Samsung is expected to surpass the 1 million shipment mark for QD-OLED TVs next year. As a result, the company will almost triple shipments in 2023, and market watchers predict that Samsung will continue to increase QD-OLED TV shipments through next year and into 2024.
Samsung shipped around 450,000 QD-OLED TVs this year, and UBI Research analysts cited by The Elec expect the company to increase QD-OLED shipments to 1.3 million next year. According to the source, Samsung Display increased its QD-OLED production yield to 90% in just one year after mass production began.

QD-OLED TVs are gaining more traction
Market watchers believe that Samsung will continue to increase QD-OLED TV shipments in 2024. The company may exceed the 2 million mark after 2023.
Neo QLED and QD-OLED combined, Samsung may reach around 3.8 million shipments in 2023. This implies that QD-OLED will narrow the gap with Neo QLED TVs. Samsung expects to ship around 2.5 million Neo QLED TVs next year.
