Samsung Neo QLED 4K QN90D TV (2024) Review

[@stephensonmc]

Just bought the 55” version bc of this vid! Well done.

[@HowToDoItTech]

Thanks very much and hope you enjoy your new TV 👏🏼👏🏼

[@davidokyere9006]

Ive just bought this as well. I was contemplating an oled but like you I have a lot of light during the day.

[@9to5techs]

​@@HowToDoItTechI currently have the s90d 77-in. I heard that the QD-OLED screens are easy to scratch I just looked at mine with the screen off with the flashlight and I have two scratches. I was thinking about taking it back and replacing with the QN90D 85 in or should I just get a replacement for the s90d or replace it with a QN90D. I am in the living room with light controlled environment. The only thing I will do is watch movies, TV shows, a little bit of news, no video games. Is the QN90d black levels almost the same as the s90d would I be disappointed with the QN90d.

[@Tripokaridos22]

I am thinking of buying it , but at 0:51 the Reflections look so terrible , is this like that glossy reflective ?

[@9to5techs]

No the reflection handling is good​@@Tripokaridos22

This video is very useful and informative! Thank you for it!

[@MrMoeJo]

I appreciate your comprehensive review of the Samsung QN90D. I’m tuning in from Australia, and I’ve been on the fence about whether this TV is the right choice for my movie nights, gaming sessions, and occasional live TV viewing. It’s tempting, especially with the significant discounts being offered on the 75" model here. My past experience with Samsung has been positive; I still remember the 64" curved 4K model I bought in 2013-it’s still performing flawlessly. I passed it on to my father-in-law for his sports and live TV enjoyment, and he’s quite impressed with the image quality. Currently, I have a 2017 LG OLED TV, and I’ve been holding off on an upgrade, waiting to see how TV technology evolves by 2024. Thanks again for shedding light on this brilliant TV.

[@HowToDoItTech]

Thanks for watching! I'm glad the. Video was useful. I'm not sure how many TV reviews I'll be doing but it was a fun to look at all the new tech

[@jroc01]

Just bought the neo QN90D 43 inch today.I just game and way h movies and I'm pleased so far.

[@madhaz3359]

I have on the way the 43 inch version to use as a pc gaming monitor ..... fingers crossed I like it!

[@Joncosterpe]

Brilliant review, thank you. What settings did you use for general movie watching or streaming? I find the film mode a bit too yellow.

[@HowToDoItTech]

I use Movie Calibrated for everything apart from Sports. It tries to maintain the original intended visuals but with a bit more brightness. I'd use Filmmaker Mode in a completely dark environment

[@Joncosterpe]

Thank you!

[@Dean-jn1ho]

Hi there. Planning to get this in the 65inch but i see that you have mentioned something regarding football matchs and how the AI cant process the video? What can i do about this so i can watch footballl with the no distortion? Please Thank you

[@HowToDoItTech]

The specific problem is using the AI functions when watching sports. My advice is just to turn it off until Samsung update it and it actually does what it's supposed to do

[@Dean-jn1ho]

@HowToDoItTech thank youuuu very much. Appreciate your response!

[@smirkinggoku5435]

Looking for reviews since this TV is on sale on my country for $705 for the 50inch version.

[@keithzastrow]

JUST ordered this in the 85" size directly from Samsung 2 days ago. Delivery by December 11. Could not pass up their black Friday sale. Can't believe how cheap I got it.

[@mustafaa8843]

Thanks a lot for your review, i have bought 55qn90d , but i feel like the picture is not smooth, is there an option to increase the frequency rate??,

[@HowToDoItTech]

Unfortunately there's no way to force a refresh rate, but different types of content should display at the correct frequency. e.g. A connected gaming PC playing compatible cable and games can achieve 144Hz. Some content will play at 120Hz on Netflix, for example. KZbin is capped at 60hz I believe but would need to verify.

[@TonyMontanaSF]

Hi my QN90D arrived yesterday and your content has been a great help! However can you please tell me how I get terrestrial TV? this tv doesn't have Freeplay built in...

[@HowToDoItTech]

Yep, you should be able to connect a coax cable from your wall if you have the necessary connections in your home already.

[@TonyMontanaSF]

@@HowToDoItTech thank you! I managed to get an indoor aerial, scanned for channels and the Live Terrestrial Tv icon appeared!👍

[@malikzain5024]

Thanks for this! Anyone got this TV and played on a PS5? Any difference when compared to standard 4K UHD?

[@jasonneale1989]

So is the panel type on the 50inch please?

[@HowToDoItTech]

Yes, it's the same panel in the qn range but the larger TV is going to achieve 8K

[@sandipsarkar123]

Thanks for this great review. I'm weighing the 65" QN90D against the Sony Bravia 7 . What would be your recommendation

[@HowToDoItTech]

Thank you, I really appreciate the feedback. Sadly I'm unable to supply an informed opinion without being able to own both TVs. However, I was commenting to another viewer that just looking at the spec, the use of Mini LEDs will make a big difference for eliminating light bloom and improving HDR on the Sony. The rest of the specs are comparable to the QN90D so I think you'd be pleased with either. I've also always liked Sony panels, even if the manufacturer changes. Sony tend to keep their QA high.

[@sandipsarkar123]

@@HowToDoItTech Thank you!

[@hunterscrackdealer6650]

Just bought a TCL QM7 75”… how would you say that the QN90D compares? There’s a $300 difference in price from the TCL 75” and the 65” QN90D. I’ve only had the QM7 for a day but it looks great. Trying to see how much better the QN90D looks for the additional $300

[@HowToDoItTech]

Sadly I'm unable to make the comparison for an informed opinion (one day I'll have a giant studio and lots of money to buy everything). However, from the specification the biggest feature for HDR is the fact the TCL QM7 uses mini LEDs versus the larger LEDs in the older models. That should perform just as nicely as the QN90D. The rest of the specs look good too comparing it to my TV. The AI stuff isn't as important right now until they iron out some of the bugs and refine the processing to actually have a consumer benefit in all situations.

[@bucclao209]

One of there Samsung flagship top tech this year besides the very expensive qn900D 8k that has AI Gen 3 and the qn90D is gen2 but tho TCL qm7 I think as good but for me the Samsung probably has a more luxurious design I think

[@sumit180288]

Bravia 7 vs qn90D which is better assuming no gaming requirements at all

[@HowToDoItTech]

Sadly I'm unable to supply an informed opinion without being able to own both TVs. However, maybe another viewer will be able to chip in with advice.

[@wobble108]

Bravia.

[@The03325883518]

could u please compare with bravia 7 ?

[@HowToDoItTech]

I would have loved to but sadly I won't be able to in the near future unless Sony send me a free TV :(

[@Oscar-sz7sp]

Can you confirm what is the Panel Type for the 55 inch? Is it a VA or IPS panel?

[@HowToDoItTech]

The latest Neo QLEDs use VA panels

[@Ehrle6969]

43 and 50 va above ads

[@Oscar-sz7sp]

@Ehrle6969 looks like I get different answers but i do believe you. I have a 55" QN90C, I like it but... I keep thinking maybe I should have gotten a VA panel tv.

[@wobble108]

​@Oscar-sz7sp stick with ips the viewing angles are diabolical. Or go oled.

[@Oscar-sz7sp]

@wobble108 The new IPS-pro screens are great but I bought the 65" QN90D it's a VA with wide viewing angles the contrast is crazy good. I don't like the drawbacks of OLED for my type of viewing.

[@toddy3474]

I have just ordered the 98” get it next Friday I hope I like it 🤞

[@keithzastrow]

Do you like it? I'm getting ready to buy the 85" version.

[@Sorianosebas]

Had this for 1 month, already went through main board replacement because it seems this t.v cant handle twitch streaming for morr than 19 minutes in a row, new board didn't solve the issue. T.v was picked up for repair at a samaung center

[@HowToDoItTech]

Ugh. That's awful. I hope they fix it.

[@winstonlindsay8486]

Also is it easy to copy QN90D TV Samsung remote control to universal remote control🤔🎉✍️

[@MrBrendanblake]

I literally have the same tv and I don’t have the picture modes you do. Why is this? I’m having issues with ghosting effects and minor screen tears.

[@HowToDoItTech]

That doesn't sound right if your model is the QN50QN90DAFXZC?

[@adnantoons]

Can you compare it to qn90c if passable. Like key differences

[@HowToDoItTech]

I won't have the opportunity myself but I did see this video that might be helpful for you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2TcpniDo9-FbsUsi=DmAC5WVdb3rQubWR

[@pat9753]

Own the QN90B. Bought the QN90C because the B was exceptional. The C however was awful with blooming and screen bleed. I really want the D, however at $1800 for a 55-inch I'll wait for a sale.

[@winstonlindsay8486]

Does the 90D have Dolby Amos features 🤔✍️

[@HowToDoItTech]

Only on the 55" version and above.

[@TheNummer16]

hey, would you buy the 98 Zoll Samsung QLED QN90D (2024) ca. 5.000euro or the 97 Zoll LG OLED G2 (2022) ca. 10.500euro ?

[@HowToDoItTech]

Unfortunately I'm unable to make the comparison without the LG TV to look at. My only feedback is that I've been a loyal Sony TV owner for a while but decided to check out the Samsung TV because it works really well with my other Samsung devices.

[@bucclao209]

Is this better than the last year 85” qn800c 8k?? Let me know anyone?? Thx

[@thereviewdaduk]

Looks pretty cool.

[@JairoPL29]

good video, just a favor could you try the following video "4K HDR Fireworks Sony Oled TV Demo" on KZbin with the local attenuation on high and see the blooming that it presents a lot or a little, because mine presents a lot in this specific video and in subtitles in general.

[@HowToDoItTech]

If I can find some time I'll be sure to test this.

[@JairoPL29]

Ok thanks :)

[@أحمدالغريب-ص9ح]

I will buy a QN90D today, 75 inches. Will it be worth it?

[@HowToDoItTech]

My advice is that the panel and the performance is great. The AI features need some work and refinement to do exactly what they are intended to do. The good thing about the AI is that it can be improved with future updates so the TV has the potential to continually improve over time.

[@unclnphw]

Hi. Ive got the same model . But doesnt have Gaming hub. Im from philippines btw

[@keithzastrow]

Can get this in the 85" size right now directly from Samsung for $1840. I'm not passing that deal up.

[@dedskin1]

That is a mirror right there i can see your room like in mirror , that is not anti glare , that is type of a panel that does not have light dispersion , mat finish . That helps it achive higher contrast , looks blacker but its a mirror , if they put mat finish on it that will scatter the light , that dispersion affects incoming light from the back , reflecting some back raising the black levels . Its a choice , i assume it has some anti reflection sprayed on it to make reflections dimmer but its practically a mirror finish . I have Samsung UD970 32inch PLS panel , its mat , there are no reflection at all . But its made for professional picture grading where black is not important since on the picture no one cares about blacks , it has only dark grey . If it was glossy finish it would have darker shade of gray but they made it so that you work with light not dark . Hence its mat PLS or IPS panel calibrated in 24 individual zones , that is like every 1,5inch squared a zone , just like dimming zones but calibration , so that you have perfect image across , better then OLED in lights , but there is no black that is the sacrifice . Im not sure that glossy finish is best for your room , i have the same in my living room and sometimes i have to move , cant watch the reflections , but it handles darker scenes better then professional monitor . Since mine is IPS panel , making it mat would just make it worse in dark room , but if yours is VA panel , i think it would be better overall if it was made mat not reflective . But just like speakers , TVs are compromises . Everything is a compromise , OLED is just as bright these days , bright enough . At least WOLED is , but that dont make it perfect . It has bunch of problems . And so do new QLEDs , they have so much layers ,so much complexity that i think TV life span is half of what it used to be . I still have 12 years old LG VA panel 1080p with local dimming , its fantastic , and made of metal , not plastics . While my Sony Bravia is plastic . It looks better then my IPS panel watching from the front , but as soon as you hit 25 degrees to the sides , its not so much of a color shift but Noise , you see noise . Noise from the source , like from Film or IMAX , or whatever , Noise remains on the same level , while colors get washed out , i dont know how that works , but watching Netflix Star Trek on Sony Bravia VA panel from an angle is a wash of noise . But its good straight on

[@AdrianBanks-g6w]

QE55QN700CTXXU is this tv any good please?

[@HowToDoItTech]

Hopefully I can help. Overall, it's a very good panel but my final thoughts were that the AI functions aren't quite that useful. You could potentially get a cheaper TV with the same smaller LEDs and you'd be happy with the performance.

[@AdrianBanks-g6w]

@@HowToDoItTech thanks for your advice 🙏

[@allanblyth6150]

Yeah good that but that music is the worst I've experienced

[@HowToDoItTech]

Lol.

[@allanblyth6150]

It actually made me go a tad crazy 😮

[@JamesGlass-b1l]

Bought a 75in for £1580.00

[@Tripokaridos22]

0:51 Is this So Terrible Glossy Panel ? There is no Antireflective Coating ? It looks like is Not for Use at Day time .

[@HowToDoItTech]

Yes, there's definitely an anti-glare coating. My room is very light though it's not such a problem when I close the blinds or at night time

[@Tripokaridos22]

@HowToDoItTech so it needs darkness for this TV to work. Is there any OLED tv with matte panel ?

[@HowToDoItTech]

@@Tripokaridos22 Generally speaking OLEDs aren't as bright. Check out the following in my video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZ27fol7gbCoY7ssi=ewOgzh2nDajCYuZN&t=104 Having said that I do know that the 2024 Samsung OLED TVs do include the same anti-glare technology. However, because of the lower peak brightness for OLED, you'll be starting at a disadvantage versus LED if that's your focus.

[@AdrianBanks-g6w]

QE55QN90DATXXU anybody let me know if this tv any good?

[@mindcache5650]

As good as it is, I’m waiting because AI and accelerated computing is advancing exponentially to such an extent that gaming graphics, CPUs will be incorporated into mega transmitters within 3 years. TVs of today will be defunct in comparison.

[@muralikasini]

Do not buy this tv, the display went bad on mine in 3 months,. Manufactured in July 2024, purchased in Aug 2024 and gone bad in Nov 2024. QN90D. Paid around 2000 dollars equivalent in India for this model 65 inch.

[@HowToDoItTech]

Sorry to hear that. Did Samsung honour the warranty for you?

[@muralikasini]

@HowToDoItTech they want to replace the screen and want me to hand over a 3 month old tv for ripping apart.

[@steinvynck774]

Dark is tooo dark... so bad contrast is bad. They really struggle with the lighting these samsung tv,s. Crap. I had the qn90b.. returned it.. everything was overbrighted. Also the colors are faded,bland. I had the philips oled 807,808 Lg c1,c2,c3. Lg 823 led.. Sony bravia. And more.. Samsung s95b... Philips the one.. and 808 is so much better than these other brands.
