[@Caleb_Denison]

Hey all. Q70D and Q80D do appear to be 120Hz native with VRR, but Samsung’s use of the Motion Xcelerator badge can be misleading since most use of that kind of verbiage in the past has indicated a lower native refresh rate with motion enhancement to “fake” a higher refresh rate. I’m still not entirely convinced that is not the case, and have a question in to Samsung to see if they will clarify. That said, the spec sheet does list a 120Hz refresh rate deep down in the listing, but not as “native”.

[@maghnas20]

For the q70c q80c, q70d, and q80d are all 120hz which is clarified on their website

[@garrettstrutz7421]

The Q80 definitely has all the gaming features of the high end TV’s. 120hz VRR and all the best gaming features plus has fald. It’s been that way since Q80B at least I know I own an 85 in. The Q80 series is an excellent tv that gets overlooked to often and can hang with the high end TV’s just fine. It’s definitely not fake 120hz it’s ledgit 120hz

[@FenixPajarito]

What happened with the Hisense U8N review? 🤔 BTW some are saying the LG G4 is gon be tv of 2024

[@Caleb_Denison]

@@FenixPajarito not sure what you mean. Did you expect it to be the next video? I can understand that, I guess. But I definitely spend more than 4 days on a review. Then it gets shot. Then edited. Then uploaded and scheduled.

[@Caleb_Denison]

@@FenixPajarito it well could be

[@wilhitman1]

Thank for breaking down the model numbers - extremely helpful👍🏾

[@mutteringmale]

Yah, except his missed one glaring thing....the extra numbers and letters on model numbers are to keep the public from price matching the same exact tv across different manufacturers. It's a nasty filthy deception that the government nor any A.G. seems to care about. No one out there protects the consumers in America. The government are all crooks.

[@wulfgar3081]

Thanks! Yes this video was helpful. Please do more videos like this for other brands.

[@mbimbimoyo]

extremely helpfull video.i didnt understand where the crystal uhd models fitted until today.thanks for this video.

[@cjkings423]

I found this very interesting please continue this series

[@darrylanderson4868]

Agree. Keep up the good work. I would be interested in seeing the same done for other manufacturers. I'm in the UK and we will have models you guys in the US don't and vice versa.

[@mysteryman5213]

Definitely appreciate these types of concise & focused vids. Keep em coming.

[@Jza-GZa]

Love your videos,Keep them going because they are relaxing and informative at the same time,Super well done Caleb!

[@chuckz28]

Love this video format!! We need videos like this every year for each big brand (Sony, Samsung, LG) IMO. The basics of the lineup to decide where to start. Thanks Caleb!!

[@slapshot0074]

Thoroughly useful and enjoyable guide. Absolutely would like the same for 2024 sony, lg etc.

[@Uuuung]

Very informative video! Love that you have a segment for each model and explain. Would love some more info if the tvs are good for gaming (input lag) and watching sports

[@cristoferomezzatesta2992]

Very helpful Caleb. You cut through the complexity so well. Other manufacturer comparisons and a ‘once a year’ entire cross manufacturer comparison would be great if it’s not too complicated.

[@bruceparker3139]

Thanks, Caleb and digital trends, your videos have really helped me understand different TV techs and made my buying choice better

[@Josh-jk1sq]

One of the best videos explaining types of TVs ever, will share this to the sales representatives from one of my stores

[@Revolver1981]

TOSSA!!!

[@richardfrankel6102]

Yup--both helpful and interesting. Thanks, Caleb!

[@xskalibur]

I liked this breakdown and would like to see breakdowns of other brands.

[@kingneptune4200]

This video was very helpful! I would like a video going over Vizio and Hisense TV’s

[@PeIon316]

I just got the QN85D. I don’t know if I’m missing much from the QN90D, but honestly, I’m pretty happy with it.

[@chrisrivera2]

Please keep these videos coming breaking down TV brand lineups!

[@ZakNazif]

Great content! Need your opinion ... QN90d or QN800c?

[@davidgroll-cook7125]

Yes It is nice to have someone explain things, marketing makes it so hard to decide which one is best for you Thanks

[@taidee]

It was definitely helpful Caleb, thanks.

[@btc76]

great video Caleb, appreciate it !

[@esumiwa5583]

found this interesting and helpful. more please

[@raftofar]

Grate video. Defo need more content like this.

[@hitardo]

I really appreciated this video! I would love to see one about LG, TCL, Sony, and Hisense - in this order. Cheers!

[@adolfoallende4380]

Thanks Caleb!! Now I am clear about Samsung's line of TVs. It would be great to have videos for Sony, LG, Hisense and TCL, with a summary table at the end... if that's not too much to ask!

[@ivankostka9075]

Sony did not announce their lineup yet.

[@Barbarapape]

@@ivankostka9075 They are about to, the best is always worth waiting for.

[@MaxMax-vf3xk]

Would love to see more, liked how you quashed the misinformation about matte on s95D, I was worried about that until you told us about it!

[@kennethcheung4938]

Love the breakdown on the product line up. Thanks Caleb!😊

[@DarkKnight-gw4gw]

Great video. Very helpful.

[@JohnKeyser]

Great info video, thanks!

[@davidaandersen5781]

Thank you so much for the information. I went to Best Buy yesterday trying to figure out what the model numbers meant. I hope you do the same type of video for the other tv brands out there.

[@JamesOKeefe-US]

Still absolutely love my C2 that you suggested Caleb, it has been fantastic! Looking for a last year model from 2024 for my next TV! Appreciate you and the team!

[@thetruth0009]

I just brought my s90d and was wondering are you going to put out a video of your calibration for this specific tv or is it room specific?you made yours look amazing btw love the way you do your reviews !

[@jesse1008]

You have explained this beautifully

[@AustinPS97]

The video was a nice summary of Samsung's 2024 TV lineup. I'd definitely like to see more videos like this for other brands' TV lineups like Sony, LG, and Hisense, for example.

[@Sas-wk9lj]

I've always wondered, when you found something or someone that is great, why can't you simply relish it thoroughly as one unique gift. Why do you still hanker for and look forward to more copies of the same? Your endless demand for more and better, always keep unsatisfied with what gem you already got. You get easily bored with what you already got and cast your eye on the future that isn't real. Enjoy the present moment.

[@izzydealer]

Thank you very informative and useful segment.

[@KK-ef1ow]

Defintely liked this style of video! And I just bought an S90C heavily discounted! Couldn't be happier.

[@chadwickadams2778]

S95D also heavily discounted...at least for another day. I received $2300 (Canadian) off the retail price. $2000 discount and even though I didn't trade a TV in, I still received another $300 discount. Getting a $6000 TV for less than $4000 feels like theft lol.

[@rolandrohde]

Samsung is going a bit crazy with their Discounts. I wonder why they don't just make the TVs a bit cheaper from the start...🫣

[@vincentvincent9576]

Same, 83 inch S90C for $1300 off last week. What size did you pick up?

[@KK-ef1ow]

@vincentvincent9576 I got the 75" from Costco for $2450 all in, but that included an extended warranty. Best Buy had one used for $1800 pre everything, but they had it out as a floor model for a month and I wouldn't have touched it with a 10' pole. Jealous of the 85". Maybe one day 🤣

[@KK-ef1ow]

@@rolandrohde for the sucker's who have to buy the latest and greatest immediately and don't care about money.

[@kenjimaru14]

Very helpful thanks

[@andrewnguyen9607]

Great videos!!! Keep them coming. Love your contents. I have a question regarding Wi-Fi connectivity for these TVs. Which brand TV has the fastest Wi-Fi chip/connection. I have a 3+ yr old TV from Samsung and I notice the Wi-Fi connection isn't consistently fast enough for streaming content nowadays. I have 600mbps network at home so I'm assuming the available speed isn't the problem.? Anyhow, greatly appreciate your input.

[@matthewweflen]

This video was helpful. I would like to see summaries for the other major manufacturers as well.

[@MrOmega52]

Thank you for the samsung breakdown. Love samsung products, have a 2010 7000 series tv and s23 ultra, galaxy watch 6 classic, ect. Thank you again for this episode.

[@jamescassar5348]

We definitely need a Hisense explained video! Excellent job Caleb

[@Melchirobin]

This was definitely a great video and helpful to know what the TV lineup means for Samsung.

[@Doug-mu2ev]

Whoa! So awesome! More brands next!

[@Radders1433]

Great video. Still cannot get over the purple hue to the QD Oleds..

[@Langor]

I love you. Haven't bought a tv in a decade and my 60" died. Nothing is reaaaaally explained on their websites. This is what closes that gap

[@jorgetepaz1365]

Very informative would definitely like to see a break down with other brands.

[@nfrancis11]

When able, want to see a comparison between QN900D and top QD OLEDS.

[@koolrunnings3135]

This is a great video - clears the samsung sky. You should do the same for Sony, LG, tcl etc.

[@JeremyJorgensen]

Wow Caleb, this video is exactly PERFECT at explaining EVERYTHING that the average person needs to know about Samsung's TV lineup... Perfect, perfect, PERFECT! More of this, please! ...P.S. Retailers are often selling last year's model AND this year's model alongside each other, so I am often trying to find information on the difference between last year's model vs. this year's model (i.e., ADS Pro display in the previous model, vs. VA display in the new model, etc.), so videos which include that kind of information (like this one) are very helpful.

[@MrStormione]

That is a great and helpfull video. Please more of that.

[@BottyGuy]

Thanks for the rundown, all the models are so confusing. I need a new 55” TV soon, I keep my TVs forever the current one is 10 years old. I mostly watch TV shows, Movies and sports. It needs to be is a room with lots of windows and reflection is a real problem. Is the anti-glare only a S95 feature or does the S90 have it as well? It sounds like it works well.

[@airixxxx]

Great video, It would be nice to have the infographic show TV sizes for each model and panel.

[@markwexy1621]

Keep these kinds of videos coming please. I want to know what the 2024 lineup is going to be for Hisense and TCL as well.

[@sprroach44]

Please do more of these line-up articles! I purchased a QN90A 3 years ago, and it's a great tv but I'm starting to notice some panel imperfections.

[@stuffpunks]

This was awesome. Would like to see for Hisense and TCL

[@user-hj6hi9ho2k]

Love your content as always!!! Keep up the awesomeness you’ve been providing. I’d love to see the same content you’ve provided in this educational video for the 2024 line up for the T.C.L. , Hisense, and especially the Sony line up. This is the year for me to move up to the Sony mini LED. Thanks again for all the insight you’ve been providing. 👍🇨🇦

[@latingringo89]

We thinking the S89D will be a thing at BestBuy in the US?

[@filipppk3961]

Always great content and very informative. The only thing I was missing was more of when these TV releases? That would help inform of how long the 2023 year models are going to be discounted, and maybe even get a bigger discount close to 2024 year models release.

[@jey1686]

Is there a panel lottery for the s90d 55inch and 65inch as well? Have read reports that there is no guarantee of getting a QD-OLED screen with these TV’s

[@chadwickadams2778]

I just purchased the 77" S95D and it arrives in 3 weeks. This is a long overdue (and huge) upgrade from my current 2008 50" Samsung HP-T5054 plasma which could only do 720p HD...not even full 1080p HD. I am excited making the jump from 720 (skipping 1080) to 4K. At the time that is what I could afford, 1080P were still expensive and 720 was common. Was still leaps and bounds better than the SD rear projector I had. Regardless of only doing 720p, its motion processing and black levels were leaps and bounds better than 2008 LCD's. When viewing the S95D on the showroom floor, I can assure videophiles when the TV is on it looks glossy and dripping wet. I was debating about going with the 85" Neo QLED QN92D just for bit of extra size, but with $2300 (Canadian) off the S95D it was a no brainer. Neo QELD's can do amazing things but as a former plasma owner, I wanted something comparable and that is OLED. Also FYI, my 2008 Samsung HP-T5054 plasma is still running solid! No burn in, no dead pixels, a testament to Samsung engineering.

[@zoner__]

Should I use Samsung soundbar or Sonos Arc with these tv's? Is there really a positive to use the matching soundbars from Samsung?

[@astronomyphilly]

This is great, need this for all brands.

[@haroon707]

I need a tv with a very good picture.. which one do you recommend.. qn90 or s90 ?.. thanks

[@geevamathew]

Do you know anything about the QN92D Neo Qled? Nothing was mentioned in your list of TVs? Difference between the QN90D? I just ordered the QN92D 55 inch. Wanted to know if it was a good buy compared to the QN90D

[@ToThe-kk1dm]

How is my q95t holding to this? Is it still decent in tech and picture quality when compared

[@Aldarune_Valheim5515]

Yes this is quite helpful 😁

[@thehomiegil2952]

Quick question, I’ve always known the Q70 and Q80 to have 120hz, did they change it this year?

[@knotslip8862]

Great video...would love to see you do the same type of video for Sonys. Thanks!

[@Revzinator]

Hi. As an alternative to the neo QN90D (2024) to save $$, would you get the neo QN85D or the neo QN90C (2023)? Or others? Thanks.

[@thinnyzzonviddyzz6546]

No cap, stupid helpful!! ❤❤❤

[@aaron-price]

Yes, please continue these types of videos! For me (I'm thinking I'm not alone), specifically Sony and LG.

[@recess7]

Hey Caleb, I wanted to ask if there's a big difference between CU8000 and Q60C in terms of picture quality? Because in my country the price difference is quite steep

[@zed6and789]

Can you explain the difference in improvements from last year? I'm considering the Q70C, but the newer Q70D has just been released. I see the newer version going on sale next week for only $100 more, but has it seen any improvements from last year's model? The specs look identical.

[@_nemanja_p_]

Thank you for the explanation. It was very useful. I didn't need to watch the video 5 times or research for days. I just had to look up on prices, specs and available models after watching your video once or twice. I bought Samsung 55" Q80C from supplier on 20% lower price than retail price because I work with tech(have small store). It was the last piece available and about 40% cheaper than 2024. model. I am very happy with my purchase, and I plan on keeping it till it dies or I see some oled models in lower price categories, about 1.000$ instead of 2.000$ or above. Also, I have a 5 years warranty because right now Samsung has some promotions where I can register for an additional 3 years on top of 2 years, which are demanded by law.

[@tylersilva]

Only a panel switch to VA for the QN90D was mentioned. Do we know what is happening for QN85D?

[@marcofabiocarosi2996]

Thank you Caleb. Does it mean that the Serif series is not confirmed in 2024? I saw Samsung showing a new ivy green colour for it at CES 2024. Do you know more? BTW I love the serif, I bought it for the kitchen and I can say its colour volume is mesmerising.

[@sinterklaasenzwartepiet4267]

Do you thinks a good deal on a repaired qn90b with two years of warranty is worth it still? Alternatives for that price would be something like the tcl c805 in europe

[@LRobertsonFlick]

So is the new Frame tv worth upgrading to over the old one?

[@Justice_Akbr]

Have you told them when 55 inches micro led tvs release?

[@matthewpelz1073]

I've been waiting for videos like this. I hope you do other brands as well.

[@taraskuz7317]

[@michael-4k4000]

What about the new S85D? Is it a QD-OLED or WB?

[@teoparts1094]

I'm not sure which one to buy. Which is better to choose in size 55 qn95c or qn85d?

[@gertost]

Would it be worth switching from Lg 65c2 to Samsung s95d 77 inch, on black friday? Or keep the lg C2 a couple of more years, for even better picture Quality/technology?

[@michaelchenault3774]

Great video Caleb, please do more like this in the future. Especially for Sony when they finally release their lineup in the near future.

I'm thinking of buying a TV to use as a Home Office (Mostly MS apps like Word, Excel, PPT e.t.c). I womt be upclose, my viewing distance will be about 2 meters. I'm torn between an 8K or QD OLED option and between a 55 or 65 inch option . Which will produce clearer and crispier text?

[@joeschmoe5009]

Caleb, at ces you mentioned a physically cooler oled panel. Whats the word on that tv?

[@adamn6519]

I thought enthusiasts like VA better than ADS.. ADS has bad contrast and more blooming..most people watch TV straight on

[@chalcac3462]

Agreed. Why this shit about bad colour on sideways viewing? Why? I have a Pana gx800. VA panel was a must!

[@allargon]
