Samsung 2018 QLED TVs will support 120hz Freesync and VRR

Samsung announced it will release QLED televisions (I am not talking about monitors here) in 2018 that are going to support variable refresh rate technology (VRR) which is possible with HDMI 2.1, as well as FreeSYnc. Samsung announced this at a technology congress in Milan.

The 2018 QLED LCD TV models, as well as the mid-range NU8000, will support refresh rates up to 120 Hz at a Full HD resolution, reports flatpanelshd. next to that, the 2018 Samsung TVs will support two variable refresh rate systems. If you are a PC game, here comes AMD FreeSync. Your PC or compatible console will remain in sync:

FreeSync is one of the systems supported by Samsung’s new TVs, meaning that you can use them as a capable gaming monitor for your PC. Then there are the HDMI 2.1 models, these can support VRR (variable refresh rate), which is the HDMI Organization’s standardized version that pretty much is FreeSync but intended for TVs. Right now Samsung’s 2018 TVs do not feature full HDMI 2.1. These TVs are still based on the HDMI 2.0 interface standard but manufacturers are allowed to cherry-pick certain features from HDMI 2.1 to bring to HDMI 2.0 based TVs.
