The South Korean giant, Samsung has worked with the Taiwanese semiconductor giant MediaTek to create the world’s first 8K TV with Wi-Fi 6 support. The new Samsung 8K QLED Y20 models (Q950, Q900) support the new Wi-Fi standard and is equipped with MediaTek’s custom Wi-Fi 6 chipset.
Being an 8K TV, this is the flagship viewing experience by Samsung and this will be the only globally available Wi-Fi 6 connectivity supporting TV. The Samsung 8K QLED Y20 not only offers a better viewing experience but also a better view of multimedia consumption through better connectivity.
Wi-Fi 6 is the latest Wi-Fi connectivity standard that has greater improvements from the previous generation, allowing higher transmission speeds while saving on power. The latest connectivity feature on this high-resolution TV makes 8K streaming experience a lot more seamless.
Samsung is a long-standing strategic partner of MediaTek, and its consistent drive to innovate has allowed MediaTek to continue to bring industry-leading IC solutions, like our Wi-Fi 6 family to market. Samsung is driving growth of the premium smart TV segment and collaborating with them on Wi-Fi 6 and 8K is just the start of a strong global demand for advanced connectivity and Wi-Fi 6 solutions.
