Samsung QN85B (2022) Series

Image remains accurate at an angle. Completely judder-free from all sources. Upscales lower resolution content well. Fantastic peak brightness in HDR. Fast response time. Exceptional low input lag. Bright enough to overcome glare in a bright room....

Struggles to differentiate black tones ; No Dolby Vision HDR (again) ; Smart TV interface has gone backwards

Sleek design ; Infinity Display ; Improved Picture Quality ; Surprisingly good onboard speakers

Lack of 8K content ; Expensive

The Samsung 2022 Neo QLED Smart TVs are simply stunning in both picture quality and audio quality which are combined to provide a true cinema like experience in your home. Samsung has still managed to make improvements to an already excellent TV with...
