Samsung QN90C QLED TV Review | Not What You Expected?

You'd think the QN90C would be a replacement for the 2022 Samsung QN90B, but on paper it looks a little more like last year's step-down model, the QN85B. Did the QN90C get downgraded? What tech went missing, and what's new? Is this the TV we asked for? I'll answer all those question and more to help you decide if this is the QLED TV you should buy.

This tv Really stood out in the store.. looked gorgeous

[@calgary2800]

Just get this TV. Had the 85 QN90C for one week now and its is simply superb. Just a beautiful picture and neck and neck close to being even with Oleds in PQ. Also no chance of burn in and eye strain with mini leds. I got serious eyestrain with Oleds.

[@keithzastrow]

Also thinking seriously about getting that same model in the 85" as well. What's the difference between that and the 95C and can you even get it in the U.S.?

[@calgary2800]

@@keithzastrow never seen the 95c. I think it’s brighter and more dimming zones.

[@keithzastrow]

@calgary2800 Yeah Aldo just saw the price. I'll stick with the QN90C.

[@robbiewhite2351]

I’ve had the QN90C for about 6 weeks now. I love it. I’m impressed with the upscaling and extremely impressed with the off angle viewing. The black levels are great as well. I’ve heard the brightness wasn’t that great but this tv is plenty bright.

@calgary2800 as I just bought, a day ago, I simply have film mode as set up, the remaining set up is out of the box. Please, if you have any suggestions, share with me. Especially for the white colour, is really too much. Shirts look like angels wings !

All the pro reviewers like movie mode or Film mode but I like the extra pop of Standard mode. I love my QN90C, such a beautiful image.

[@AleX-techlab]

Thanks for another great video, Caleb! To turn off auto play on the QN90C you need to follow these steps: Press the Home button on your remote and select Settings. Select General and then External Device Manager. Select Device Connect Manager and then Auto Run Last App. Turn off the Auto Run Last App option.

[@darrenlesage2420]

It’s a good feature to have with a ROKU stick. I bought the QN90B last week and the transition to this tv has been seamless, in part due to this feature.

[@Caleb_Denison]

Bless you.

[@rhymeswithcigar]

You can also remove Samsung TV plus completely, if you try and uninstall the app, choose the disable option (not remove/uninstall). This will prevent it from being an option all together.

[@ajmatt]

That is such a convoluted way to do something that should be pretty obvious. What annoys me the most is the input switching option buried deep under connected devices options and the lack of a dedicated button. Samsung TV OS is arguably the worst smart TV OS out there given the multibillion $ megacorp behind the brand. The worst part is that their cancerous OS is slowly metastasizing into their monitor lineup as well.

[@AleX-techlab]

@@ajmatt Then don't buy a Samsung display.. This is the way! .. To turn off auto play. 😉 I agree, of course, that it should be straight forward, obvious.

[@PhAtALTheKollector]

Just ordered the 85” QN90C today for $2399! $2549 shipped directly from Samsung! Went to Best Buy and after comparing to Sony X90L, TCL QM8 and Hisense U8K, that and you review helped me make a final decision. I went with SAMSUNG!

[@tedrackley6233]

Hi Caleb, quick tip: When navigating to "All Settings" from the quick settings pop-up menu at the bottom of the screen, you can press and hold the select button on the remote, and then move the "All Settings" selection all the way to the left of the menu, if you are a power user, which at this point, I think you are!

[@jeffreybush4587]

This was VERY helpful! As I'm now going to purchase this television, I'll be coming back to your channel for both specifics and learning more about how to get the most out of contemporary televisions. Thanks!

[@panagiotisefstathiou8148]

A review that covers every aspect of this tv, from unboxing to specs and general conclusion. Really like your way of reviewing tvs, i would note it's really cool and user friendly! Btw looking for this tv as BF is getting closer, prices are really high, at least in Athens Greece, and so do the lower budget ones from TCL or Hisense. Ηaving in mind burn-in threatening, mini led is the way.

[@noekivotos]

Δεν λέει όμως πως τα μοντέλα των 43 και 50 ιντσών της qn90c έχουν θέμα με την παρακολούθηση από τα πλάγια μέρη της τηλεόρασης ενώ στα μεγαλύτερα μοντέλα δεν υπάρχει αυτό το πρόβλημα....

[@markmeandering446]

Love the version of your review. It accentuates your strong suits. You’re very natural, organic, and likeable because of your humor and speaking plainly. The editing and format of this review seemed even more organic and natural.

[@edwinsandel7438]

Very good review which I certainly gained alot of info. I am concerned with the audio for samsung on the qn90 c though. You are the 2nd reviewer that really recommends the samsung sound bar for the tv. I have a Vizio 65 inch and the sound is fine but I wonder if the samsung will be as good without the sound bar.

[@likeke9]

Thanks to your enthusiastic unboxing of the TCL QM8, I bought it and I'm delighted. So no I can't see how spending a lot more is going to increase my viewing pleasure.

[@pojourdenais]

4:18 Hey Caleb, only the 43" and 50" models support up to 4k@144Hz on all ports; bigger model sizes are limited to 4k@120Hz. Otherwise, fantastic review!

[@Nerd-jd9hv]

This is true. Tiz why there's a much better manufacturer called LG . In fact samsung as of April this year conceded that LG won the oled game high end , and is now LITERALLY sourcing panels from them and focusing on image post processing and AI stuff.

Is that because the 43" and 50" models are VA panels instead of ADS?

Omg!! Thank you sooooooo much for doing this review!!!! I’ve spent hours and hours researching what 65” to go to from the 50” Q60 and what sound system I plan to purchase with the 65”. I was already sold on the QN90B but your reviews helped me understand the other options out there like the LG G3 or OLED route, etc!! You really seem to know what your audience is looking for! It is awesome!!

[@KC-lg8qf]

so what dd you deciide on?

[@MattyDaddy14]

Decided to wait and get the QN90C when it comes down in price. I figured out that as the main tv, OLED might not be the best choice due to too many hours being used. :)

[@KC-lg8qf]

@@MattyDaddy14 I went on and got the QN90C... After doing a few weeks of research I also came to the conclusion that OLED is not a way to go just yet.. especially since I use mine as a computer monitor as well..

Hi Caleb, I'm in the market for a new tv and plan to make a purchase soon( sometime between now and Black Friday). I'm considering a Samsung tv, like last year's Qn90b or the C if I can get a good deal on it. My question is how concerned should I be about the lack of dolby vision on Samsung TV's? Will I be missing out?

[@Belgarath777]

This guy is becoming one of my favorite TV reviewers to watch because he strikes a good balance between the technical and the easy to understand without being too technical. He's funny too :-). My only wish is that he would expand what he shows to go beyond the purists and their director's intent and show what the TV can do for the 95% of the buying population that prefers what just looks good versus what looks accurate. I want to see just how vibrant and wide the colors can get, I want to see how bright it can get and still retain details in the blacks on other modes besides filmaker and movie. I want to see a comparison with the QN95C, the Sony X95L, and the Sony X93L, as well as TCL QM8 and Hicense 8 series so we can really see if the price differences are worth the incremental improvements. He alluded to that with the TCL which helped me eliminate that from my choice as upscaling and motion are extremely important to me. I'd also like to see more gaming in action. It would also be cool if he made a video showing since let's say 2018 or so, how the picture improvements have progressed over time with a specific manufacturer, that way people with older sets (5 years+) can decide if its really time to upgrade or not. Anyway, another great video and helps with my research.

[@hometheaterman1424]

Hi Caleb how are you doing tonight? So my 75" Samsung QN90C TV just in a couple days Ago and I have hit the Panel Lottery. I got they Perfect Panel. I have absolutely No Blooming and Absolutely No DSE!!

Thanks for the good and honest review. Actually to go to full menu without all the clicking, or settings you just tap the microphone button or say "hi Bixby, go to settings" , you can use Bixby to go to any settings quickly without going through the full menu options. Makes me wonder how long you had the TV for review.

I’ve had Samsung phones for years. Still wonder what Bixby is.

[@yuvaraajas]

Nice video. I am considering QN85C 75inch. I see a big difference in price for 75 inch between QN85C and QN90C. Is it worth spending more and get QN90C or QN85C is good enough? I believe there is no big difference. Please share your thoughts.

[@philiphindson986]

Hi, what’s The 90c Like while watching sports like Football, is there any judder or motion problems, Thanks

[@wbarrick]

Thanx as always. Did I understand that the TV opens to the Samsung Home menu on powerup and there's no way to reassign that to a specific HDMI port? That'd be a real deal breaker.

[@user-qs5vi7bl3f]

Everyone keeps talking about the QN95C but it is not available directly from Samsung or Bestbuy in North America. Being that it’s July, I don’t think they are going to mass release this TV in the US (just to select retailers).Seems to me by default the QN90C is Samsungs 4k flagship this year.

[@irl-hdr4080]

I noticed that too. The Sony X95L is hard to find as well & only comes in a 85” size. I feel like North America is really getting shortchanged this year.

[@PAUmerica]

@Caleb_Denison , So then we know you thought it its out performs the Hisense U8k and the TCL Q8M by a little, but you ended up saying the same things about the Sony 85" XR-x90L in the end even though you were expecting to rip that tv. So which is the choice between the 85" Sony XR-x90L and the QN90C? It seems there are trade-offs, but curious of your opinion given there is a $300 -$600 price difference at the moment

[@TheBigbro86]

Hi Caleb, you stated that the QN90C doesn’t have the same anti glare panel tech. Does it have any replacement tech that will improve glare. I ask because retailers & Samsung still boast a anti glare technology? If you or any of your followers can help if appropriate it.

Question : I just bought a 85" QN900C Neo QLED 8K Smart TV (2023) and used with a Mac mini 2023, M2, 1Tb, 32 ram as a media player. Few times the TV asked to prepare the best configuration for this arrangement. Afterwords I often experienced a black screen for few to five seconds very upsetting. Neither Samsung nor Apple took responsibility for this. After I adjusted the picture setting configuration and the power energy settings, the 8k configuration on Mac disappeared but also the irritating black screen. Now occasionally when I reconnect the mini hdmi cable with the tv hdmi, TV asks again to readjust its configuration with the Mac for the best possible picture. Should I do that again or stay away from it ? MUCH appreciate your input in this matter. Thank you …..

Hello. Nice video. Looking to upgrade to a Sony or Samsung. Have a chance to buy the following 65" TVs. Sony XL90 ($998), Sony A80L ($1798) or Samsung QN90C ($1597). Thoughts? Suggestions? Thanks.

[@hpaula1946]

I couldn't find a direct samsung qn90c vs sony x93l comparison, as they are equally priced. I got the qn90c, but I'm a bit frustrated that the auto switching of the HDMI inputs is not auto switching very well or consistently between my Apple TV in HDMI2 and my TIVO in HDMI1. I had the Samsung tech support fine tune the Samsung hidden settings, but it didn't really help.

Yup, I've them both myself and 90C all the way if you don't have the 90B. Wouldn't be much of an upgrade unless you absolutely need to have the better TV!

[@KC-lg8qf]

how do you feel about the rainbow coating? Im thinkng about buying one

[@Lozin80]

@@KC-lg8qf when I had the tv in my basement home theater room I noticed a small bit of rainbow effect on the right upper corner when I had the lights on and it didn’t overly bother me. I ended up buying the LG G2 for the basement and moved the QN90B to my main floor living room the anti glare coating is a non issue now since the lighting is different and not in screen view at all. Overall it’s a great set if you can still find one.

Is the TVs picture quality and vibrant equal to the Q9FNAK?

[@Lucas-ck1po]

Whats your opinion on the ADS panel compared to its smaller brother with VA? The QN90C at 43" and 50" feature VA pannels, from 55" and upwards they are ADS. Both sizes catter to me, my question is, based on the panel performance alone, which would be more desireable? i can't decide

[@user-oq4rm5ci9p]

VA in all sizes in EU

[@Lucas-ck1po]

@@user-oq4rm5ci9p Well, in my country i have both. Im just not sure how i feel about the VA vs ADS panels atm. I know about the theoretical trade-offs but i have no idea of how they actually would look or "feel" compared side by side. I watch alot of dark content so from this alone VA would be a better choice but so many say the VA black advantage is only visible directly in front of it or in ideal scenarios etc... Dunno

[@user-oq4rm5ci9p]

@@Lucas-ck1po May be you better look at Hisense U8K? Very positive impressions about it from owners

[@tdome3000]

I have some questions: 1. Is the optical out still active all the time, irrespective of the normal output channel chosen (BT, ARC, TV speakers)? 2. Can you record a cable program and watch a different one at the same time? 3. Can you timeshift with just a USB flash drive, or do you need a HDD for that? I just bought a LG C3 to replace my trusty 2018 Samsung qled, but in all those 3 areas it's a big downgrade, and they're important to me.

Ear clip mic is what I've come to expect from Caleb and Digital Trends. You never disappoint.

Hi, if I buy this TV and the Samsung 990C which don’t have HDMI2.1, how can I connect my PS5, apple TV4k, Cable Box etc and not miss out on the 2.1 features? Can I just plug all of them to the TV first and then to the 990C or will I miss some features etc? Lastly, can this TV Remote or the 990C remote control the TV+Soundbar+cable box??? I don’t want to use 2 remotes please

[@techfeanology6437]

This tv does have hdmi 2.1. The 2023 version does have it. Q90B .. B stands for 2022... C for 2023.

[@0TheKingLetsPlay0]

This One vs TCL QM8 ? Thoughts?

[@toxicman21]

Very confused, we just this same model and yours has 5 Picture Modes while my picture setting only has 2. Eye comfort and Optimized mode...any ideas?

[@lordmxm]

I just finished purchasing the QN90C based on this review and your other review on the Best of 2023 QLED’s & OLED’s. I hope to God this Tv is everything you say it is because I broke the bank for this one! If you have any more reassurances… please pass them on to me because I need it after seeing what other people are saying. Thanks again Caleb and I’ll be looking forward to your response!

[@keithzastrow]

What size did you buy? I'm seriously looking at getting it in the 85".

[@lordmxm]

I purchased the 75” and I’m sitting about 10ft away and it’s perfect. If you do an 85”… make sure you dedicate an entire wall for the tv because if you don’t and the wall is cluttered… it will kill the entire look. Good Luck!👍

[@keithzastrow]

@@lordmxm It's 17' from the TV screen to our faces as we sit on the couch.

[@calgary2800]

@@keithzastrow 17 is pretty far, I would be looking at a 98. Its going to be very expensive unless you go TCL or Hisense in the big sizes. You get use to tv size very very fast. My 85 seems normal size now from 7 to 10 away

[@keithzastrow]

@calgary2800 Thanks but where my TV goes there is no way anything larger than an 85" will even fit. Stairs are to the left and a hallway is to the right of the wall the TV is on. I've had a 65" there now since like 2008 so I'm pretty sure I'll be more than happy with an 85".

[@markchristantaguiam819]

QN90C 43 inch and 50 inch are VA panels. Please make a side by side comparison with U8K in the future. Because according to Quantum TV, Hisense U8K's black level is the best like almost OLED, and blooming is almost zero.

[@mainsource8030]

Please, please, NEVER listen to a word quantum says. He is quite possibly the most toxic , lying , vindictive youtuber period. Just type in his name on youtube and look at all the videos calling out his lies. Ive been on to him since 2017 when he started claiming vincent teoh from hdtvtest was a homosexual fraud,his words. He called mr fomo a satan worshipper and quantum just landed himself in jail for something he did to his his ex wife. You can look all this up, as his name is on many of the call out videos. Honestly, if he just told the truth , I wouldnt pay any mind to the drama. but he lies non stop. His master calibrator claim is beyond ridiculous as he will calibrate your tv without ever seeing it.

[@loki76]

Don't bring up that clown Quantum. He's an absolute joke and a wife beater. Anyone mentioning his name should be banned almost.
