![]() Like all Samsung TVs the QN90B has Samsung's new gaming hub, which connects to cloud gaming services including Xbox Game Pass, Google Stadia, Nvidia GeForce Now and Amazon Luna. ![]() Unlike the Q60B, however, I didn't encounter any lag with the QN90B - responses were plenty quick.Ī new feature for 2022 is Samsung's game hub, which features cloud gaming from services like Xbox Game Pass and Google Stadia, as well as quick access to connected video game consoles. ![]() I'm still partial to Roku TV for its simplicity, and this iteration of Samsung's TV menus is the opposite. All the options can be fun to explore, but overall the menu looks dated and feels less personal than Google TV on Sony, for example. Too much screen real estate is wasted with ads, clutter and items I don't care about, while many useful functions are buried deep in sub-menus. I went through my complaints with Samsung's new 2022 TV menu design in my Q60B review so I'll mention them only briefly here. I love that it's rechargeable rather than reliant on batteries, and you can top it off via USB-C, the solar cell on the back or RF harvesting. The keys are well-placed, pleasantly sparse and lack garish colors, the raised volume and channel bars are a nice change from standard buttons and the metallic, wraparound finish feels high-end. Samsung's sleek, rounded remote is my favorite TV clicker overall thanks to superior form and function. The clicker includes voice access via the mic button as well as streaming shortcuts keys. The flagship 8K QN900B has better local dimming than the QN90B and should deliver a superior picture, but it's more than twice as expensive. Samsung also charges more for its 8K series, but we don't think it's worth paying extra for that higher resolution. Samsung does offer a more expensive 4K model, the QN95B, but its main perk over the QN90B is a separate OneConnect box for the inputs that allows you to run a single cable to the TV. ![]() Its main improvement over the less expensive QN85B is better local dimming, according to the spec sheet. ![]() The QN90B sits at the high-end of Samsung's 4K Neo QLED TV line for 2022. All sizes have similar specs and should provide similar picture quality. I performed a hands-on evaluation of the 65-inch QN90B but this review also applies to the other screen sizes in the series. ![]()
