Some gray uniformity issues at the edges.

1,300 nits peak brightness ; Quantum-dot color (accurate and saturated) ; Excellent setup and user interface

"Only" 4K resolution ; Picture quality comes in second to Samsung's more-expensive 8K Q900 ; Redesigned remote control still doesn't have dedicated buttons for media transport

The Q90R is an excellent LED-backlit LCD TV, but it’s no longer a state-of-the-art LED-backlit LCD TV. As we’re talking high-priced spreads here, if you’re considering paying $2,800 for a 65-inch TV, you might consider paying $2,500 for a smaller...
