Samsung QN85A & QN90A (2021) - TV Picture Settings

[@Wayne55231]

My settings for my QN90B that I find is a good for a bit of everything. Picture mode = standard. I found the other modes lose a lof of detail in dark scenes no matter how you tune the settings. Brightness = 25 (if too bright for your liking lower it) Contrast = 35 Sharpness = 5 Colour = 25 Picture clarity = custom. Blur reduction =4. Judder reduction = 3. LED clear motion = off. Noise reduction = off Local dimming = standard Contrast enhancer = off Colour tone = warm 1 gamma = st.2084 st.2084 = 1 Shadow detail = 1 Colour space setting = auto Other settings Intelligent mode settings: All off Power and energy saving settings: all off.

[@TomasRamoska]

Bluer Reduction is pure evil. I watched movie first time with my wife and we both can't watch it. Movie looked like 60fps so unnatural. This future should be set to 0 by default not to 10. I think most cinema shot on 24fps and 180 degree shutter angle for a reason.

[@TechCody113]

i had few of these but couldn’t get a clean panel from banding or DSE so i’m gonna pick one up today 8-16-21 and see if i can, but i can say when i last had one i had motion blurr set to 3 it was perfect no motion blurr or dumb soap opera effect, it’s to bad tho this tv had worst motion blurr for gaming i’ve ever seen tho, and the settings did nothing at all, but if i get a clean panel guess i’ll get use to it as i’ve tried about every model on the market this year for top tier, oleds to dim, sony tvs colors to washed out, the Q80-90 models from last year had horrendous DSE, qn90a didn’t have much of that at all but the banding was pathetic LOL guess i’ll play the panel lottery again thanks samsung🤣🤣

[@kristof46]

It is your option. I can’t understand how in 2021 people still defend 24p. Whole screen is shaking flicking. No way to turn it off. Blur on 3 is best to me.

Minor correction. You can deselect all the information sharing agreement. The interface makes it seem like you have to accept it to continue, but you don’t. If you disable sharing of information, you get 0 ads. No need for dns adblocking.

[@RTINGSdotcom]

Hey! Thanks for the comment! :) So with Samsung, Ads are written into their Terms and Conditions. Disabling information sharing would most likely just change targeted ads, not ads in general. If this isn't the case though, let us know! :)

Pleas don´t use the Gamma 2.2, it´s old fashioned. The BT 1.886 ist the standard for HD Content.

In your demo, I see that you are able to change "picture mode" while "Intelligent mode" is on. But on my QN90A "picture mode" is disabled when I turn on"Intelligent mode". Can you let me know how did you do that. And also can you let us know your inputs on "intelligent mode"

Is there a service menu walkthrough on how to disable local dimming for the QN90A out there?

[@jamesyouil8314]

Can’t find this answer anywhere so a reply would be so helpful. It’s well established in your videos that on Samsung TV’s, “judder reduction” is responsible for motion interpolation, and therefore, the ‘soap opera effect’. You guys never, however, talk about “blur reduction”. What exactly is that, and does increasing that contribute to the ‘soap opera effect’?

[@RTINGSdotcom]

The Judder Reduction slider adjusts the interpolation of low frame rate content (30fps), and Blur Reduction is for 60fps content! So the effect will be the same, it just depends on the content you're watching.

[@godw1ll99]

i think it should be mandatory to start mentioning panel type. for example i purchased the q80t for pc gaming because of its overwhelming positive reviews and specs but nothing was ever mentioned about its panel type and why it matters. well for me the va panel type causing dark smearing effectively turns the tv in to a strobe light under common pc gaming conditions. this is why im looking to get the ips or rather ada panel type of the qn85a right now.

[@pawelnotts]

I just bought QN95A (in UK). This TV has major issues compared to Q7F that it replaced. HDR gets dim for no reason, when local dimming is set to anything other than LOW then it drops saturation of certain parts of the screen, black text just smears when you scroll up and down. I am really disappointed with you and other reviewerers for not mentioning thos issues at all.

Which then leak to another issue, Audios are out of sync. I know we can change the delay, but only limit to 1 source…. When you have local TV, ATV, PC, NAS…. Etc,…. You can only pick 1…. Samsung need to create multiple audio profiles for different source!!! For LCD, picture is top of the line right under OLED. But less than half the price, I’ll wait until OLED fix burn in issues. Only thing weaker than Sony is color, skin tone is not match. Sony has the best skin tone.

[@BobbytheBeast444]

To be honest these TVs seem way too complicated for the average viewer. I just got the QN85A and I'm trying the preset picture modes. "Standard" is supposed to be the default mode on my TV, but I'm having big problems in Standard mode. The reset values for the Standard on my TV are Brightness 36, Contrast 50, Sharpness 10, and Color 25. At first the picture in the Standard mode looks a bit brighter than the Natural mode and a bit less brighter than the Dynamic mode. But the picture in the Standard mode slowly loses brightness and in just about 30 seconds the picture looks much darker than even the Movie or Filmmaker modes, even though the "expert settings" don't change. Only when I change the mode to something other than Standard and then quickly back to Standard does it return to the proper brightness. But then it keeps getting darker after about 30 seconds. This happens in the Standard mode when playing TV content, cable box content, and BluRay content, but strangely enough keeps its brightness on my Firestick input. Do I just have a bad TV or is there some other setting(s) causing this? Any help would be appreciated.

[@godw1ll99]

ips sucks until you go to use it for gaming, especially pc gaming... va motion blur and black smearing is unbearable especially on something like the 55"q80t which im using now which turns in to a strobe light under common gaming conditions. the constant switching between bright and dark during panning movements in games paired with the local dimming going haywire because of it can get pretty intense.

Hey Adam, We've seen a few similar comments recently, so it's possible this might be a Samsung UI related bug. Unfortunately, there's not much more you can do if the PS5 says its working but the TV doesn't. You can verify if it is actually working by clicking the center button and pulling up the HDMI details at the top of the screen, the refresh rate should fluctuate. Hope this helps!

[@SmoothNobody]

your video says VRR/game mode turns on automatically when it detects a console, but i’m on PC. when i start a game, it says VRR is off. at 9:46 in the video you say to get the most out of your gaming experience turn on VRR. you show a menu that manually enables VRR, but at the bottom you have a caption that says: there is no setting to enable VRR, even though you show one. i am very confused, how do i turn on VRR with my PC? firmware is current, game mode auto/on, input set to PC, nvidia control panel g-sync on. also, when game mode is on, it blows out all my colors, like its trying to force HDR, when its not an HDR game. this persists at the desktop when no game is running. HDR says off in game bar in and out of game.

[@RTINGSdotcom]

So just to be clear, what we're showing at the 9:48 mark is the actual Xbox menu, not the TV menu. You should make sure Game Mode is set to Auto and make sure to enable Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) in the 'External Device Manager'. VRR should be working at that point as long as you have the hardware to support it (like an RTX card or a FreeSync GPU) and you're in Game Mode. You can try copying our settings while in Game Mode as well if you don't like the picture. We're not sure if you're talking about the same issue but, some owners have reported an issue with colors washing out in certain picture modes. We tried to reproduce the issue on our unit, but it's nowhere near as bad as other owners have reported. It appears that this varies between individual units, and some regional variants, like the Samsung QN91A QLED, might perform worse.

Thanks for the Great Channel. I relied on it before I bought the QN85A (It just fit our budget!) I am appalled at both the Manual included with the TV, and eManual supplied by Samsung. I expected much more detail for what the TV cost. I can't seem to find how to upscale the 1080P TV signals (via HDMI) from the Shaw Cable box to "near" 4K, with their Intelligent AI upscaling. (Unfortunately Shaw offers no native 4K content unlike Telus. Of course I just signed 2 year contract with Shaw before buying this TV!) Can you advise how to toggle this upscaling on - or is it just supposed to do it automatically? Thanks for the assist.

[@TechCody113]

tvs upscale automatically and the 85 didn’t upscale as good as the qn90a

[@Jimsathome]

@@TechCody113 Thanks for the info. I thought it might. I've got the 85 integrated into my Home Theater setup through my Denon AVR-X4400H receiver and have it upconverting the 1080p TV signal. Now I wonder which one will work better?

[@TechCody113]

@@Jimsathome it’s hard to tell, at least i’ve been told the qn90a upscales better but hardly any difference so idk lol

[@kamalnarayan7754]

Can someone tell how is there a way to toggle the AI upscaling on this model? And if there isn't how to check if the content is actually getting upscaled or not?

[@glogan4078]

Best let TV auto upscale. Usually does it better than streaming devices. E G the SkyQ box is best left at default 1080i.

[@TechCody113]

@@glogan4078 it’s funny my 2013 $7000 samung curve tv always looked sharper in 1080i then 1080p yet internet speaks opposite 9/10 times but i always thought 80i looked better

[@eikerir]

Would all the same settings apply also to the QN90B or would there be any differences? Thanks :)

[@RTINGSdotcom]

They're different TVs, so it'll be at least a little different. Here are the settings from our website though: www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/qn90b-qled/settings Hope it helps!

[@ThatGuy-Noob_69]

Just a note about your tests you shoukd defiantly start doing a "contrast ratio" in game mode.

[@slawomirzarek8026]

Guys i need help or at least answer. I bought qn85A with ADS panel. All works great but some red colours are just blowing my eyes for exalmple on app list „RakutenTV”. This red is too bright but there are red colours that looks great. Pls tell me is this something that can be calibrated or its some kind of damage in TV.

[@RTINGSdotcom]

If you can try to send us a picture or video of the issue on one of our other social platforms, it might help us better assess the situation. If you're worried about it being damage to the TV though, then you may want to contact Samsung support directly!

I need some help. For my series x hdr calibration what number should I set the checkerboard pages to?

[@RTINGSdotcom]

You should try to just follow the prompts on screen and stick with what you think looks best. Everyone is different, so unfortunately we don't have any recommendations for it. Sorry about that!

[@Rajesh_0190]

Recommend a picture mode accurate to rec.709

[@hanbasssolo]

For hdr content should I follow the white balance calibrations from tbe rtings website or is that for sdr?

[@RTINGSdotcom]

Our white balance settings are for SDR only.

[@johnnyhustle6976]

Why does he pronounce the letter “H” when he says HDR like they do in the UK, even though he doesn't sound British, but then he says “H” in the word UHD like we do here in the US? No hate, just curious.🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks so much for this helpful guide!! Liked and Subbed on the basis of the video. Cheers!!

[@knight796]

Hey, guys! Would it be wise to use these settings as a base for a qn90b? I got one yesterday and have been looking around for a settings video for that but haven't really found one.

[@RTINGSdotcom]

While we haven't published a video yet, we always include a settings page to go along with our full reviews on our website. So, it's probably best to use the QN90B specific settings, which you can see here: www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/qn90b-qled/settings Hope they help! :)

[@oscrm1760]

This settings work the new qn85bd neo qled 2022

[@RTINGSdotcom]

They’re different TVs, so we wouldn’t recommend it. We have our settings here though: www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/qn85b-qled/settings

[@jamesh4966]

Mine doesn't have a movie mode or filmmaker mode. Could it be because I am using it as a gaming monitor and internet?

[@gabrielirlanda]

Go to system admin (general menu) user mode: domestic (not commercial mode). See if you can now see the filmmaker filter.

[@policemanZlatan]

change your source from the main menu tab

[@Dezzyyx]

It's actually explained in the video, it was the same for me using PC with the TV. The TV will recognize the source as PC and thus there will be no Movie mode. You need to edit the source tab for the PC, to something else, then Movie mode will unlock.

[@jamesh4966]

@@Dezzyyx Thanks!

[@alexrsps141]

12:45 The button does not seem to do anything for me?

[@RTINGSdotcom]

Hey Alex, Just to confirm, when you're displaying content, the center button doesn't bring up any info about the refresh rate and stuff as seen in the video? If you continue to experience this issue, you could always try restarting the TV to see if it resolves the issue. Otherwise, we're not too sure what's going on or why it's not working. Sorry about that!

[@SnehasisGhosh01]

Same for me. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

[@pixeldot7171]

if i am gaming with a PC , do i follow the PC settings or the Gaming settings of the video

[@RTINGSdotcom]

If you want proper 4:4:4 while using this TV as a monitor, you'll want to make sure both PC Mode and Game mode are enable for the QN85A and for the QN90A make sure you set the input to 'PC' then have it in game mode as well. Otherwise, you could also check out the pc gaming section of our recommended settings: www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/qn85a-qled/settings Hope this helps!

No picture quality setting changes suggested for game mode?

[@RTINGSdotcom]

If you want, you can copy our SDR settings over to the Game Mode if you want the more accurate picture.

[@hruthvik]

film maker mode is really good man

[@snkneo-geo933]

Is it best to put the TV on standby when your not using it or knock the plug off On the wall?

[@RTINGSdotcom]

For the most part, it shouldn't make much of a difference. If you look at it from an energy saving standpoint, it'll be more efficient if you unplug the TV, but probably not by much. Also, some TVs perform software upgrades at night, so you may miss some of them if you're constantly unplugging your TV at night. Ultimately, it's your choice, but either option is fine!

[@devinnguyen258]

Can you tell me which brightness setting level would make SDR content at 100 cd/m^2 on this QN90A? Also I saw on your website the best setting for this TV is with Local Dimming leave on "High", but in the video you said should leave it on "Standard", so which one is correct for SDR contents? Thanks

[@RTINGSdotcom]

We calibrate as close as we can do 100 nits, so whatever we recommend in our video/settings page would be the recommendation! As for local dimming, our recommendation can change as the TV receives firmware updates, so the information in our review on our website would be the most up to date review!

[@pgtips7818]

I have just bought the 50 QN94A managed to get a good picture on the Freeview HD channels in standard mode but if I put the TV in movie mode on freeview HD the reds turn to orange I can’t get any reds at all is that normal ?
