Get the Samsung QN90C: www.rtings.com/afflink/AbMAAJ...
The Samsung QN90C/QN90CD QLED is a high-end 4k TV released in 2023, sitting below the Samsung QN95C QLED. It replaces the Samsung QN90B QLED in Samsung's lineup, but it has more in common with the Samsung QN85B QLED. It's available in a wide range of sizes, from 43 to 85 inches, so there's something for everyone. It's powered by Samsung's Neural Quantum Processor 4k, which was first introduced in 2022 and is designed to deliver better upscaling, optimized on a scene-by-scene basis. Like other Samsung TVs, it uses Samsung's proprietary Tizen OS interface, which offers a large selection of apps and games. It's compatible with the Bixby and Alexa voice assistants, and it supports the new Matter smart home standard, so you can control all of your Matter-compatible smart devices from your TV.

I've owned this TV for almost a year in both the 55" and 75" models and they are absolutely fantastic televisions! Videos like this are great for convincing people to buy other models instead and now they're selling super cheap. I bought a second 75" QN90C from Amazon last week for $1477... an amazing deal! Get one now while they're still in stock!

Hi, I've been debating for the longest time between the 75" Samsung QN90C and the 75" Sony x93L. They both looked great in store and I just pulled the trigger on the Samsung at Bestbuy primarily due to price-- the Samsung was $1750 and the Sony was $2500. I hope I made the right decision as the Samsung seems to get a lot of hate which I don't really understand.

There's a problem from my understanding, that Samsung haven't made a direct replacement. The 90C is now comparable to the 85B. The 90B (last years) is now comparable to the 95C. Due to a rebrand and something to do with the USA market. At least that's how I understand it. So the only way to compare would be in pricing not model numbers. As the 90B was more superior to the 90C as I understand it.

Thanks! Have you ever thought about showing the differences in ... lets call it clarity? by using the simple "adjust clear type text" using a connected pc? My personal 55qn90c panel fails in all regards. It simply can´t show text (white on black + black on white) correctly. My marco pictures show orange and blue beeing lit up as well on the border between black and white. Orange on the left and blue on the right. VLC playing in native resolution has its time counter skewed wth the ":" beeing a brighter blue than black. And whatever i try to clear or smooth out: the text always looks like it needs anti aliasing. Coming from a 50qn94c, which can brilliantly be misused as a pc monitor if the desk has 40 inch depth, this .. "ads"? panel seems to be not fit for work. I´ve read your article and setting suggestions and have tried even the wrong settings (anything but 4.4.4). Could anybody kindly test this as well? And it is not only medicore in its upscaling. BG3 Charactes have less detail than on my 50qn90a: I´ve made a burly blue eyed ork with fairly visible eyelashes that look far too feminine on him. Those are simply gone in any portrait picture. And his cheek tatoo hard can be seen. I´m still testing to see what i could be doing wrong..

I have an LG model number 55UM7400 that does HDR quite well apart from live sport (Sky and TNT Ultra HD). The picture is too dark when watching football. If I upgrade to the QN90C, 50 inch, will I see a noticeable difference in the picture quality, or is the HDR on this LG just as good? Cheers.

@richmahogany1710 8 ай бұрын

Interesting they seem to have changed their tune on the QN90C pretty recently. They had it as the best bright-room TV for a while and best QLED. Now they have the X93L and the Hisense U8 ranked ahead of it on the website.

@benthompson8683 8 ай бұрын

I know. I think that viewing angle is severely under-valued for ratings. Just about every living room I've been in has a couch with the comfy corner seats that are outside of the Hisense's viewing angle window. I would live it if Rtings did a deep dive on what the average living room actually looks like. People probably sit off-angle way more than they think.

There's a few things that no reviewer really talks about. I want to know how many mini LED's each size has and what the differences in number is compared to last year's model. The older 43 inch model from 2022 did not have anti reflecting coating did they resolve that in the 2023 version? And something that the 2022 models had was that you can't fast forward on h.265 videos it can only play the video's but it can't scroll through them. Has this been fixed?

I had back light bleed. Showed a pic of it to a member of bestbuys geek squad and he said he would return it so I did. The replacement had even worse backlight bleed. You don't always see it but it's something that can worsen. I've seen other people show photos of theirs with less then mine amd complaining yet I'd settle with what they had. Guess I'll be either exchanging it again or move up to the LG C3. I got it for $600 off so I'd prefer to keep this model for that reason and it is a great tv otherwise.

How does it compare to x90L? Would you choose x90l or QN90C? X93L is not available in india and x90L has very less dimming zones but have heard it handles blooming better. So bit confused with x90l vs QN90C or even S90C..they all are priced very similar in India. Need good brightness also.

@asole100 8 ай бұрын

Sounds like OLED is the better option if you aren't afraid of burn in. The point of Min-LED is to have better blooming control but the QN90C can't even get that right even with the better hardware therefore defeats the purpose of getting it. I have an X90L, and an OLED monitor, both are good but at night I prefer my OLED even at the smaller size, and even though the upscaling doesn't look as amazing as on the X90L. Consider what your use case is first before picking between the S90C, and the X90L.

I just setup my Samsung Q90C. Used the expert calibration. I am very picky with movies and sandy grainy issue on many movies and it depends on what I am watching. Any movies where there is a landscape scene intentional blurriness, like The Flash, there is a sandy grainy quality to the picture. The main subject comes in very clear and fine, especially video games. In one movie there was a panorama and the main subjects are walking in a valley the picture is quite grainy instead of the intended blur that you would get from looking at something from a distance. Absolutely show and plays games better than my 8 year old Samsung curved, but not movies. The old Samsung shows things in the distance with a proper blur not a grainy blur. How weird.
