Samsung Tops Global TV Market For 17 Consecutive Year

“Our track record of industry leadership over the past 17 years was made possible by our consumers’ continued loyalty and trust in our products. We will continue to pave the path to create the most premium device experiences that go beyond premium picture quality.”

 Cheolgi Kim, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics.

With its technical expertise and industry-leading innovation, Samsung Electronics has been recognized for its global market leadership and excellence.

According to market research firm Omdia, Samsung once again topped the global TV market in 2022, making it the 17^th year in a row the company has ranked first in the TV industry. This accomplishment can be attributed to the company’s commitment to premium viewing experiences and user-centered design.

Samsung’s leadership in the TV industry – Neo QLED lineup is the best

By prioritizing its premium product lineup, Samsung has upheld its unparalleled leadership in the TV industry for an impressive 17 years, exemplified best by its Neo QLED lineup. In 2022, Samsung sold a staggering 9.65 million units of QLED and Neo QLED TVs, bringing cumulative sales to 35 million units since its launch in 2017.

Samsung also dominated the ultra-large TV market segment in 2022, reporting a 36.1% and 42.9% market share for TVs over 75-inches and 80-inches respectively. For the premium TV market priced over $2,500, Samsung retained the largest market share by revenue at 48.6%.

Samsung’s leadership in the TV market for 17 consecutive years is a testament to the company’s commitment to providing the most innovative products with consumer-centric designs and upgraded user experiences. The launch of the Bordeaux TV in 2006 marked the mainstream adoption of LCD TVs with sophisticated designs and light-weight form factor.

It was also the first time for Samsung to rank number one in the global television market. The company continued to bring groundbreaking technologies closer to consumers by launching its first LED TV in 2009 and Smart TV in 2011, holding the top position in the market throughout each of those launches and after.

QLED TV and QLED 8K – Quantum dot technology achieving 100 percent color volume

Samsung continued to push the boundaries of picture quality and innovation by introducing products with the latest technologies as well. In 2017, Samsung defined the term “next-generation display” by unveiling the first QLED TV, which utilized quantum dot technology to achieve 100 percent color volume for the first time in the industry.

In 2018, the company launched the groundbreaking QLED 8K, followed by the Quantum Mini LED-backed Neo QLED and the self-illuminating MICRO LED in 2021. This collection of innovative technologies redefined the standard for TV picture quality and continued to set new industry benchmarks each time.

Additionally, Samsung has been at the forefront of pioneering new categories such as the Lifestyle series. Starting with the iconic design of The Serif in 2016, Samsung has continued to evolve its product lineup with designs to enhance the user experience through products such as The Frame, The Sero, The Terrace, The Premiere and The Freestyle.

In 2023, Samsung’s commitment to innovation continues with the development of intuitive technology designed to meet the needs of users. SmartThings will enable seamless integration and connectivity of multiple devices with security remaining a top priority, empowering users to create deeply personalized experiences that accommodate both their unique preferences and needs.

How EcoStruxure IT Modernizes the Monitoring and Management of Hybrid IT Infrastructure

“Schneider Electric is investing in and evolving EcoStruxure IT to provide more capability, flexibility, and deployment options than ever before for enterprises and colocation facilities everywhere in the world.”

Kevin Brown, SVP of EcoStruxure Solutions, Secure Power, Schneider Electric

Schneider Electric, the global leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, on March 4 2023, announced the modernization of its EcoStruxure IT software portfolio for the monitoring and management of sprawling, hybrid IT infrastructure, which has become increasingly complex in the last few years.

As IT infrastructure continues to spread, business continuity is dependent on everything from the smallest end point to the largest data center. Therefore, edge deployments are now considered as mission-critical as centralized data centers, and a new capability of software tools is required to maintain the resiliency and security of the infrastructure.

Additionally, sustainability is emerging as another significant trend: the energy consumption and carbon footprint of a company’s data centers will need to be measured and managed. Based on internal Schneider Electric projections, by 2040, total data center energy consumption will be 2,700 TWh with 60% coming from distributed sites and 40% from data centers.

Legacy DCIM software wasn’t created with all of these concerns in mind, which is why Schneider Electric has invested in EcoStruxure IT. It modernizes the monitoring, management, planning, and modeling of IT physical infrastructure, with flexible deployment options that include on-prem and cloud-based solutions to support hybrid, distributed IT environments, from a few sites to thousands of sites globally.

“There’s been tremendous change since DCIM first emerged as a software category,” said Kevin Brown, SVP of EcoStruxure Solutions, Secure Power, Schneider Electric. “The hybrid IT environment is challenging even the most sophisticated CIO organization with maintaining the resiliency, security, and sustainability of their IT systems. We call this trend DCIM 3.0. Schneider Electric is investing in and evolving EcoStruxure IT to provide more capability, flexibility, and deployment options than ever before for enterprises and colocation facilities everywhere in the world.”

Addresses top industry trends of sustainability, security, and resiliency

EcoStruxure IT modernization comes at a time when 99% of large company CEOs agree that sustainability issues are important to the success of their businesses, security ranked #1 on the Allianz Risk Barometer, and 62% of IT outages can be attributed to infrastructure failures by cloud and colocation suppliers. As a complete software portfolio, EcoStruxure IT empowers customers to operate the most resilient, secure, and sustainable IT infrastructure, anywhere.

The vendor-neutral capabilities enabled by EcoStruxure IT deliver value through customer-driven applications, including:

• Monitoring and Management: Device management for power and cooling devices, as well as physical security and environmental monitoring.
• Planning and Modeling: For visualization, asset tracking, simulation, and change management for over 4000 devices.
• Custom Solutions and Integrations: Tailored solutions to address unique customer requirements through automated reporting, dashboards, migrations, and custom integrations with EcoStruxure IT and third-party systems or software.

“The IT infrastructure landscape is undergoing significant transformation as it evolves from individual data centers to distributed, hybrid IT, and it demands more than what we think of as ‘traditional DCIM’ to ensure it is resilient, secure, and sustainable,” said Industry Consultant David Cappuccio. “EcoStruxure IT is helping to simplify the complexity of sprawling IT architecture and modernize it for both current and future needs.”

EcoDataCenter’s climate-positive data center

Schneider Electric customer EcoDataCenter provides both colocation services and high-performance computing. Located in Falun, Sweden, EcoDataCenter operates with an emphasis on climate-positive solutions. When it was time to build a new data center designed to be EcoDataCenter’s greenest and most future-forward build yet, the company was in need of a partner with shared sustainability priorities and turned to Schneider Electric.

“With the knowledge and technology on Schneider’s end, and the ambition from ours, it’s a good match for an efficient and green facility,” said EcoDataCenter CTO Mikael Svanfeldt. “EcoStruxure is a platform that unifies our products to provide genuine insight on how our data center is operating.”

Specialized team of engineers performing EcoStruxure IT integrations globally

To maximize a customer’s experience with EcoStruxure IT, Schneider Electric has created a custom solutions team comprised of skilled engineers who perform custom integrations everywhere in the world. This one-of-a-kind team provides the necessary resources and capabilities to ensure a customer can deploy EcoStruxure IT successfully.

“This team embodies what Schneider Electric means when we say that we are the most local of global companies,” said Kevin Brown. “Team members speak 24 languages and represent 15 nationalities. They partner with customers in every part of the globe. We are there to make sure the customer is successful in the short term and the long term.”
