It’s very annoying that TV tech youtubers hype up every TV like they are much better than last years model when they aren’t

Total FAIL on RTINGS part. Do you realize that the 900 series hasn’t been TRUE 8K HDR 10+? Samsung 900 series used DITHERING for all of their 900 series through the C. Anybody using the 65 inch 8K as a computer monitor (the only real application of an 8K TV) would have realized this horrendous DITHERING problem of all 8K Samsung TVs. WHY AREN’T YOU COVERING THIS? This means that each pixel is NOT emitting 10 bit color… OR EVEN 8 BIT COLOR! This is obvious because in Samsung’s supposed 8K TVs it takes 2 pixels averaged to make one color for an image. What this looks like when using one of these FAKE 8K TVs as a computer monitor when sitting close enough to take advantage of the 8K display, is a checkboard pattern that very visibly means images look terrible, text has a checkboard pattern around each character that ruins the whole purpose of getting an 8K in the first place. What’s the point of an 8K TV if it takes 2 pixels averaged in color to make the image? And this checkboard pattern is visible until you move so far back that it’s the effective resolution of a 4K TV? If the TV uses DITHERING, there’s no point in getting an 8K. You people have to get your act together and let us know about this kind of stuff. Especially since it’s virtually impossible to even view the 900D anywhere. Best Buy doesn’t carry them in their stores so for most people hoping they are using TRUE 8K with 10 BIT color per pixel is to buy it, hook it up, then be crushed in disappointment that they’re still using DITHERING. Samsung should be sued for their fraudulent 10+BIT 8K claims. 8K Dithering where each pixel only has 6 bit color requiring 2 to make a 10 bit color image is NOT 8k and every 8K TV you cover should say if the colors per pixel is actually 10 bit, or 6 bit per pixel color like Samsung has been getting away with for years. I expected more from RTINGS. SOOO Disappointed. Oh Canada!?!

Sony also still hasn’t released a native 8K TV yet.. 8K has been a massive failure so far not even counting the huge premium pricing you pay because Sony and Samsung the only ones making them…. TCL and Hisense literally need to come in and try to save whatever the 8K market could potentially be in the future

240hz works on my 4090, although I don’t see an option for 8k 120hz.

Apparently the 4090 is only capable of displaying an 8k 60hz image, so even if the tv does support higher than 60hz, it won’t matter, This is what Nvidia lists about the 4090

• Up to 4K 12-bit HDR at 240Hz with DP 1.4a + DSC or HDMI 2.1a + DSC. Up to 8K 12-bit HDR at 60Hz with DP 1.4a + DSC or HDMI 2.1a + DSC.

I would like to know if 4k 240hz is actually selectable on a 3000 series GPU, or if it’s even possible on the 4000 series. I want to know if there is an option above 8k 60fps. I noticed you improved the upscaling score to 8.0 on the QN90D when the previous models were 7.5. Since the QN900D says it has the most advanced upscaling processor, I would like to see you compare it to the QN90D

Please fully test if the tv actually does 4k 240hz with no gimmick involved and if the tv is able to achieve higher than 8K 60hz

It’s annoying that they review tv’s that are very easy to find out how exactly good it is from other users on AVS forum as well as countless youtube reviews etc…

Unfortunately, we only review one size for each model, as we have limited resources. We have no plans to test the 85" model.

That’s a damn shame. I think the tv is the sleeper hit of the year for the $2500 price for the 85 inch having a VA panel, and there is not a good review online

IPS tv reviews are pointless. They all have weak blacks,contrast and IPS glow… Viewing angles aren’t even perfect like OLED’s.. Dunno why people justify buying them honestly, or care to read a review on them thinking this IPS tv is going to be different than all the other ones that came before it!

Please buy the 85 inch verison VA panel and review it.. It’s the only 85 inch VA panel for $2500 now that was released this year
