Our take on the Samsung QN65QN90AA Neo QLED 4K Smart TV (2021)
The Samsung QN90AA is a 2021 65-inch Neo QLED 4K TV using mini-LED backlighting with quantum dots. It stands out for very high brightness, strong anti-glare handling and wide viewing angles for an LCD, which suits bright living rooms and sports. Against OLED rivals it trades perfect blacks and per-pixel contrast for punchier highlights and no burn-in risk, while Sony and LG LCD sets of the same year are usually judged closer on dark-scene detail. Reviewers rate it highly overall but note blooming around bright objects on dark backgrounds and a bulky design.
- Very high peak brightness for HDR
- Mini-LED backlight with strong local dimming
- Wide viewing angles for an LCD
- Four HDMI inputs, one with 4K 120Hz and VRR
- Anti-glare coating handles reflections well
- Tizen smart platform with a wide app selection
