The warehouse variant sold at Costco and other warehouse outlets is known as the QN90BD. Note that with Samsung TVs, the six letters after the short model code (AAFXZA in this case) vary between specific retailers and regions and even between different retailers. Those sizes also have a worse anti-reflective coating and lack the ultra viewing angle layer, so they have worse reflection handling and a narrower viewing angle.

There's very little difference between the different sizes, but the 43 and 50-inch models target PC gamers and support a 144Hz refresh rate from a PC, and we tested the 43-inch model as a monitor. We tested the 65-inch QN90B (QN65QN90BAFXZA), which is also available in 43-inch, 50-inch, 55-inch, 75-inch, and 85-inch sizes. The 75 inch model has been confirmed to have around 900 zones, but we don't know how many zones the other sizes have. We updated the text with new information on the number of dimming zones. Updated text in Color Volume to better reflect its overall performance. We've also split the console compatibility boxes into separate PS5 Compatibility and Xbox Series X|S Compatibility tests. Updated to Test Bench 1.7 with an updated HDR Brightness test that better reflects real world usage. Updated to Test Bench 1.8, adding a new box for PQ EOTF tracking and updating our Color Volume and Color Gamut tests to better reflect real world usage. The color gamut and volume have changed slightly. We've switched to a new tool and updated our measurements. We discovered a flaw with the equipment used to force an HDR signal when measuring color volume and the color gamut. We updated the text in the PQ EOTF box, as the results changed with our recent change in test methodology. We've added a few relevant comparisons to this review.Ĭlarified that the rainbow-like effect in reflections is caused by the Ultra Viewing Angle layer.Īdded that we tested the 43-inch model as a monitor.


We uploaded the initial brightness measurements and uniformity photos for the Accelerated Longevity Test. Updated to Test Bench 1.9, modifying our Contrast testing and splitting our local dimming testing into multiple sections covering Blooming, Black Crush, and Lighting Zone Transitions. We retook the photo and updated the score. We uploaded the brightness measurements and uniformity photos after running the TV for two months in our Accelerated Longevity Test. With this update we've revamped our Gradient testing, added a new test for Low Quality Content Smoothing, and expanded our Audio Passthrough testing.Īdded the warehouse variant to the Differences Between Sizes And Variants section. We uploaded the brightness measurements and uniformity photos after running the TV for four months in our Accelerated Longevity Test.Ĭonverted to Test Bench 1.10. We bought and tested the Samsung QN90C/QN90CD QLED and added a few relevant comparisons below.
