What customers say
The Samsung S90D OLED is celebrated for its exceptional picture quality, making it a benchmark in the 48-inch category. Its QD OLED panel provides perfect blacks, infinite contrast, and vibrant, lifelike colors that elevate 4K HDR content. Gamers highly value this display due to its 144Hz refresh rate and low input lag, confirming its status as a top choice for next-generation consoles. While the overall performance justifies the premium investment, some users find the Tizen operating system slightly less intuitive. Despite minor software critiques, the immersive visual performance delivers a truly cinematic and high-performance viewing experience.
Know before you buy
Yes, it is an excellent choice for gaming. It features a 144Hz refresh rate, support for FreeSync Premium, and a dedicated Gaming Hub that allows you to play console-quality games directly through the cloud without needing a physical console.
The NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor automatically analyzes lower-resolution content and upscales it to near-4K quality. This ensures that standard HD broadcasts and older movies look sharper and more detailed on the 4K panel.
Yes, the TV supports Q-Symphony, which allows it to sync audio with compatible Samsung soundbars for a more immersive experience. It also features Bluetooth 5.2 and an optical digital audio output for connecting to external audio equipment.
The Tizen platform provides access to a wide range of popular streaming services, including Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, and more. You can also use the interface to manage smart home devices and access Samsung's suite of daily productivity tools.
While OLED technology is prized for its perfect blacks and infinite contrast, it performs best in controlled lighting. However, the S90D includes features like Adaptive Picture to help maintain visibility and color accuracy even as ambient light levels change throughout the day.
The TV comes with a tabletop stand included in the box, but it is also fully wall-mountable. Its slim profile makes it a great candidate for a flush-mount installation if you prefer a clean, minimalist look.
