It's better than the Samsung QN800A 8k QLED but still produces some blooming around anything bright.
#Tv samsung qn900a update
The Samsung QN900A has decent local dimming once you update it to its latest firmware. Overall zone performance hasn't changed, though.
Local dimming is slightly better than before, as the algorithms seem to spread bright objects across more dimming zones, reducing the appearance of blooming slightly. Update : We retested the local dimming feature with the latest firmware, version 1511 and updated the local dimming videos. There's less blooming, and it's less distracting, but there's still black crush, and the zone transition speed is still okay. It slightly improves overall performance from the previous firmware version, but it's not a significant difference. Update : After updating the firmware version to 1903, the local dimming received a score increase from 6 to 7. We got the brightest possible image using these settings, which was 1725 nits in the peak 2% window. We measured SDR brightness after calibration, using the 'Movie' Picture Mode with Brightness at max, Color Tone set to 'Warm2', and Local Dimming on 'High'. That said, it still hits around 800 to 900 nits with real scenes, so it should be more than bright enough to overcome glare in a bright room. It has a fairly aggressive ABL, so scenes with large areas of brightness are dimmed, as seen in the peak and sustained 100% windows. The Samsung QN900A has excellent SDR brightness, although it's not quite as bright as the Samsung QN800A 8k QLED.

We found that resetting the TV results in a very small increase in peak brightness, but it's minor and not noticeable. A few people have mentioned to us that the TV increases in brightness after a reset, so we also looked into that. Small highlights and real scenes are significantly dimmer than before this update, but larger bright scenes are brighter. Update : We retested the peak brightness with the latest firmware, version 1511. We retested the picture quality and the response time with the latest firmware, version 1511.Īn earlier version of this review incorrectly stated that we tested G-SYNC on an RX 6800. We checked the response time results from our most recent retest again to make sure they were accurate.
Upgraded the local dimming score after a firmware update. We uploaded the initial brightness measurements and uniformity photos for the Accelerated Longevity Test.
We uploaded the brightness measurements and uniformity photos after running the TV for two months in our Accelerated Longevity Test. The brightness changed between our initial measurements for the accelerated longevity test and the two-month update due to an automatic firmware update. We uploaded the brightness measurements and uniformity photos after running the TV for four months in our Accelerated Longevity Test. We added a note to the Accelerated Longevity Test detailing a recent failure of this TV. We uploaded the latest brightness measurements and uniformity photos for the Accelerated Longevity Test. While it's a great TV overall, it's underwhelming for an 8k TV with a hefty price tag and doesn't have the performance to match its exorbitant price. Gamers should also be pleased with its gaming performance, as it has a great response time, very low input lag, and variable refresh rate (VRR) support. It also has Samsung's 'Ultra Viewing Angle' layer, so it has reasonably wide viewing angles compared to most other VA TVs. On the bright side, glare shouldn't be an issue, and the reflection handling is excellent. While it's helped immensely by full-array local dimming, allowing the TV to produce deep blacks, the local dimming is only decent overall, with blooming around bright objects. Unfortunately, it has just okay black uniformity and a very low native contrast ratio for a VA panel. Like other Neo QLEDs, it uses Mini LED backlighting that lets it reach very high levels of brightness. The Samsung QN900A 8k QLED is one of three 8k TVs released by Samsung in 2021, sitting at the very top of its Neo QLED lineup.
