Samsung QN90C Series 4K Neo QLED Overview

[@kylescovers9833]

Just like black levels, there now seems to be an obsession with nits and brightness. We use to have perfect black causing image crushing, now we have brightness crushing. A great TV should have a well balance of both. I believe the QN90B is that balance.

Is this thing bluetooth compatible and all that? I have a pair of Sony WX-10005s (or whatever the newest series of their headset is called) and I pretty much use that for all my TV watching because I live in an apartment and don't want to disturb others

[@abtelectronics]

@Joshua Yes, this is compatible with bluetooth headsets. Those Sony's should work great.

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

How much better is than the A and B models from 2021 and 2022?

[@abtelectronics]

@michaelwyckoff7593 We noticed an improvement over the B series from 2022. We don't have any of the A series left to put next to it, but this one seems brighter, with better local dimming as well.

[@jensb.5897]

Samsung is also just releasing the G70C monitor, which can also be used as a Smart TV. The screen has very good anti-reflective properties. Since I'm very annoyed by all the reflective TVs, I'm thinking about getting this as a TV replacement. The only noticeable drawback would be that the sound properties are worse (no Atmos etc.). Therefore, the 90C would also be a possibility if the anti-reflective coating has become better than the 90B. Is that the case? I would be grateful for feedback

[@abtelectronics]

@jensb.5897 We found it to be better on the QN90C than the 90B, but you can still see some rainbowing in dark scenes. As far as handling the reflections though, it does a very good job.

[@jensb.5897]

@@abtelectronics Thank you very much. No, I'm not in the mood for rainbows. Since I've heard good things about the G70c, which has a matte display, I'll give it a shot; it's a monitor, but since it comes with Samsung's TV-Plus app, I can use it to access all the providers I'm interested in just as well. And he even has HDMI earc, so I can connect my Firestick via soundbar.

[@Belgarath777]

I'm so confused about this rainbow effect. I have a 2018 Q9FN 75" and it handles reflections pretty well without any rainbows, even if the viewing angle isn't great. With the rainbow effect, is it even with ambient light coming in through the window? Will it occur if there is no light above the TV and no light in front of the TV? If there is a light to the side of the TV, but it is literally 90 degrees off to the side so that it isn't at all shining on the TV, will there still be a rainbow? Is the rainbow just unavoidable? On a side note, I really wish you guys shipped to Guadalajara, Mexico. Sometimes on your website it says you do ship internationally, other times like now it says only in the US. I know that there are a couple of Samsung online dealers that do ship internationally, but you guys have a good reputation.

Hi, can you please comment if there has been any improvements regarding the dreaded screen rainbow effect that was much criticized in the qn90b and QN95B? In those two last year models the 55+ inch sizes had horrible rainbows across the screen even with lights that were not even in front of the tv. Did you see anything like that in this new qn90c? I hope they improved the coating this year. Thank you

[@abtelectronics]

@adrianmorales425 We really only noticed any kind of rainbow effect when the TV was off and there were bright lights shining on the screen. Otherwise, we didn't find it to be any sort of distraction when we were watching content, whether there were lights shining on it or not.

[@adrianmorales425]

@@abtelectronics fantastic, thank you very much for your feedback!

[@sunshinecycling]

I saw that they changed the panel tech from VA to ADS for the QN90 this year. I think this allows them to drop the wide angle layer, which contributed to the rainbow effect.

[@cyberedge881]

I absolutely love my QN90B. I have the 50 inch version, so no rainbow effect. It's simply the best TV I've owned. There's just something so special about the image it produces. The black levels are effectively equal to my LG CX OLED. I've never once been annoyed or disappointed in the black level performance. The colors, though, are better than those on the OLED. Rich, thick, natural looking colors that are more similar to my plasmas. And the motion using black frame insertion is godly. It's the first flat panel TV that has ever matched my Sony 34XBR960 CRT for motion clarity and smoothness.

Will there be a video of the 50" version (or 43") since they're a little bit different than their bigger counterparts?

[@abtelectronics]

@waydown2552 It's unlikely since they're so close in features. The 43 and 50 can process 4k up to 144Hz if you're using a compatible PC, the motion processing is slightly different, and the audio is better on the larger sizes, but you likely won't see much of a difference in the picture quality. That being said, if we get the opportunity to compare the sizes in a video we'll try to make one to show these differences off.

Do you guys happen to know any information about the new feature they supposed to have called "Auto HDR Remastering". It doesn't seem to exist as an option in picture mode. Is it always on with no choice to turn on or off? Is it coming later via firmware? Would seem odd to me if it's forced on behind the scenes (so to speak) without option to use it or not. If you have the ability to go into service menu you could see how many dimming zones the TV have. That would be great. Lots of speculation if the QN90C has the same or reduced zones compared to QN90B from last year.

[@abtelectronics]

@loki76 Auto HDR Remastering is activated when you turn on the Intelligent Mode, so you can't turn it on and off as an individual feature.
