The thing is, though, that QLED is much cheaper to manufacture than OLED. If they can't figure out how to make OLED at a profit, then that's just more incentive to transition to QLED. It's still quite a ways away--I got the impression that they haven't actually built any TV-sized QLED displays yet--but the significantly cheaper cost is the main reason why it's such a promising technology. The others are that it's twice as cost efficient and can be used in flexible displays, but those are going to have more relevance to small displays (smartphones, tablets, watch, etc.) than to TVs.
I get that, which is why it shouldn't be as long a transition period from OLEDs to QLEDs as it has been from LCDs to OLEDs, but when you haven't even made TV sized display's yet, and we're not even seeing QLED's in smaller applications yet (phones). OLED technology has been in phone's for almost a decade now, and Samsung, who will be the first one to apply them commercially I would imagine, really isn't anywhere close to being ready to doing that.
