Tech Breakdown

We've translated the jargon into plain English. No tech degree required.

Size

48"

Screen size is measured diagonally. Bigger isn’t always better if you sit close - match it to your room.

Picture detail

4K

Display type

Panel type affects contrast, colour, and viewing angles. Different panel technologies suit different rooms and budgets.

Processing power

NQ4 AI Gen3 Processor

The processor helps with picture enhancement, upscaling, and menu speed in day-to-day use.

Motion smoothness

144Hz

Higher refresh rates can make fast motion look smoother, especially in sport and gaming.

Gaming features

Motion Xcelerator

Gaming features can reduce lag and keep motion smoother on compatible consoles and games.

Release generation

2025

Model year helps identify the hardware generation and software feature set.
