Our take on the Samsung QN85QN90D

The QN90D is Samsung's 2024 flagship 4K Neo QLED, sold here in the 85-inch size. It uses a mini-LED backlight with local dimming for high brightness and strong HDR punch, and it carries four HDMI 2.1 ports with VRR and eARC for consoles and soundbars. Reviewers rate it among the brightest, most anti-glare LCDs you can buy, which suits bright rooms and sports; its main rivals are Sony's Bravia 9 and LG's G4, which beat it on black-level precision and off-angle viewing. Owners like the matte screen and the slim wall-mount profile but complain about the one-connect box, the remote and occasional blooming.

Questions and answers

Is the QN90D good for a bright room?

Yes. Its high brightness and matte anti-glare coating are its main strengths, and reviewers say it holds up better than OLED in sunlit rooms.

Does it support Dolby Vision?

No. It supports HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG, but not Dolby Vision, so Dolby Vision discs and streams play as standard HDR10.

Is it good for PS5 and Xbox Series X?

Yes. It has four HDMI 2.1 ports with 4K/120Hz, VRR and eARC, and reviewers measure low input lag in game mode.

How does it compare with OLED TVs?

It gets much brighter and resists glare better, but OLEDs beat it on black levels, blooming and off-angle viewing.

Can it be wall mounted?

Yes. It supports VESA mounts and the panel is about 1.1 inches deep without the stand, so it sits close to the wall.

What is the One Connect box?

It is a separate box that carries the inputs and connects to the TV by a single cable, which helps with wall mounting but adds setup steps.
