QLED TVs have long been considered to last longer than OLEDs owing to no burn-in issues. QLED panels have boasted of great picture quality over the years, thanks to improvements in precision backlighting. Samsung has led the QLED game for a long time and has also largely contributed to technology’s evolution. The brand is now focusing on making this technology more accessible to the masses by introducing the Series 9 QN90B QLED TVs. These are some of Samsung’s first mid-range QLED TVs, which take nearly everything expected from flagship models and offer them at unbelievable prices.
The QN90B TVs come in three screen sizes. The most affordable one is the 50-inch model, which is a great size for most living rooms. If you prefer something larger, there are 55 and 65-inch models too. The TV uses Samsung’s new Quantum Matrix Technology which offers significantly improved backlight control. Samsung says you can now notice better detailing across the brightness range. Contrast levels have also gone up, making the visuals really pop.
The Samsung Series 9 QLED TVs come with the best-in-class specs. Their 4K QLED panel support over a billion colours, which is higher than most entry-range QLED TVs. It also supports 100 per cent colour volume, which means you can have a natural-looking picture quality. The TV is also said to support Samsung’s latest HDR24X feature. It uses dynamic tone mapping and shifts colours scene-by-scene, bringing out even minor details with rich accurate colours and deeper contrast.
The Series 9 QLED TV is also going to be a great choice for console gamers. It features Samsung’s Motion Xcelerator Turbo Pro technology and supports a 144Hz refresh rate, which is higher than even some of the more premium-priced QLED and OLED TVs. Since it’s a large-sized TV, it is going to be perfect for racing games and multiplayer games. PC gamers will also appreciate the TV’s AMD FreeSync Premium Pro support. Samsung says this feature significantly reduces stutter and screen tearing, making gaming a buttery-smooth experience.
The TV runs on Samsung’s most powerful Neo Quantum Processor 4K, which with deep learning claims to create the most precise and adaptive experience. The processor powers scene-by-scene optimization and upscales content to 4K with minimal quality loss. The CPU also powers the new Real Depth Enhancer feature which analyses the picture and increases the colour depth for a better content-watching experience.
The CPU also powers the Tizen OS on Series 9 TVs. This is Samsung’s own OS which has now been completely re-designed for a smooth, smart TV experience. Its UI is simple and clean, making accessing settings and content easy. Samsung says that all the major streaming apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+ Hotstar along with regional services like Zee5 and Voot are bundled. There is also an in-built app store for downloading more apps.
The TV also comes with a Samsung Smart Hub feature which helps discover content in one place. This means you can now spend less time searching for content and spend more on watching it. The TV supports Amazon Alexa, Bixby and Google Assistant support, so you control your TV using just voice commands. The TV also comes pre-installed with Google Duo, so you can attend video calls on a bigger screen. You can also control the TV from your smartphone using the Samsung SmartThings app. It also gives you the option to mirror movies, photos, and music from your smartphone with a tap.
The TV is also designed to be the centrepiece of the home. It has a slim design. The device comes with a centrally-mounted stand. This L-shaped stand has a metallic finish. The rear of the TV has a matte finish which makes it easy to clean. There are also cut outs for cable management, so the setup looks clean and tidy.
The Samsung Series 9 QN90B also has ample connectivity options. The device has four HDMI 2.1 ports, all of them supporting 4K 144Hz refresh rate sources. There are two USB 2.0 ports for connecting hard drives or pen drives. For wireless connectivity, there is Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 5.2, which is a major upgrade over the last year’s models. You also get an Ethernet port for wired connectivity.
The TV also promises a solid sound performance with its built-in 40W speakers, supporting Dolby Atmos. The TV also supports Object Tracking Sound, a feature that optimises sound to the scenes, so you can hear every detail. There is also support for Q-Symphony which syncs the TV speakers with a compatible Samsung soundbar for creating a multi-speaker setup.
The Samsung Series 9 QN90B QLED 4K TV is fully-loaded with premium features. It is one of the most advanced QLED panels that renders a very colour-accurate picture for an immersive content-viewing experience. It also has all the modern-day smart features along with a premium design that makes it stand out from other QLED models.
