September 6, 2022 Off By Rowena Cletus

A collaboration between Samsung and Amazon’s Prime Video allows fans to experience 8K content from the much-anticipated The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power series exclusively on Samsung’s cutting-edge screens. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has been the world’s leading TV manufacturer for 16 consecutive years.

Tolkien fans and newcomers alike will have early access to exclusive content exclusively on Samsung before the September 2nd series premiere on Prime Video. In New York City today, Samsung will showcase 25 minutes of content from the series’ first two episodes on its three-story LED video wall at Samsung 837, Samsung’s flagship experience center.

This includes the LED digital screens overlooking New York City’s Times Square, London’s Piccadilly Circus, and Milan’s Piazza del Duomo will debut dynamic creative from the series starting this week.


Samsung will be the first company to offer series content in 8K resolution through a custom sneak peek with exclusive scenes. On Samsung Neo QLED 8K TVs and “The Wall” 8K Micro LED displays, viewers will have the opportunity to experience the epic journey in great detail. In the near future, fans will be able to access the exclusive 8K trailer.

“Collaborations such as this mark a major milestone in bringing 8K – the most premium display technology – to the forefront for viewers,” said Simon Sung, Executive Vice President and Head of the Sales & Marketing Team of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “For the first time, fans can experience the stunning imagery of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power on Samsung Neo QLED 8K TVs.”

“Samsung’s exceptional technology and screens felt like a natural fit when it came to immersing our global fans in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,” said Andrew Bennett, Vice President of Global Device Partnerships at Prime Video. Samsung’s depth, detail, and passion for the series have set us on an incredible journey together – one we cannot wait for audiences to experience.”

Samsung is a leader in the development of 8K display technology, delivering a good immersive home entertainment experience. Whether it’s the stunning vistas of Khazad-Dûm, the majestic forests of the elf-capital Lindon, or the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, fans can experience the Second Age of Middle-earth in pristine 8K resolution.

This is made possible by Samsung’s Neural Quantum Processor 8K creating cystal clear and immersive content that is bolstered by Dolby Atmos and Object Tracking Sound – a Samsung technology that follows the action on the screen.
