Our Verdict

Samsung QN900C 8k QLED

Samsung QN900D 8k QLED

The Samsung QN900D 8k QLED is an incremental improvement over the Samsung QN900C 8k QLED. The newer QN900D has slightly better contrast, gets a bit brighter in HDR, and is capable of 4k @ 240Hz and 8k @ 60Hz with full VRR support. The QN900C is, however, slightly brighter in SDR content, but overall the QN900D has the edge in every other metric.
