Which one are you adding to your home theater?!

[davidclixby]

Just got the QN90B and love it. Great for gaming and all round performance

[matth]

Really pleased with my 85B. Received a sweet deal on this one. Thanks for the comparison.

[PetrisonRocha]

Huge oversight not to cite the biggest difference of them all. The 85 uses an ADS panel, while the 90 uses a VA. I was hoping to see what difference this does side to side when it comes to blooming, especially off-angle, but sadly, not this time.

This channel has been helping me a lot in narrowing down my selection. - thanks!

I just bought the QN85B from Abt. It’s a killer set with amazing picture quality.

[ArunSinghDhaliwal]

Don't know why but the 85b here looks more better than 90B in this video 😅

[sdotg]

Great video! Thanks a lot for the comparison on these!

The 90b was on sale for the same price as the 85 at a retailer, ended up with that since a similar oled is like 2x the price and captions would cause burn in (captions on a chrome cast don’t move and take up enough tv space to still be an issue)

[hosamelbrens]

just bought a qn90b and I'm impressive with this tv in my ps5 and films and anything if you are confused about one of those TVs my advice go for qn90b

[abhijitmohite]

Best value for money is Qn85B, good colors ( not washed out with over brightness), nice viewing angle, good price, you get all as a TV

[lavithhcm]

QN85B FTW.... cuz QN90B just smears that light reflection into smaller rainbow across entire screen due to wide angle layer coating. Depends on your lighting configuration around the TV, it can be very distracting with light smearing.

[JimLigon]

Right now on Amazon there is only a $100 difference between the 65-inch model of these two TVs. With that in mind, the Samsung Q90B is on my wish list for future purchase within the next month or two. I have had my Samsung UN46C8000 3D HDTV for over 11 years now. It's time for me to move on to 4K. LOL!

However, I will never get rid of that TV until it stops working. It still looks great for a 1080p HDTV.

For the 65” size it’s a 500 $ difference in price between those two. 85b costs 1500 $ while the 90B is 2000 $. Do you this it is worth to pay 500 $ more ?

[Devintandy]

nice side by side comparison was very helpful in my decision for a purchase.

[StrTrvUtn]

There are conflicting sources on what kind of panel each uses, IPS or VA. I've seen both on forums and websites that the QN85B uses a VA and IPS panel, while I'm pretty certain the QN90B uses a VA panel. I've also heard that only the 85" sizes of all models use the VA panel while 75" and under uses IPS. Which is true?

[albd]

I've been watching videos about these two TV's and can still not decide whether it's worth me paying the extra $500 for the QN90B. Tough one.

[TheMrKlassy]

The glare on the 90b I just got is so bad I'm thinking about returning it. It smears any source of light in the room across the entire screen... why is no one mentioning this in their reviews? I'd rather deal with reflections than this smearing across the whole screen. Might as well get an OLED if you have to watch in a dark room.

[stephenperry]

Awesome video and I love the intro music 🔥

[barryjones]

Is it true that the ADS panel has better colour (though how much better?) than the VA panel especially for brighter colours and the VA panel has better contrast (how much better?) and so less blooming on angle and off for HDR?

Just wondering which LCD panel type would be better for a 43 inch monitor (close up viewing) do you think? Since I've got the 43" VA panel 90B that doesn't have a wide viewing angle layer, so the edges of the screen wash out in colour and brightness a bit, just wondering for close up viewing for a PC would the ADS panel be better since it also has the benefit of a RGB pixel layout since the VA has a BGR which would make it more suitable for text rendering.

Wouldn't it make more sense now to use an ADS/IPS panel for a large/small monitor/tv? But you would take a hit in contrast I believe but how much difference is there with over 8000:1 now on the 85B! vs over 20, 000:1 on the 43" 90B? I wonder is the contrast/blooming much worse when viewing straight on in a dimly lit room compared to the 90B?
