outdoor environments exposed to rain and dust.

Choi Yong-hoon, Vice President of Samsung Electronics’ Visual Display Business Division, said, "The Terrace is a product designed to enhance usability in outdoor environments, and this certification proves its performance. As a leader in the TV industry, we will continue to quickly apply the latest technologies to our products to meet changing user lifestyles and ensure customers enjoy various benefits."
