Subscribe to our newsletter Samsung Display applied for screen certifications that seem to include the first 83-inch QD-OLED panel New 24-inch monitor-size panel is also references No official word on a launch or plans for when they'll appear There's big
news in the world of QD-OLED TV : the first 83-inch QD- OLED panel has appeared in certification listings, which suggests that a launch is on the cards.
As FlatpanelsHD reports, the UL Solutions certification database details multiple Samsung Display QD-OLED panels that have been submitted for the organization's QuantumView verification. And one of those panels is labelled QDOLED83.x, where the number refers to the panel size in inches. The full
list starts at 24 inches and runs through 27 inches, 31 inches, 34 inches, 49 inches, 55 inches, 65 inches, 77 inches and 83 inches. Until now, QD-OLED panels have topped out at 77 inches.

The sizes under 55 inches are for monitors rather than TVs, and offer a much-anticipated secret of their own: they appear to confirm rumors of a 24-inch version coming. Samsung Display's QuantumView certification appears
to include an 83-inch QD-OLED panel (Image credit: Samsung Display) When is the 83-inch QD-OLED TV launching? The short answer: we don't know. The slightly longer answer: Samsung hasn't announced its existence, let alone product plans, pricing or launch dates but we can make a very well-educated guess
We've had rumors of this 83-inch panel before , and they've proved to be unfounded: the discovery of what was thought to be an 83-inch QD-OLED in Samsung's parts database in late 2024 turned out to be the Samsung S95F , which came in an 83-inch size, but uses a WOLED panel from LG Display for
that size, and stuck with QD-OLED for the smaller sizes.
This leak looks much stronger, because it comes from Samsung Display (the
part of the company that makes the panels, not the part that makes TVs) directly.

The company uses UL Solutions' QuantumView certification as a marketing angle
so for example last week Samsung's press office was delighted to tell us
that Samsung Display's entire QD-OLED line-up has achieved that
certification. That press release didn't detail the screen sizes, however.
So far Samsung hasn't listed an 83-inch QD-OLED in its 2026 line-up, and neither has Sony , which also uses Samsung Display panels. But it would be rather strange to get certification for a screen size you don't intend to sell.
So while an announcement doesn't appear to be imminent, I'd expect to see
this large model become an option in 2027's TVs. It will probably go through mass manufacturing later in 2026, ready to be assembled in TVs at the end of the year and the start of next year perfect for the usual TV cycle of announcements at CES and launches during the following April or May.
In meantime, we expect that the 2026-release Samsung S95H/S99H will use
Tandem WOLED for its 83-inch model again though that's no bad thing, given the performance of the LG G6 OLED TV in our review , which uses the same panel. Thinking of buying a new TV? Try our TV size and model finder! You
