![]() ![]() But Dolby Vision is an even better version of HDR, and it’s something that Xbox Series X/S is getting support for. It can do variable refresh rate and the aforementioned automatic low latency mode for Game Mode. Again, that’s not something I ever noticed when consuming real content.įinally, the QN90A’s biggest flaw is that it doesn’t support Dolby Vision. I noticed some banding in a color test, but I’ve never seen anything like that during video playback or during gameplay.Īlso the screen has decent uniformity, but I noticed some vignetting around the corners during the uniform gray test. The picture quality’s biggest downfalls are really only noticeable in synthetic scenarios. In fact, if you primarily play in a room with a lot of windows that gets a lot of sunlight, I think you definitely have to go with a Samsung. And it also ensures that the display works well in a dark room or a bright room. What this means is that QN90A is going to make your HDR games look fantastic. It’s also extremely bright for SDR content. ![]() That tracks with what I’m seeing - although I cannot measure it myself. According to RTings, the display hits 1,862 nits in game mode and 1,800 nits in HDR brightness in other modes. That blooming is a little bit more noticeable in the game mode, which you can see below.īut then pair that excellent contrast with peak HDR brightness well above the gold standard of 1,000 nits, and you have picture quality that leaps off the screen. ![]() But thanks to the mini LEDs, which Samsung packs behind its display in an array of hundreds, this TV has great local dimming with only a minor halo effect. ![]() And you actually cannot easily turn off the local dimming. With local dimming on, you get a contrast ratio of around 25,000:1 for the Samsung TV. But when it comes to brightness and HDR quality, Samsung actually easily outperforms the LG CX model I have for comparison. While Samsung’s displays cannot compete with OLED in terms of contrast ratio and perfect blacks, the mini LED tech of the QN90A gets it close. In terms of pictures quality, the QN90A stands out for its really great contrast and stunning brightness. But the TV’s picture is so good that you’ll always want to get as much out of it as possible. I wish the TV had more 2.1 inputs, but if you’re getting one TV to go with your one PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X/S or a new GPU, then one input is probably OK. ![]()
