For several years now, micro-LED has been touted as the next big thing in TV tech (and screen tech in general). Micro-LED tech works like the best OLED TVs in that each pixel emits its own light, meaning you get pixel-precise contrast with infinitely deep black tones – however, the pixels can be far brighter than may ever be possible with OLED, and they should be more durable and longer-lasting.
But despite being first introduced for TVs several years ago, there hasn't been a ton of movement in micro-LED TVs. They're extremely expensive, and they're generally only available in very large sizes, mostly breaking way past the 100-inch battery (though Samsung managed to get the tech into a 75-inch set). And these huge sets are still 4K, when you might expect the likes of Samsung to make them 8K.
