Samsung S90C Final Review

[@whoamiguesswho1054]

I have the Samsung 77 inch S90C and I love this tv for movies and it’s the best gaming tv I ever played on I don’t feel no lag what so ever it’s that good and the picture quality is insane no tv is perfect and I know people will find something they don’t like but this is a solid tv you will love

[@tri0xin]

Just got the 65" S90C at Video Only for $1350.. was gonna pay $1299 at Costco for the LG B3 65.. really glad I stopped at Video Only first. Looking forward to setting it up tomorrow! Nice to see some confirmation in my purchase watching your video. Thanks!

[@TomGeek1980]

A friend of mine was looking for his next Samsung TV. He looked around at many youtube videos and came across your videos on it. Because of your reviews and since you have the settings in your member videos. He told me he will become a member as he just bought the tv yesterday.

[@jessieb1852]

Best start to a review I have seen. Well done.

[@adamg574]

Thanks for the review, just got a PS5 for Xmas so it’s time to finally upgrade from my ancient Panasonic plasma TV. It’s nice to hear that the speakers are good so a soundbar isn’t absolutely necessary.

[@buk3628]

Wow, great review. I literally just got my s90 Wed and hooked it to my Alienware 4090 which i bought for Xmas. The 144hz is why I have Samsung a shot after I was happy with LG oled C1 few years back. I was skeptical leaving LG, but your review completed validated my initial impressions. Only of heard your last year through AM controversy. But I'm subbed now. You're thorough and concise, keep up the great work!

[@rockinfreakapotamuxs]

I like the honesty and the direct opinion, no bs

[@jasonbennett2651]

Just ordered the 77 inch s90c today. Getting delivered thursday. Cant wait!😁👍

[@Bannedconfidential]

Just got this TV for the Black Friday sale with my job. By far the most I’ve spent on a TV but I hope it’s worth it!

[@solidsnake5751]

Just ordered this TV… Do your member videos show your settings for everything on this TV? All the modes? I seen your videos showing your settings vs filmmaker mode and was impressed. Would love to get every aspect of this TV dialled in using your settings if you’re providing them.

[@antigravity19]

Really curious about the streamed cable tv performance. Seems like a slam dunk for HD and gaming. I might have to go C3 for the most common use case

[@kaeptn]

Does the 2. gen panel from the 77" S90C also have colder blues and purples compared to the S95C or is it the same as the S95C then?

[@chrismiranda5648]

Hey Q, I just applied your settings to my new 77" S90c...question, for your HDR settings, why not go BT2020 for the color gamut over dci p3?

[@dankamensky2315]

Thanks for the video I was indecisive about this TV but 10 seconds in made my decision like the to the point attitude heading to best buy right now thx

[@lazipits]

Two things, I notice the color and brightness are better when on the ps5 vrr and 120htz are turned off, also if you turn off deep color and turn it back on the hdr image has way more pop

[@hoylematt1]

I’ve heard the 77” has the same panel as the S95C. Is the one you have a smaller size?

[@Whitewolf_1186]

Super helpful review! Unless the S95C goes on sale when the new models drop in a month or so, it’s likely I’ll be going with this one in a 65 inch. I’m 60/40 movies to gaming, which had me initially considering the G3 for a while, but the colour vibrancy along with the other benefits of having QD OLED at this price point seems way too good to pass up 🤷🏻‍♂️😅

[@maatzey]

Any clues on settings to get the most out of it? I have just purchased 55” and I already love the quality

[@RiCH_926]

I went from a Samsung AU 8000 to the S90C and it blows my mind I'm playing PS5 on it That's really why I got the TV cuz I needed 120 Hertz and ALM and all that shit and it's incredible it brings the games to life like when you're playing GTA v like the water puddles like if you're going by the sun the sun gets in your eyes it's like unbelievable makes everything look better The color reproduction is incredible it's just an insane TV I'm sure eventually when I get used to the TV I'll find little nitpicky things but for right now the TV's amazing

[@CryptoJourneyKs]

How is the quality on upscaling sreaming content?

[@Trumpet1ification]

Question...Is the 65 inch S90C using the 2nd Gen panel if I order one now? I already have the 55 inch S95B but thinking of moving up a size. What do you think?

[@arlokkkk]

I had the opportunity of buying the s90c for 1439 but ended up buying the Sony A75L. It ended up costing the same due to 5% cash back. I will be using mostly for movies and youtube on a dark soon so I should be all set.

[@furiousgtz]

Perfect straight to the point

[@danielgrimes8312]

Can you keep us on a loop regarding the firmware updates?....cause I don't want my settings to be change it of it is for the Worst...

[@davidcretsinger9285]

Question for Q. If we get your settings are they for the gen 1 or gen 2? I've got a 77" gen 2 coming.

[@larsstougaard7097]

Thanks 😊

[@ximwise]

Is it possible to set this tv up without connecting it to the internet?

[@davidwhittaker1570]

Hey man, just became a member and your settings are great, thank you. Just wondering, have you published the settings for your S90C gaming?

[@deetsitmeisterjd]

On a budget I got the QN90C, too many situations where even if burn in is not an issue anymore, I play way too many games for long periods of time with static UI. Coming into buying a new TV, I was set on the C3, but my last LG had annoying issues and I know people have said Samsung is less reliable than LG. But one of my first LCD Tv's, a Samsung was flawless and I think it's the only TV I've ever had that's "died of old age" that tbing was like 12 years old.

[@PakoPnF]

Hello Right now if you had to buy one for almost the same price, well the 95B is 100€ cheaper. You chose the s90c os s95B. 55 inch on both. I really need your answer to take a decision this weekend. Thanks and keep it up

[@mrrjimm55]

would the s90c work in a medium bright room for daytime viewing with a cable box? Thanks, keep up the good work!

[@skywalker1447]

Hi, what do you think of the smart calibration setting for this TV? Thanks!

[@davidmichelmallais4525]

I want to buy a nice tv for my PC gaming setup im my living room (lots of glare) would an oled be better than qled as far as glare?

[@josephrivera8463]

Hey Q. Rumors s89c is same as s90c. Reports say Only outside USA and Korea the s89c is WOLED, in USA it is for sure a QD oled, thoughts? I’m guessing you can tune this to make it one of the best TV values ever.

[@dwarfy38]

Hi mate sales are on and I carnt find a s95b but the I can get a 95c do you have settings for this as I watch a lot of films tv I don’t game ?

[@SessleIsosceles]

If youre lucky enough to find one with a Gen 2 panel youre laughing, you can change the model code in service menu and unlock it into a s95c with better color accuracy

[@Zuny917]

How?

[@Andre-cj3ec]

If you're in the market for a 77", it's automatically 2nd gen, since they were not making that size last year

Does dolby vision even matter if youre using a receiver?

[@Pro_2A_1776]

Thanks Q! I was leaning towards the hisense for black Friday, but the price for S90c 65 inch is close enough and it seems based on your reviews a much superior tv. Getting next Gen Oled at a good price is fantastic! The gaming attributes are what I am most excited about. Keep up the great work and honesty.

[@IWAnimations14]

I am leaning between this and the 77" Hisense UK8. Do you think this would be the better purchase in then end rather than the extra screen size? Thanks

[@paulcarlin5181]

I am on the same boat as you and I am going to get the Samsung. I believe I can trust them more than Hisense to last. The reliability is making me hesitate with the Hisense. I bought an inexpensive 49 inch Sony in 2018 and its still going strong. Not sure I am confident I would say the same thing about the Hisense or TCL.@@IWAnimations14

[@harleypippenger3255]

I'm moving into my new apartment this summer and just feel the s90c has cooler colors compared to the s95c, but I feel with some settings edited it can changed. I was looking at the 77inch s90c though as it's guaranteed a gen 2 panel. the s95c seems just a lot more for a lot less comparatively

[@skeletorfive5585]

Does samsung S90c have a gaming menu?

[@Wolfiereveles]

Every time I see these in store I see a distinctly red tint to the picture, especially in black which you would expect to be 100% black on an OLED, right? I hear this is only a bright room issue. Can someone say why this happens and if you can get rid of it somehow? It looks terrible and ruins the contrast in the image.

[@TomGeek1980]

I haven't signed up to be a member yet. I know you have s90c calibration settings but is there anything for S95c? I may get that instead of the S90C and wondering if you don't have it for the S95c. Can the S90c calibration settings work for S95c?

[@steezy8369]

I've got the s90c and I'm experiencing noticeable audio lag which I I can't seem to fix because of this I find movies/series unwatchable, has the TV you tested have this issue or could I possibly have a defective tv?

[@llrainll]

How is the firmware?

[@RailgunNZ]

Ordered the 65" S90c best value OLED. The S95c cost $1000NZD or 33% more, don't think it worth it. Pairing with Q990C. Only going to miss the one connect box.

[@captainbad6282]

I have one question about the motion smoothing technics. I know many people dont like it, but i love smoothing games like the soap opera effect. How will this TV especially perform with 30fps games like starfield. With or without game motion plus. Will it be smooth like butter with acceptable artifacts? I come from an quite old sony tv and it did a great job. Now i'm looking for an upgrade and allready testet a Sony 89K Led and a LG Qned816RE and i was really dissapointet in the de judder quality in smootheness and artifacts on shows and gaming. What is your experience with the smoothenes in general and specific with 30fps games?

[@yashwanths4957]

Which is better Samsung s90c vs sony x90l ??

[@alpertosun3497]

What about burn in risk in this model?

[@yarmoth6]

Thanks! Liked and subscribed! I am on the fence between this one and the qn90c. I saw both at the store and like the s90c more for picture but I’m worried about my living room having lots of light They say the qn90c is better for light living rooms. But I hear the s90c is plenty bright. What do you think?

[@hansiflick6320]

Thanks for your Review! I see that the tv reflected some things in your room! I hate the reflect effect, can you recommend a tv without hard reflection?!

[@annex4398]

Samsung s89c is basically the same TV and on sale at Best Buy right now for $1799

[@TG-qe6dl]

Can u save hdr settings in game mode like brightness n contrast

[@s38lapy]

How is the Input Lag? PC Gaming and XBox was terrible on a, not at all old, 4k Philips ambilight tv. Even Forza Horizon with an Xbox was unplayable due to the Input Lag. The car went right like 3 seconds after I moved the stick to the right.

[@RiCH_926]

This TV I just got it Saturday The S90C and it's unbelievable this TV is ridiculous it brings everything to life I wish they weren't $1,500 but it was well worth the money I got the 55-inch I didn't need anything bigger than that and also I put the govy backlight three on the back of the TV to match and it's unbelievable All of it together makes it sick The only thing I would say I don't really care for is how thin the TV is it doesn't need to be that thin but everybody that seen my TV is like oh my god how how is it that then and I'm like it's just on the top it's then but on bottom it's houses all the computer stuff but this TV is fast smooth crazy man if you're on the fence don't be buy it

The Samsung s90c vs LG c3 in 65 or 77 inch pound for pound dollar for dollar down to these two hammmm

This^^^ I went with the C3 after comparing all the two. The picture just popped more for my liking.

I had the c3 wasnt as bright & colors dont pop as much returned it and got s90c way better in my opinion

[@glall3603]

Are you going to have gaming settings?

Does the S90C have VRR at 120hz for the ps5? I know it does when connected to a pc running at 144hz, thanks!

[@motownmaniac43]

Calibration video please

[@brads.9986]

Quantum all i do is stream tv & movies. For 75-77" under $3k, is this your most recommended over X93L in ambient light living room? What do i get with those parameters? Thank you sir.

[@shmoggy417]

I got the S90C as my first OLED and I have mixed feelings. The contrast, blacks and color are great, but I don't find it bright enough for gaming and the ABL is noticeable and annoying. Turning peak brightness to medium helps makes the ABL less noticeable, but then I find it too dim.

[@captmaverickable]

I have an LG C6. While I love it for watching 3D Blu-ray's like the recent Avatar Way of Water release. I was limited in PC gaming to 4K60 with no VFR. After experiencing 120hz on my PC monitor I could not go back, especially with an Nvidia 4090. Amazon just dropped the 55" S90C to $1297. That is cheaper than what I paid for the C6 in 2016. I clicked buy and they offered the unbox and setup with instant return if I am not satisfied. I saw the S90C demoing Encanto in BestBuy and it blows away my C6 in the colors department. Early OLED was all about matching Plasma contrast. These new QD-OLEDs are truly next gen. The C6 is getting the royal treatment and will be mothballed for those times I want to enjoy my extensive 3D collection. Excited to fire up Cyberpunk2077 on this bad boy.

[@troy1193]

I'm a C6 owner too. Love the curved screen with passive 3D. Sadly, the screen is blotchy with burn in, so it is time to upgrade. I'm either going with a s90c or an A80L, whichever 77" hit's $2000 first. Like you, not ditching the C6, it's getting relegated to the loft and becoming the kids TV, just can't let go of that fantastic TV just yet.

[@ahmadashraf3822]

What about stutter , all oled stutter too much, all people suffer from that but unfortunately I didn’t hear you speak about that , please reply quantum i sent to you to reply to me about that issue many times, I can’t buy oled because of that , ( stuttering)

[@Legenkilla]

Is the motion on this tv due to camera or ? I have an a90k and it seems alot smoother on this video game. But i think i play at 120fps on it. Or is it due to sonys motion handling ?

[@troy1193]

Sony has the superior motion handling, their processing chip is class leading by a mile.

[@user-er5mp3oi6h]

Hey Quantum, I’m looking at X93L, A80L, S90C, and C3. I love your reviews and comments. I know all the above TVs will look great with high quality sources, but I’ve been leaning strongly towards Sony for the processing, love Sony’s clean, depth images and its amazing ability of upconverting/cleaning up lower sources like KZbin, etc., which I watch the most, but hesitate because of your strong negative comments about Sony, as I value your point of view. Given what’s most important to me, would you recommend any of the above two Sony’s, or recommend something else? Your comments would be greatly appreciated. Also, do you have calibration settings for both the X93L and A80L? Does the S90C upconvert/process low quality well, or not so much? Also, how do I join your membership? Many thanks.

Was torn between the S90c, LG C3, and Sony A80L. Ended up going with 65 C3 in the bedroom and 77 A80L for the living room, couldn’t be happier. The S90C is great with brightness but the upscaling and processing on the Sony A80L for sports is and movies is what sold me. The C3 just works and runs games flawlessly. Maybe one day I’ll give Samsung a try

[@jamesgarrett6602]

Quantum, do you feel that the 77” S90C will perform the same as the S95C with regard to image quality and color temperature given the panel and internal hardware is the same?

[@JGQ01]

I heard since the 77 inch has the same panel it’s close to the same experience. The S95C might be slightly brighter in some scenes. The TVs would have to be side by side to notice.

[@whoamiguesswho1054]

@@JGQ01facts I have the S90C 77inch and it’s practically the same very slight differences and the S95C has better speakers, but who uses TV speakers anymore I bought the Q990C Dolby Atmos, surroundsound by Samsung which is better than any TV speakers lol

Very informative and honest review and because there is a discount in my country for the s90c 55" 920euros 65"1367euros and for the s95c 55'" 1019euros 65" 1499euros i would like to ask if there an issue regarding "raised blacks - grayish" when you have the TV in a lit room.

[@martinalvarado5440]

I have a week of using the A80L and I love it for movies/TV shows and isn’t even that bad for gaming

[@shawnaldqdrumpf3952]

I have the 77 inch S90C in my bedroom and an A80L in the home theater. For sports, I’d definitely recommend the Sony. Sony just has absolutely unbeatable motion processing and upscaling. Samsung only looks good if the scene isnt moving crazy fast. That being said, the Samsung will have far superior color compared to the A80L since the Sony is just a regular WOLED. If you want, quantum dots with Sony processing you have to splurge for the A95L which is a Sony QDOLED (that’s uses Samsung panels.) but last I checked, it was $5000 for the 77 inch version while the S90C in 77 inches was only $2300. Literally less than half the price. So you have a big decision on your hands!
