[@TechSteve]

Most samsung are around 10ms in gaming mode, which is fine. Most consumers sites says anything under 30 is exceptional for TVs. If you need faster use a monitor

[@simonant1165]

@@TechSteve hello, can you tell me what samsung remote are you using? Thank you

[@Z4d0k]

This is an easy decision if you're sensitive to PWM flicker (which apparently I am!). I had to return my 75" QN90B as it was uncomfortable to watch due to PWM flicker that fatigued my eyes after only 15 minutes. The worst part is that it's not visible, you just notice your eyes feeling dry and have to blink often. Terrible experience, so beware buying Samsung QLED TVs without spending half an hour watching it to ensure you're not bothered by the flicker. Otherwise just buy an OLED or SONY LCD TV.

[@antisystemicparadise1202]

Hey friend, i have the QN90B for about 5 months and i never had any of the issues you mentioned above. No flickering or whatsoever. Probably your unit was defective or something 😕. I personally sold my C1 to get the QN90B because i was dealing with a lot of frustration during the daytime, that was a really bad huge bummer so eventually i ended up buying the QN90B on discount for about 870 Euros after one of my friends bought it before me and of course he introduced it to me before i go to spend all that money, and considering the price range i mentioned, I'm pretty sure there was nothing better in this range.

[@Z4d0k]

@@antisystemicparadise1202 hey mate, the TV was working perfectly, but the flickering issue only affects some users. I couldn't see the flickering, which is why I didn't notice it at the store. It was only after getting it home that I noticed the symptoms (but I still couldn't see the flickering!). Rtings has a review of the TV that explains why it can cause eye strain in some users. If you don't notice it, then I'm very happy for you and hope you enjoy your otherwise great TV :)

[@annielmorera2406]

I just got the LG c2 and it’s amazing , great video as always !!!!

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

Hey Steve I think both are great TV's personally. The LG C2 is excellent in a dark or dimly lit room and the Samsung QN90B is excellent in a room with lights on.. Both TVs have specific use cases and both technologies are the best we have available presently. My setup at home is OLED in my bedroom with dimly lit and Miniled in my living room with lights on. I just have different TV's but that's my setup.

[@TechSteve]

It’s perfect for that, I’m getting blowback that I’m bias with OLED because I lowered the Samsung brightness, I tested and the camera can’t capture correctly and that’s with RAW 4K but realistically I don’t care what people purchase, i have a-lot of TVs and trying to catch up on videos, lol

[@chiefjudge8456]

The QN90B is better in all light settings. OLED (and by extension the C2) is frankly too dim for a good HDR experience, and they have poor text quality due to the WBGR pixel layout.

[@vincentgagnon8569]

I hesitate between the two {q90b vs lg c2}. To me the longevity is the most important factor. My 11 years old 50'' plasma tv has started developing burn in at the top because of intensive pc usage and i cannot stand it anymore. I would like a tv that can last 8 years if possible. My heart says C2 but my head says Q90B.

[@ehtishamahmad3146]

Buddy the moment u reduced the brightness on the qled down to zero to make the competing oled look better, u took away any advantage the qled had... this review was entirely biased towards the c2 oled...

[@TechSteve]

That’s one way of looking at it, i gave you my experience between the two, if you ever decide to film TVs you will quickly find out how light blows out the image, most TV reviewer lowers the brightness or it would be impossible to film. At least I’m telling you that i did it. I paid for both TVs it doesn’t matter to me which one people considers buying

[@RodMurray777]

I Agree it’s impossible to compare a Mini LED to Oled especially when you turn down the brightness on the Mini LED to make a comparison.

[@TechSteve]

You’re welcome

[@MM-Official]

But reducing brightness on qled make it less bloom on other hand, so ...

[@lewisevander]

Yes but it also benefits the qled by increasing the contrast as blacks on qleds get deeper when the brightness is reduced due to lesser blooming and the colors also look deeper but not as vivid as it looks with high brightness.

[@johnnorton6085]

I purchased both of these TVs from Best Buy. My living room has windows on three sides with the TV in the corner. I get a lot of sunlight reflections. I loved the LG but it was not useable. The other problem with the LG is you can only have a single remote connected. The Samsung did not get rid of all the reflections on the screen but it was much less noticeable. I returned the LG.

[@TechSteve]

Windows are a TV enemy

[@Edward-Norton]

I think a better comparison would be the C2 vs the S95B. Of course the C2 is better in this comparison. I hear people complaining about OLED in bright rooms but I have an OLED and it's plenty bright

[@nakamuraHirooo]

C2 has pink tint issues which makes the white and grey color unwatchable. Sadly reviews are not highlighting it.

[@illidan015]

The first impression that someone has when seeing these 2 televisions in a store is that the QN90b is more attractive, but it is an optical effect due to the saturation and brightness in the first impression, when you look more closely the OLEDs are incomparable and are better from all angles.

[@TechSteve]

True

I had the QE43QN90B and it was way too bright for my liking. Viewing angles were garbage aswell. You had to look head on to get a good picture. Moving slightly to the left or right and you will notice the image deteriorating quickly. It got damaged and I've now bought the C3. Look forward to unboxing it.

[@AYO_GAMING_CHANNEL]

Qn90b wins for me , I like maximum luminance and overall light on the qn90b , tried both side by side ... plus the Qn90b has zero risk of burn ins

[@Darknight0681]

I’ll take the burn in risk to get the superior contrast. As bright as it is, you really notice the difference with movie watching. And in the case of the S95B, the color reproduction just destroys anything the QN90B can do. Even in SDR. Also, another issue with QN90B is that you can’t use the high setting outside of game mode. The blooming is horrific, even on grey backgrounds.

[@smokygamess]

I bought a Samsung qn85b burned out in 3 months

[@jonathanmcdaniel8008]

I had to replace my bedroom Samsung 55” JS8500 a couple of months ago because of the edge light burn in that kept creeping in from both sides. I accidentally walked out of a BB outlet store with a Sony 65” A90J for about $1800 after taxes. I couldn’t pass up the deal and now it’s hard to watch a regular LED at times

[@Jimmy_edc]

How would you compare the LG 50 Class 80 VS LG C2?

[@phabran]

QN90B is better on brightness peak and lower risk of burn-in issues. C2 is better on everything else.

[@TechSteve]

Brightness is handy on HDR Content in a bright room

[@lewisevander]

Please do a comparison again with the same tvs but this time use white bias lighting on the qled as that will improve the perceived contrast.

[@marktepper3440]

I love the promise of OLED but I’m concerned about burn 🔥 in and the fact it’s an organic material that will fade unevenly based on the content you watch.

There’s a pro and con on most products but there’s mixed reviews about burn-in and I’m not willing to test because I paid for the LG.

Da aber beide vor allem als Monitorersatz oder Gaming beworben werden, ist der C2 deutlich unterlegen. Durch sein ABL fährt er die Helligkeit ständig rauf und runter, was ihn als Monitor komplett unbrauchbar macht. Der QN93B macht das nicht und kann über HDMI sogar 144hz. Als TV ist der OLED nur minimal besser, aber als Gaming-TV oder Monitorersatz hat der Samsung definitiv gewonnen.

Dude,,,, I beg DIFFER. Steve said”i turned down Brightness Level to ZERO” What the hell😅😅😅!! I have 2 FLAGSHIP QLED panels…both can LOOK Match OLED but more crisp bright. First of all QLED has 2 Panels. Brightness- Controls Black level n dark colors. BACK LIGHT-controls PEAK brightness n OVER all panel brightness. HE only said” turned brightness down to zero “ which is ridiculous which should NOT be in well lit room. But why did HE NOT TURN down the SAMSUNG’s BACKLIGHT to match room lighting. At that room with light bulp, I would sent it to 65-75% back light. Also why putting in film mode? Film mode makes them MUSHY! Not sure OLED does it, but in Samsung n Hisense, TCL… d STANDARD mode are d MOST clear crisp natrual. Showing store demo putting FILM mode..that act of Intention is QUESTIONABLE. Film mode is a filter. LIke how u take pics from 70s n 80s…those pics dulls. It will make crisp pics auto looking funny.

I was thinking that the colors were more important, lesson learned. Lol

[@Sejuani89]

Once you see a bright TV, you never want to go back to a dimmer one, regardless if its OLED or not. QN90B trashes the C2 OLED in brightness. HDR content are becoming a standard thing for streaming shows and movies nowadays so having a bright panel really brings out the best in those content. LG C2 OLED should only be considered for a dark room, but for general use, QN90B is miles better

Well I am not as educated so I may appear as having dumb questions. I'm always interested the most about movie watching. The tv's having or not having HDR and Dolby Vision etc. Also I don't really know if HLG is here in the United States, only in Europe? Also a few days ago I used Amazon Prime with my U6H and the tv said Dolby Vision in the upper corner of the tv. I noticed that it changed the picture settings or should I say checking the picture button, the tv changed and made the tv look very good. So now Dolby Vision is important to me since I have Amazon.

[@N3rd_Rush]

Does the picture degrade in gaming mode for QN90B? Are colors noticeable worse than C2?

[@chiefjudge8456]

Avoid the C2. Too dim for a good HDR experience, bad text quality due to WBGR pixel layout, less color space coverage, and burn-in issues. QN90B (and the upcoming QN90C) are better.

Hey Steve, on the Sony A80K, looking for the usual suspects, black levels, razor smooth sports, regular TV viewing and upscaling of 1080p to 4k and of course HDR pop. I have an all black theater and run an Epson 5050UB projector and this tv would be located behind my projector screen. The TV will be used for regular tv and news viewing. That way I prolong the life of my baby for movies and sports on my 200 inch screen. Btw, i tried 2 laser tv's and my 5050UB was way better on blacks, color pop and HDR with the 16 point brightness slider built into the EPSON on the remote, that makes my massive image POP! The laser tech is still not better than projection but I am glad that they are getting closer. Thank you for your hard work!

I like how you adjusted brightness on the Samsung. This allows us to truly compare the color and picture quality without being fooled by high brightness. We all know miniLED is much brighter than OLED. What we don't typically see in reviews is how much richer the OLED is, making the Neo QLED look washed out in comparison.

I only opted for the FALD tv because of the kids as they like to pause the tv leave it running and tend to watch a alot content with static imagery. Plus the living room is really bright and tv is mostly used during day light hours. But LG OLED could replace the Sony in the next few years. OLED tvs are the real future, the almost perfect panel. The other tech, though some are fantastic, i feel are there just to fill in the gabs of not being able to purchase a OLED i.e budget, kids, type of usage etc. 75 in oled in the living room 😍

🌳LG C2 OLED evo is best! 🌳

[@EDCB291]

Der LG C2 ist besser und trotzdem habe ich mich für den Samsung entschieden. Wenn man nur Filme schaut, dann würde ich den LG vorziehen. Wer ihn aber als Monitor benutzen möchte und als solcher wird er auch angepriesen, dem kann ich von dem LG nur abraten! Der "ABL" regelt im Stillstand die Bildhelligkeit locker um 50% herunter. Scrollt man etwas hin und her, fährt er die Helligkeit wieder hoch. Das ist das absolute KO Kriterium beim LG wenn man ihn an einem PC benutzen möchte. Bild des LG C2 ist minimal besser als beim Samsung QN90B. Die Fernbedienung des LG ist wesentlich besser und auch die Leistung der Technik. Beim Samsung habe ich immer wieder mal Verzögerungen wenn ich eine Taste drücke. Manchmal drücke ich sogar mehrmals bis etwas passiert. So etwas gab es beim LG C2 nie. Trotzdem habe ich den Samsung genommen, da das Bild praktisch auf dem Level des LG C2 ist und ich das Menü des TV sowieso nur selten nutze. Als Monitor ist der Samsung QN90B erste Wahl. Einen nervigen ABL hat der Samsung nicht. Wer TV schauen will, sollte zum LG C2 greifen. Wer ihn als Monitorersatz haben möchte, sollte zum Samsung QN90B greifen.

Wow you lowered the Samsung brightness to ZERO(!) to match the LG. Thats my problem with OLED - looks like the midrange of light is gone - it has only the power to light the smaller areas of highlights - and it gives there fore a "fake" high contrast look.

Micro-led is the future. Oled is too dark.

[@BestHunterSniper]

QN90B is better. The sound is high quality compared to the poor sound of LG C2. More than 2000 peak brightness for QN90B against 800 peak brightness for LG C2. Infinite contrast on LG C2 is at the level of the Samsung contrast in « dark mode ». That’s why Samsung TVs are amazing. They managed to have almost same level contrast against infinite contrast. Unbelievable.

If I can give a bit of constructive criticism. This is the 7th review I watch comparing this 2 tvs, since I’m currently deciding which one of them to buy. And this one is the only one where the difference was monumental. In this video the Oled looks much much much better than the Samsung , like if this video eas the only one out there , I would have instantly discarded the Samsung. Turning brightness down to 0 really gutted the Samsungs contrast , wich was one of the best things it had going for it. In the other reviews I saw. I was feeling okay so daylight landscapes , like for example nature documentaries (which I love) definitely look better in the Samsung. Reds and greens pop out more , it’s beautiful. However dark scenes , like a bonfire in the night , looks quite better on the OLED due to those unmatched deep blacks. However… Based on what I was seeing in other KZbin reviews I was starting to lean towards the Samsung , since it’s blacks although not as good as the ones on an OLED , where really impressive , mini led is impressive gets respectfully close to what OLED does. However on a bright room filled with windows , and lots of sunshine , like the one where my tv is , the Samsung brightness would make the tv a much better suit. Had I only watched this review , based on what my eyes saw during it. I would be like damn , that Samsung looks bad , it looks dull , it has terrible viewing angles. It’s not even worth half of that OLED. If I can give and advice. If you can’t record them together leaving the Samsungs brightness untouched. Then record them separately, and edit them together. But seriously handicapping one of the 2 tvs , for recording purposes , seriously damages how one of the 2 looked. Like I said 3 times already. If this was the only review on KZbin . I would have though the QN90B it’s an utter piece of crap. And based on the other review I know it really isn’t

[@TechSteve]

Nah, it’s didn’t look as good to me, I recorded it with the brightness at zero but I tested it before I filmed. I personally like bright TVs because I watch a lot of HDR, I had the c2 on my bedroom for 3 days and I was like nope not me. I’ve used 3 other OLEDs and they are not for me. Higher end mini led is my personal preference or QD-OLED. I think people don’t understand that I have over 30 TVs and I’m not new to filming videos on TVs. I play them for hrs before i film them. I always say buy what makes you happy reviews are only opinions. Every OLED that I have used as personal TV I keep look for the brightness settings just to find out that it’s a 100% 😳

[@buschg7106]

C2 is overrated nonsense. Bought it and sold it. Went with a Samsung. Much better

[@samtech889]

Samsung sucks

[@user-jj3xn5ms2i]

C2 is far superior to a Samsung QLED

[@Yeahight11208]

@buschg7106 I have to disagree with u I had this Same Samsung TV for 2 days I took it rite back to P.C Richards in got the C2 and I'm happy I made that decision because the C2 is way better but everybody has their own opinion

[@richardmazursky2796]

Samsung is best option specifically for gaming. 1. Samsung Nits around max 2000 but LG c2 evo 800 2. Samsung HDR 10 + but LG c2 probably just HDR 10 3. For gaming samsung offer 144 hz but LG c2 120hz 4. Samsung latency at 10.1ms - faster than the LG C2 (13.1ms) 5. Most important : Samsung and you never worry about burn screen

[@okidoki3191]

Weird testing, like they said before . Lower it to 0 and de oled to full brightnes. Don’t test cars plz !😂

[@TechSteve]

It was one video out of 800 it’s all good

[@chiefjudge8456]

QN90B won. Avoid the C2. Too dim for a good HDR experience, bad text quality due to WBGR pixel layout, less color space coverage, and burn-in issues. QN90B (and the upcoming QN90C) are better.

[@chiefjudge8456]

@@paulcox2447 MiniLED allows perfect blacks and very high brightness. OLED can't give you HDR because it is too dim to create meaningful contrast. OLED is an inherently flawed (due to burn-in), dying tech and every advancement related it is putting lipstick on a pig. It's dim garbage and every single OLED panel will get burn-in. 10 years from now it will only be on devices with batteries (a low power profile is the only actual strength of OLED) and will be entirely replaced by MiniLED and MicroLED on desktop monitors and TVs.

[@Da-iken]

C2 have not "Burn In" issues at day 1. You can use it easy 5 + or 10 years... while you must live with all the problems of LED at day 1. What a nonsense comment. And no, Mini LED don´t have perfect blacks. It is impossible. OLEDs have perfect blacks because of pixel level control. In dark scenes side by side the OLED will look much better and the Mini LED like an entry level TV.

[@TykE1x]

why are you making this coment all over youtube??? Are you paid by samsung or smth??? or you just trying to justify your own bad buy???

[@Uptownv]

I have been using LG OLEDs for years and I watch a lot of cable news. No burn in for me.
