Is the Samsung DU9000 98-inch worth it?

If you want the biggest screen for the least money, yes. It undercuts most premium 65-inch TVs and gives far more screen area than 85-inch models. Expect entry-level LED picture quality, not QLED or OLED.

How does it compare with Samsung QLED or OLED TVs?

QLED and OLED sets have better contrast, deeper blacks and anti-glare coatings. The DU9000 wins on size per dollar, not picture quality.

Does it support 120Hz gaming?

Yes. The panel is 120Hz with Motion Xcelerator 120Hz, and Samsung Gaming Hub is built in. Check that your console or PC supports 4K at 120Hz over HDMI.

How big is the room it needs?

Samsung recommends a viewing distance of roughly 8 to 12 feet for a 98-inch set. The TV is about 52 inches tall and needs a wide wall; the stand footprint spans about 59 inches.

The TV, its stand and the remote are included. A wall mount is not, and professional mounting is worth considering at this size.

When does it tend to sell for less?

Large TVs usually see their biggest promotions around Black Friday and the Super Bowl. Track the price history here to see how the current figure compares with past lows.
