I have a LG C1 OLED TV with a ZOOM button that lets me zoom in on part of the screen, which I use often. I think Samsung has a feature on one of its TVs that lets you change the size of the TV image on their 80 something inch TV from 80 something all the way down to 40 something. I think this is a great way to not have to look at giant faces when watching talking heads, just change to 40 or 50 something marches, then for movies or cinematic TV shows, which to FULL SCREEN SIZE. Does this all make Sense? Know of any makes and models of TVs with these features? Thanks!

[@jonathanparle8429]

I use the cinema zoom function on my old LG TV to drastically reduce the black bar real estate on the top and bottom of the screen. What I lose on the far left and right of the picture is to me a very small price to pay. Of course I would not admit doing this to any videophile, let alone post on the internet for all to see that I do this given that it is considered to be cinematic sacrilege 🙃

On my 43in QN90C, Filmmaker mode, in SDR, does not seem to be an dimmer than Standard, in HDR though, Movie and Filmmaker are much dimmer, even with Settings tweaked for full panel brightness. I have to use Standard mode for HDR movies cause the others are just too dim for my taste. (i still prefer SDR content though)

[@Tibadude]

@@Mariarosa-id3cg Disagree. HDR has always looked like one is wearing sunglasses, at night... Filmmaker mode makes things too dark and has lots of black crush. You can not see any background details at all, or is always just s dense black fog. SDR versions of movies look far more realistic to me. Furthermore, I can not stand the very yellow color tone of Warm 2 they default to. Standard tone looks natural to me, whites are white, not tan/yellow. In the end, set your tv to what looks best to you, not what someone else claims is "best".

Agreed. This is 2024 now and you would think that all new TVs sold today would be sold with gigabit Ethernet ports and Wi-fi 7 built in. But, with most major brands now having announced their 2024 lineups today (except for Sony) none of them have incorporated either of those two technologies yet, even on their most expensive, highest-end models.

Actually, AR headsets and glasses like we are starting to see come out now will likely wipe out about 90% of the TV panel business over the next five years. Companies like Sony, Samsung, TCL, Vizio, Panasonic and Hisense will come out with their own headsets and glasses that will offer 70% of the functionality of the Apple Vision Pro for 30% of the price. Once those arrive, the TV panel business will likely be absolutely devastated as a result.

[@michaelbeckerman7532]

They don't tell you because they don't want you to be able to make your purchase decision based on a criteria that they don't think you should be making it on. Just knowing the number of dimming zones doesn't tell you which TV has better/more advanced local dimming capabilities. If the processor can't control those zones effectively, then you could have one million zones and it wouldn't do you a damn bit of good. This is why TVs with lower zone counts but better processors (like the Sony LED's) consistently outperform TVs with higher zone counts and weaker processors.

@@cronoesify Yes that’s the one. Hooked up to even the mid/high range Panasonic UDB820 4k Blu ray player it still looks real nice. It’s only downside is to get 10bit 444 chroma u have to mess about a bit with the settings (typically put on 24p frame rate) due to the 18gbps bandwidth limit, or make do with 420 if the disc doesn’t support the lower 24 fps.

The QN90C used to be pretty high on my TV buying watchlist but with Dolby Vision steadily becoming the premium HDR format of choice for most streaming services as well as making its way more and more to 4K blu rays, I decided to scratch it off the list. I know that to a lot of people think the exclusion of Dolby Vision is not a big deal, but if you're paying a lot of money for a premium TV then you'd expect all the premium features. I doubt that Samsung will ever bow to pressure and finally start to support Dolby Vision but I kind of feel like they'll start to get left behind if they don't.

[@michaelbeckerman7532]

Agreed. All of Hollywood is moving in the direction of Dolby Vision now. Very few films are being released in HDR10+ today. It's really just a matter of time before Samsung will have to finally cave in and support Dolby Vision. Now, Dolby Vision isn't perfect and it still has its flaws and shortcoming, of course, but it is what the film industry has settled on for their default HDR format now it appears. Samsung can only try and buck that trend for so long.

[@bpowick]

@@michaelbeckerman7532 it’s kind of similar to the old blu ray vs HD DVD battle. Technically HD DVD was slightly better but blu ray had more backing from movie studios so it won out in the end. HD DVD went the way of the Dodo. I guess it’s the same with any competing technologies within the movie industry, eventually one will win out. Dolby Vision is winning the premium HDR format race and if Samsung continue to refuse to support it they could end up getting left behind.

With that money you can buy a frecken qd oled that comes along with the best possible picture that is available at the moment. That comes from me who owns both the qn90b and the s90c, both 55 inches and let me tell you, nothing compares to a qd oled. A 65 inches tv like that should have at least 1.500 dimming zones to perform as it should. The 55 inches qn90b i have has only 504 and that's why it suffers during challenging scenes 😢. Yes the qn90b is still a great tv but I bet that if you compare the b with the d you won't find any major changes. The blooming is really horrible in dark scenes on the qn90b and it will be horrible on the qn90d as well. That's a fact I know from experience and noone can convince me otherwise.

@@TheNickoslicK Well don't worry friend, with a qd oled you'll have more than enough brightness trust me, I personally live in Greece and we have sun every damn day, so no matter where you are in your house, you will almost always be in a bright room, you can trust me on this one. Now of course those tvs are meant for dark scenes and this is where they truly shine, the rest is up to you of course but considering the prices, I would definitely choose the qd oled every time. Mini qleds are great but unfortunately they suffer a lot during challenging dark scenes and that will always be a big NO!! 👎 ⛔ until they make them better. If you want trust me again, the difference is chaotic, no matter what they say to advertise mini qled tvs as great they are not that great, they definitely have potentials yes but companies don't make them great as they should be, because they want to promote more the 8ks and their other technologies like qd oleds or mla panels when it comes to lg and so on, so they don't really care much about mini qleds as it seems. A mini qled tv must have a lot of dimming zones and I mean A LOT!! in order to match the quality of a qd oled, or anything else in this department. I like them too but companies must make them to perform better during challenging scenes. Trust me i was there and i still am sometimes because I also own the qn90b like I said, and unfortunately there is no comparison between the qn90b and the s90c. It's another freakin world. What I'm trying to say here is that buying a mini qled instead of a qd oled is a total waste of money, because they're almost at the same price, so why to even bother thinking about that??

Same shirt every episode 🤔

[@007TheReaper007]

Received a 43" QN90C last week and can't be more disappointed. The right half of the screen is much brighter then the left side. This washes out the colors on the right side. Also bad is the darkness in all of the corners and edges. Viewing angles are also horrible. I will be returning it and going back to my Samsung 4K from 2015.

[@ramonzaions7522]

On Reedit i see alot of this same issue! Looks like a software problem .. and i love the reviwers talkin About Samsung and sayin Amazing! 144hz.. vrr .. this q90c and probably qn90d have one of the worst response time ... ghosting all the way whit VA panel! Very very veeerryy bad! Plus Locall dimmim bugs and this Screeam side bug too! But They still gonna say Amazing!

[@TheNickoslicK]

It’s a guess,but I wonder if anything smaller than 55” version gets an edge lit led panel rather than a full back lit led array. I think I saw that somewhere. This could explain why dimming is stronger in those corners and some lack of uniformity.

[@idanbhastekar6332]

I got the same problem also

[@TheTechSwedePeter]

​​@@TheNickoslicKnot really. 43" and 50" actually uses VA panel unlike the larger sizes that uses ADS panel. The smaller sizes are actually better for contrast and black levels since it's VA, while ADS (just an IPS version) is better at viewing angles and glare handling. They still use Mini-LED backlight just that the smaller ones will have better contrast and blacks, which is what you want in a tv

[@CasepbX]

Had that issue when using it as a monitor. It was awful as a monitor. Also had this dark cloudy crap that's only noticeable in motion. I'm using it as a regular TV now and its fine. Although at times I can still see the dark cloudy crap. Using the LG C4 42" for my monitor and it's damn near perfect.

[@jonpferreira]

The 75” of this is only about $400 less than a 77” C4. Are they that close in comparison?

[@LNA881]

Thanks to the release of this TV, I got the QN90C for $1300 CAD 2 weeks ago at best buy

Good job you bought trash for 1300

[@Sumodeadliftsarefake69]

@@GanesanSridhar it uses an IPS panel which is garbage. Get the Sony LED that’s in your price range instead

[@tbone8839]

@@GanesanSridhar It has horrific blooming. Main reason i havent bought it myself.

[@josuexq]

​@@GanesanSridhar At least in america, 50" and 43" come with va panel, so they have a bit better handling of contrast, less blooming.

[@grospoulpe951]

Well, after seeing this video (especially about the brightness) and some reviews of PC OLED displays (eg: The Display guy) : seems to me that the (upcoming) 4k 240Hz 32 inches are not that good, especially at their prices ($1199 or more) Can wait to see reviews of those QN90D... 144 Hz seems good enough for playing (PC) games 😋😎 EDIT : 240Hz would be great, but using which HDMI ? 2.1 ?

[@kucuksamuray]

I can't choose between this one and the New Oled model. Can you help me choose guys ? Thanks

[@AdamMac27]

The big question I have is have Samsung reduced motion blur with their latest QLED? Looking at the video displayed on this first look - it still looks like there is motion blur. (I upgraded a 6 year old QLED to a 2 year old QLED. (The newer QLED, while having better image quality, black levels and colour has more motion blur than the older set)

[@BabyCowGoingmadinafield]

What's it got in store?,A big price tag.

[@JairoPL29]

My Qn90d 55" suffers of blooming and have VA Panel

[@Ehrle6969]

All led got blooming but va panel got less a lot, ur Panel is ips/ads😂 only 43 and 50 got va 😬

[@JairoPL29]

@@Ehrle6969 I check that the panel is VA, because when you touch the screen the point where you touch it lights up, the IPS never lights up when you touch, instead the blooming are bluish, in the case of the IPS they are yellowish. ..still, this year's VA panel has poor local dimming feature on the 55", 65" QN90D and the 98" model is the worst of all sizes. Models 43 and 50" has lower contrast and nits

[@chrisjohnson7255]

I want to pickup this tv and put it next to the Bravia 9 at Best Buy so bad.

[@amitavraja3385]

Is this model the top tier LCD 4K model or is it QN95D? I think the D model has more dimming zones and more features not just the one connect box from model.

How did you get it so cheap?

Yes how

[@uptowndoof3993]

I’m just curious what the difference is with the 90C and even the 90B (which is what I have).

[@razorgcy]

I wonder what the difference will be between 90D and 95D?

[@DeacanStJohn]

A german magazin did already a month ago a review of the TV. And they also said samaung set the bar high this year. For me it looks like a great tv. But as caleb said I'm curious to see what the other brands will show us. We will see

[@awaisqaisar6696]

Does 43"have wide viewing angle this year?

[@Telzrob]

Still not buying a Samsung TV for any price when they won't support basic features like Dolby Vision. Won't buy any TV that doesn't support Dolby Vision AND HDR10+

[@Rivs5117]

Samsung does support HDR10+

[@Telzrob]

@@Rivs5117 I know, but they don't sorry Dolby Vision. The standard most services and studios support. And as I said, I won't buy a TV without BOTH.

[@mateusl.5994]

I was thinking about getting the 65-inch QN90C, but now with this new release, I'm unsure. Are the improvements on the TV really worth it compared to the QN90C?

[@calgary2800]

No! you can buy the Qn90C for a substantial price discount now. I have the QN90C and its outstanding. I just wish I had more time to enjoy it.

If prices were reasonable.. this could be the best Samsung series
