Is 8K worth it on an 85-inch TV?

At this size you sit close enough that 8K upscaling can look sharper than 4K, especially with good sources. Native 8K video is still rare, so most of the benefit comes from processing.

How does it compare with Samsung's 4K Neo QLED sets?

Both share the bright Neo QLED panel and glare-free coating. This model adds 8K resolution and the top-tier processing, while the 4K sets cost less and are easier to feed with content.

Does it support 120Hz gaming?

Yes. The panel runs at 120Hz and the HDMI inputs support high frame rates, which suits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and high-end PCs.

The 85-inch panel is about 1.88 m wide and 1.07 m tall without the stand, so measure the wall and check the mount's weight rating before buying.

Which voice assistants work with it?

It works with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, and Samsung's own Bixby is built in. You can also control it through the SmartThings app.

You get the TV, its stand, the remote and power cable. A wall mount and HDMI cables are not included.

Our take on the Samsung Neo QLED 8K QN990F Vision AI Smart TV 85-inch

The QN990F is Samsung's flagship 8K Neo QLED, sold in an 85-inch size. It pairs a glare-free screen with a 120Hz panel, five HDMI inputs and Samsung's Vision AI processing, which upscales lower-resolution content toward 8K. It suits buyers who want the largest, brightest Samsung panel for a bright room and mixed viewing, and who will sit close enough to benefit from 8K. Rivals like LG's G-series OLEDs beat it on black levels and off-angle contrast, while this set wins on brightness and resistance to reflections.
