Samsung launches 10-year warranty for Quantum dot TVs

"Quantum dot" screen technology will be a new TV tech term for many people but an eye-catching 10-year warranty from Samsung may help change that.

The technology works by adding a layer of nano crystals in front of an LED screen's backlight in an effort to improve the colours and brightness - and it looks like Samsung is focusing on Quantum dot technology over OLED for its 2016 TVs.
