Previously available as an app, the SeeColors feature will roll out to customers who have already purchased the company’s TVs and monitors launched this year as a software update, according to Samsung.<\/p>\n
The South Korean firm stated<\/a> in a press release that the new SeeColors accessibility mode will offer users a set of nine presets that will automatically adjust the levels of red, green, and blue (RGB) colours that are shown on the screen, in order to improve the way users with CVD see colours on their screen.

Back in 2017, Samsung introduced the SeeColors app on the company’s QLED TVs that used the quantum dots on the company’s TVs to ramp up brightness, increase contrast, and widen the available colour palette for users who were affected by CVD.<\/p>\n Samsung first introduced SeeColors as an application in 2017 Samsung says that the SeeColors mode will be available\u00a0on the company’s TV and monitor models from 2023.
