Our take on the Samsung QN85QN90FAFXZA
The Samsung QN90F is a 4K Neo QLED TV in the 85-inch class, using mini-LED backlighting and Samsung's top 4K AI processor. It is Samsung's brightest mainstream 4K line, aimed at bright rooms, sports and gaming, with four HDMI 2.1 ports at 144Hz and anti-glare coating. Rivals like the LG C-series OLED beat it on black levels and off-angle viewing, while it beats OLED on peak brightness and resistance to burn-in. Owners praise the punchy picture and gaming features; some complain about blooming around bright objects and the reflective screen in dark rooms.
- Very high peak brightness for HDR and daylight rooms
- Four HDMI 2.1 ports with 4K 144Hz and VRR
- Anti-glare coating handles window light well
- Mini-LED backlight with strong local dimming
- Tizen smart platform with broad app support

Questions and answers
- Is the QN90F worth it over the QN90D?
- The QN90F adds the newer AI processor and refined dimming, so it is the better pick if you want the latest processing and gaming features. The older model remains close on picture quality and is a reasonable alternative if the difference matters less to you.
- How does it compare with an OLED like the LG C-series?
- The QN90F is much brighter and immune to burn-in, which suits bright rooms and news or sports. OLED wins on black levels, contrast and off-angle viewing, so dark-room movie fans may prefer OLED.
- Does it support 4K 144Hz gaming?
- Yes. It has four HDMI 2.1 ports and supports 4K at up to 144Hz with VRR and ALLM, which suits PCs and current consoles.
- Does it have Dolby Vision?
- No. It supports HDR10, HLG and HDR10+, but not Dolby Vision, so Dolby Vision content plays in HDR10.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, a stand, a remote, a power cable and the standard documentation. A wall mount and HDMI cables are not included.
- Is the 85-inch size right for my room?
- At 85 inches it suits rooms where the seating is roughly 9 to 13 feet back. Measure the wall and check that doorways and stairs can pass the box before ordering.
