Samsung’s new QLED and Neo QLED TVs boast extensive accessibility features that make using the remote, finding content, and fully experiencing what’s on the screen possible for more people.

In a video released last week, Samsung outlined a number of features aimed specifically at people with low vision, the Blind, hard of hearing, and the Deaf.

The NEO QLED sports all of Samsung's most advanced accessibility features.

Many of the features Samsung outlined were already available on earlier models, and some, like the ability to customize closed captions, are common to many brands.

The First Look 2021 video includes some genuinely touching moments in which people with a variety of disabilities interact with the new features.

The new accessibility settings will be available on all 2021 QLED and Neo QLED models—premium models in the 2021 line-up that may prove to be out of reach for many customers.

Nevertheless, the bright spotlight that Samsung chose to put on accessibility during a global press event feels like a big step forward.

And with major companies like Samsung and Microsoft normalizing accessible-first design, there is some hope that improved accessibility will become cheaper and more widely available in the next few years.
