Hey all. Q70D and Q80D do appear to be 120Hz native with VRR, but Samsung’s use of the Motion Xcelerator badge can be misleading since most use of that kind of verbiage in the past has indicated a lower native refresh rate with motion enhancement to “fake” a higher refresh rate. I’m still not entirely convinced that is not the case, and have a question in to Samsung to see if they will clarify. That said, the spec sheet does list a 120Hz refresh rate deep down in the listing, but not as “native”.
The Q80 definitely has all the gaming features of the high end TV’s. 120hz VRR and all the best gaming features plus has fald. It’s been that way since Q80B at least I know I own an 85 in. The Q80 series is an excellent tv that gets overlooked to often and can hang with the high end TV’s just fine. It’s definitely not fake 120hz it’s ledgit 120hz
@@FenixPajarito not sure what you mean. Did you expect it to be the next video? I can understand that, I guess. But I definitely spend more than 4 days on a review. Then it gets shot. Then edited. Then uploaded and scheduled.
Love this video format!! We need videos like this every year for each big brand (Sony, Samsung, LG) IMO. The basics of the lineup to decide where to start. Thanks Caleb!!
Thanks Caleb!! Now I am clear about Samsung's line of TVs. It would be great to have videos for Sony, LG, Hisense and TCL, with a summary table at the end... if that's not too much to ask!
Just took delivery of the S95D. Wow…….Cant stop smiling when I sit down and watch it. Everything I watch from Satellite, Xbox, or TV apps including youtube just pop. I live on the 13th floor of a seafront apartment with light pouring in from three sides. Not at single reflection from any windows. Anti glare, just brilliant. Been following your reviews on this and you made my decision to splash out really simple. Thanks
just got the s95D and i can say its absolutely incredible. You don't loose any picture quality because of the anti-glare. Pair it with a 990d soundbar and you wown't need to go to a cinema ever again !!
I am about to buy a new Samsung TV and was confused about all the different model codes. Your video was very detailed and extremely helpful. Thank you.
Very helpful Caleb. You cut through the complexity so well. Other manufacturer comparisons and a ‘once a year’ entire cross manufacturer comparison would be great if it’s not too complicated.
Yah, except his missed one glaring thing....the extra numbers and letters on model numbers are to keep the public from price matching the same exact tv across different manufacturers. It's a nasty filthy deception that the government nor any A.G. seems to care about. No one out there protects the consumers in America. The government are all crooks.
Agree. Keep up the good work. I would be interested in seeing the same done for other manufacturers. I'm in the UK and we will have models you guys in the US don't and vice versa.
Wow Caleb, this video is exactly PERFECT at explaining EVERYTHING that the average person needs to know about Samsung's TV lineup... Perfect, perfect, PERFECT! More of this, please! ...P.S. Retailers are often selling last year's model AND this year's model alongside each other, so I am often trying to find information on the difference between last year's model vs. this year's model (i.e., ADS Pro display in the previous model, vs. VA display in the new model, etc.), so videos which include that kind of information (like this one) are very helpful.
I haven't bought a TV in over 15 years. I just purchase SAMSUNG 43-Inch Class 4K Crystal UHD DU8000. I use this TV with an antenna on my upper floor window, some channels are very clear while others are not. It's a mix bag for me, I know you get a better picture with cable.............But I hate paying for anything.
Very helpful. Stores like their special model numbers because it keeps them from having to price match because they can say they are different. I believe that is part of the reason this started.
S95D also heavily discounted...at least for another day. I received $2300 (Canadian) off the retail price. $2000 discount and even though I didn't trade a TV in, I still received another $300 discount. Getting a $6000 TV for less than $4000 feels like theft lol.
@vincentvincent9576 I got the 75" from Costco for $2450 all in, but that included an extended warranty. Best Buy had one used for $1800 pre everything, but they had it out as a floor model for a month and I wouldn't have touched it with a 10' pole. Jealous of the 85". Maybe one day 🤣
I just purchased the 77" S95D and it arrives in 3 weeks. This is a long overdue (and huge) upgrade from my current 2008 50" Samsung HP-T5054 plasma which could only do 720p HD...not even full 1080p HD. I am excited making the jump from 720 (skipping 1080) to 4K. At the time that is what I could afford, 1080P were still expensive and 720 was common. Was still leaps and bounds better than the SD rear projector I had. Regardless of only doing 720p, its motion processing and black levels were leaps and bounds better than 2008 LCD's. When viewing the S95D on the showroom floor, I can assure videophiles when the TV is on it looks glossy and dripping wet. I was debating about going with the 85" Neo QLED QN92D just for bit of extra size, but with $2300 (Canadian) off the S95D it was a no brainer. Neo QELD's can do amazing things but as a former plasma owner, I wanted something comparable and that is OLED. Also FYI, my 2008 Samsung HP-T5054 plasma is still running solid! No burn in, no dead pixels, a testament to Samsung engineering.
Thank you for the explanation. It was very useful. I didn't need to watch the video 5 times or research for days. I just had to look up on prices, specs and available models after watching your video once or twice. I bought Samsung 55" Q80C from supplier on 20% lower price than retail price because I work with tech(have small store). It was the last piece available and about 40% cheaper than 2024. model. I am very happy with my purchase, and I plan on keeping it till it dies or I see some oled models in lower price categories, about 1.000$ instead of 2.000$ or above. Also, I have a 5 years warranty because right now Samsung has some promotions where I can register for an additional 3 years on top of 2 years, which are demanded by law.
Thank you for the samsung breakdown. Love samsung products, have a 2010 7000 series tv and s23 ultra, galaxy watch 6 classic, ect. Thank you again for this episode.
I've appreciated your videos on the S95D! I have been an LG fan for a long time but where I live now, I do get reflections from the windows (not direct sunlight, but mirror like reflections in the day even with my blinds closed which still let in diffused light). The S95D should completely eliminate that for me and your positivity about the TV helped me make the decision to give it a shot!
I replaced a LG with a The Frame this year and now I'm just all for anti-glare TV and One Connect box. Now my goal is getting the S95D for the perfects blacks and gaming specs.
Thank you so much for the information. I went to Best Buy yesterday trying to figure out what the model numbers meant. I hope you do the same type of video for the other tv brands out there.
Very informative video! Love that you have a segment for each model and explain. Would love some more info if the tvs are good for gaming (input lag) and watching sports
Even though I expect to be happy with my 85-inch Sony Bravia X90CL for a number of years, as an audio/video / home theater enthusiast, I still enjoy watching videos and reading about everything all the major brands are putting out every year whether I can afford it or not, including everything in this Samsung video you just made. Being there is not much native 8K content in the US, I think Samsung is making a mistake and for their financial benefit should drop their 8K lineup and put all the backlighting technology and processing found on their QN800D and QN900D in a flagship 4K model above the QN90D. Also, if Samsung was to acquire the license for Dolby Vision compatibility/support and add such a feature, how much higher of a percentage would they have to raise the price of their displays?
Still absolutely love my C2 that you suggested Caleb, it has been fantastic! Looking for a last year model from 2024 for my next TV! Appreciate you and the team!
I just brought my s90d and was wondering are you going to put out a video of your calibration for this specific tv or is it room specific?you made yours look amazing btw love the way you do your reviews !
They don't even sell Samsung TVs where I am living because of tariffs (Japan), but I just tuned in to see the awesome production values and listen to Caleb's voice and opinions as it is Saturday morning coffee time! :)
@@gsst6389 Sony, Toshiba, Sharp, Panasonic, LG, TCL, Hisense, and a massive amount of unknown Japanese brands. We didn't get A95L here, but have X95L. The TV sizes and remotes, and sometimes the actual panels and model numbers are different here from the rest of the world. For example, Japanese flagship 2024 X95L Sony TV remote is massive and old-school Japanese style with numbers from 1-12 and all sorts of recording box buttons etc. Digital 4K cable and satellite TV stuff is also on the back of the TVs, something you don't find in the West.
I had a S95C. It had some serious issues with my PS5. Every few seconds the screen turned black and there was nothing i could do but lowering the resolution on my PS5 to 1440 which is equivalent to buying a sports car and drive it with 25mph. I had no choice returning it and go for the S90C which has an awesome picture quality also. If Samsung fixed that issue with the 2024 Model S95D i will definitly buy it because the picture quality on the S95C was mind blowingly good!
Dear Caleb should I go for *SONY XR A90K 42'' (2022)* OR *SAMSUNG QN90D 43'' (2024)* ??? they both have similar price I mostly watch movies and sometimes sports or shows and will be used for the living room My experience with Sony's past model was Ok as it made it well for over a decade and a half
The S90D is going to be the issue TV this year. I just quit a PT job selling TVs at Best Buy on the weekends. Of the few 83" S90Cs that we sold, 1/2 of them came back. These customers were upset that the 83" didn't look like the 65" and 77" they saw in the store. They felt the different panel types were misleading. If the S90D becomes a panel lottery TV that will be an issue. I could see folks buying one, getting a WOLED, and then swapping it until they got one with QD-OLED.
Thanks Caleb! Great informative review for certain. I find all this information regarding new TV's to be very overwhelming to say the least. At least now I've got a better understanding of the Samsung lineup which I had no idea of before. I purchased a new TV yesterday, a DU7200D 65" Samsung. It was at a good price point for all that I needed at this time. Looks great and great picture quality for my needs. These other sets are super great but I didn't see a need to go overboard with the budget at this time. Thanks again for your comments and excellent explanation of all the Samsung line up!!!
Can we please have a similar video for LG and Sony TVs? It is so easy to understand through your videos. Samsung should use it on their website to improve their sales, if they ever need to.
Always great content and very informative. The only thing I was missing was more of when these TV releases? That would help inform of how long the 2023 year models are going to be discounted, and maybe even get a bigger discount close to 2024 year models release.
I currently have the s90d 77-in. I heard that the QD-OLED screens are easy to scratch I just looked at mine with the screen off with the flashlight and I have two scratches. I was thinking about taking it back and replacing with the QN90D 85 in or should I just get a replacement for the s90d or replace it with a QN90D. I am in the living room with light controlled environment. The only thing I will do is watch movies, TV shows, a little bit of news, no video games. Is the QN90d black levels almost the same as the s90d would I be disappointed with the QN90d.
Very informative video and this kind of thing would be helpful for other brands too. A couple of questions? Why do they have multiple model numbers for each line? Different features within the line? Then why will the S90D mix two different OLED technologies (QD-OLED AND WOLED) within that one model number? I would not buy an OLED TV without knowing which technology I am buying. They should be different model numbers.
Different models happen for lots of reasons... clubs (Costco/Sams) don't want the same national models as everyone else. They also make "B" versions that are updated with new hardware.
Is there a panel lottery for the s90d 55inch and 65inch as well? Have read reports that there is no guarantee of getting a QD-OLED screen with these TV’s
Another “quirk” of the store specific models is that there is an extra feature to differentiate it from the regular models or a missing feature to allow a lower price. The Sony TV models at Costco has the upgraded backlit remote. Plus you can’t price match because it is technically a different model.
Great videos!!! Keep them coming. Love your contents. I have a question regarding Wi-Fi connectivity for these TVs. Which brand TV has the fastest Wi-Fi chip/connection. I have a 3+ yr old TV from Samsung and I notice the Wi-Fi connection isn't consistently fast enough for streaming content nowadays. I have 600mbps network at home so I'm assuming the available speed isn't the problem.? Anyhow, greatly appreciate your input.
Love your content as always!!! Keep up the awesomeness you’ve been providing. I’d love to see the same content you’ve provided in this educational video for the 2024 line up for the T.C.L. , Hisense, and especially the Sony line up. This is the year for me to move up to the Sony mini LED. Thanks again for all the insight you’ve been providing. 👍🇨🇦
Not that it makes a difference to the consumer, but sometimes that special model number is their way of getting around business agreements with certain retailers. For example, Costco typically has an agreement with it's vendors that they will give Costco the best price, and they may face penalties or issue kickbacks if they sold the same model cheaper elsewhere. Another thing you may notice on TV's with slightly different model numbers is small cosmetic differences in a TV that has identical hardware, such as the trim surrounding the screen having a different finish. However very few retailers would carry both at the same/similar cost and would typically only carry on cosmetic version.

Are there significant improvements on this years QLEDs over last years. Trying to understand why I am paying extra for to get a Q70D over a Q60D. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the rundown, all the models are so confusing. I need a new 55” TV soon, I keep my TVs forever the current one is 10 years old. I mostly watch TV shows, Movies and sports. It needs to be is a room with lots of windows and reflection is a real problem. Is the anti-glare only a S95 feature or does the S90 have it as well? It sounds like it works well.
I just purchased the OLED S90D, and samsung said the only difference from the S95D is a control panel. You can use it on connect for all your hdmi and other ports. That's what samsung told me.

What a great overview. Exactly what I was looking for. Videos like this should exist for every brand.

It was at a good price point for all that I needed at this time. Looks great and great picture quality for my needs. These other sets are super great but I didn't see a need to go overboard with the budget at this time. Thanks again for your comments and excellent explanation of all the Samsung line up!!!
Can we please have a similar video for LG and Sony TVs? It is so easy to understand through your videos. Samsung should use it on their website to improve their sales, if they ever need to.
I appreciate your reviews. It helps us make an educated decision about buying our next TV.
I found this to be extremely helpful...if time permits, I would like to see it done for LG and Sony as well.
Great video. Still cannot get over the purple hue to the QD Oleds..
Start Watching From Here: 2:31 or 3:44
Always great content and very informative. The only thing I was missing was more of when these TV releases? That would help inform of how long the 2023 year models are going to be discounted, and maybe even get a bigger discount close to 2024 year models release.
I currently have the s90d 77-in. I heard that the QD-OLED screens are easy to scratch I just looked at mine with the screen off with the flashlight and I have two scratches. I was thinking about taking it back and replacing with the QN90D 85 in or should I just get a replacement for the s90d or replace it with a QN90D. I am in the living room with light controlled environment. The only thing I will do is watch movies, TV shows, a little bit of news, no video games. Is the QN90d black levels almost the same as the s90d would I be disappointed with the QN90d.
Get back to you again after all the other videos on the internet. Thanks!
Very informative video and this kind of thing would be helpful for other brands too.
A couple of questions? Why do they have multiple model numbers for each line? Different features within the line? Then why will the S90D mix two different OLED technologies (QD-OLED AND WOLED) within that one model number? I would not buy an OLED TV without knowing which technology I am buying. They should be different model numbers.
Different models happen for lots of reasons... clubs (Costco/Sams) don't want the same national models as everyone else. They also make "B" versions that are updated with new hardware.
I agree they shouldn't call them "QN" if the dont have quantum dots... QN83S90 - Q = quantum dot and "N" = North America.
@@Bl33dingOut yes I understand why those stores have their own model numbers.
@@Bl33dingOutN stands for Neo QLED as in miniLED not North America 😂
@@allargon you are wrong. QN = North America, QE = Europe, QA = Asia... i promise
Would be nice to see an in-depth comparison of TV's across the 3 major manufacturers, Samsung, LG and Sony.
VA is better then ADS
Thanks Captain Obvious
its not 😂
Great content!
Need your opinion ... QN90d or QN800c?
Love the run down!
Please do this on Sony TV’s.
Love to know what I’m talking about
Is there a panel lottery for the s90d 55inch and 65inch as well? Have read reports that there is no guarantee of getting a QD-OLED screen with these TV’s
This cleared SO much up for me! Thank you
Great video!! Very informative. Definitely gives me clarity in deciding what is best for me thanks
found this interesting and helpful. more please
Love your videos,Keep them going because they are relaxing and informative at the same time,Super well done Caleb!
Another “quirk” of the store specific models is that there is an extra feature to differentiate it from the regular models or a missing feature to allow a lower price. The Sony TV models at Costco has the upgraded backlit remote. Plus you can’t price match because it is technically a different model.
In the German Samsung website the s90d in 77“ and 83“ are listed.
Great videos!!! Keep them coming. Love your contents. I have a question regarding Wi-Fi connectivity for these TVs. Which brand TV has the fastest Wi-Fi chip/connection. I have a 3+ yr old TV from Samsung and I notice the Wi-Fi connection isn't consistently fast enough for streaming content nowadays. I have 600mbps network at home so I'm assuming the available speed isn't the problem.? Anyhow, greatly appreciate your input.
Love your content as always!!! Keep up the awesomeness you’ve been providing. I’d love to see the same content you’ve provided in this educational video for the 2024 line up for the T.C.L. , Hisense, and especially the Sony line up. This is the year for me to move up to the Sony mini LED. Thanks again for all the insight you’ve been providing. 👍🇨🇦
Correction , the Q70 and the Q80 D series are both 120 Native Hrz panels. You stated that these Q 70 and Q 80 d series were only 60 htz😊
Please do this for other brands!!
excellent presenter. great editing. who writes the script?
Not that it makes a difference to the consumer, but sometimes that special model number is their way of getting around business agreements with certain retailers. For example, Costco typically has an agreement with it's vendors that they will give Costco the best price, and they may face penalties or issue kickbacks if they sold the same model cheaper elsewhere. Another thing you may notice on TV's with slightly different model numbers is small cosmetic differences in a TV that has identical hardware, such as the trim surrounding the screen having a different finish. However very few retailers would carry both at the same/similar cost and would typically only carry on cosmetic version.
Are there significant improvements on this years QLEDs over last years. Trying to understand why I am paying extra for to get a Q70D over a Q60D. Thanks in advance.
This was definitely a great video and helpful to know what the TV lineup means for Samsung.
Great video, It would be nice to have the infographic show TV sizes for each model and panel.
Great video Caleb, please do more like this in the future. Especially for Sony when they finally release their lineup in the near future.
Thanks for the rundown, all the models are so confusing.
I need a new 55” TV soon, I keep my TVs forever the current one is 10 years old. I mostly watch TV shows, Movies and sports. It needs to be is a room with lots of windows and reflection is a real problem. Is the anti-glare only a S95 feature or does the S90 have it as well? It sounds like it works well.
This is great, need this for all brands.
It seems I'm not the only one that is experiencing this. I just did a search and yes...other people's samsung tv's are doing the same..
Thanks for the work. Can you do the same with LG?
nice! I'd kill for a processing comparison between Samsung, LG, and Sony OLEDs.
I do like the TV line up breakdown for each brand
Crazy how a few years ago, Qleds were considered top of the line, and now they're mid tier
Please upload video for LG TV lineup
I just purchased the OLED S90D, and samsung said the only difference from the S95D is a control panel. You can use it on connect for all your hdmi and other ports. That's what samsung told me.
