Our Verdict

Samsung QN90C/QN90CD QLED

Sony X93L/X93CL

The Sony X93L/X93CL and the Samsung QN90C/QN90CD QLED are very similar overall. The Sony offers better processing, so it can smooth out low-quality content better, and upscaling looks better overall. The Sony TV also supports Dolby Vision, a better and more widely supported HDR format than the Samsung model's HDR10+ format. The Samsung is a bit brighter overall, and small specular highlights stand out better.
