If you’re looking for a big-screen OLED TV with all the advantages you’d expect from that panel type (great contrast and response time) but without some of the weaknesses (e.g. lower brightness), then this television could be the one for you. The 65-inch Samsung S90H combines OLED’s precise black levels with unusually strong brightness (400-500 nits SDR brightness, and 1,300 – 1,500 nits HDR), effective reflection reduction and an extensive collection of gaming features. Its four high-frame-rate HDMI inputs, 165Hz PC capability, FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia G-SYNC compatibility make it one of the better large-screen choices for connecting several consoles and a gaming computer. It does not support Dolby Vision, however, and buyers primarily watching films in a dark room may find a discounted earlier OLED provides similar core picture quality for less, however besides this it’s a truly fantastic TV. Snap it up fast for $200 off the MSRP!

We’ve summarised below all the best specifications of this top-notch telly, going into considerable detail for each. If you’re still not sure it’s the right TV set for you though, take a look at the bottom of this page for more deals on different models and brands.

What we like about the Samsung 65-inch S90H OLED 4K TV

Self-illuminating OLED picture

OLED technology allows every pixel to brighten, dim or switch off independently. The resulting black depth and fine contrast control are especially effective with films, atmospheric games and other content containing a mixture of very bright and very dark elements. The absence of a conventional backlight also eliminates the halos that can surround subtitles or bright highlights on many locally dimmed LCD televisions. Viewing angles are wide, helping the picture retain its contrast and color when watched from seats positioned away from the center.

OLED HDR+ processing

Samsung’s OLED HDR+ system analyzes individual scenes and adjusts their brightness and contrast. This is intended to produce brighter highlights while retaining detail across dark and illuminated areas of the picture. Independent testing of the 55-inch S90H measured approximately 1,497 nits from a ten-percent HDR window in Filmmaker Mode. Results may differ on the 65-inch version, but the measurement indicates considerably stronger HDR brightness than many entry-level OLED televisions.

Glare Free screen treatment

Samsung’s matte Glare Free treatment is designed to disperse reflections rather than showing a sharp mirror image of lamps, windows or viewers. This makes the S90H better suited to daytime viewing and brightly illuminated rooms than many glossy OLED televisions. The treatment carries VDE verification for Real Black and Real Color under specified conditions. It cannot completely eliminate the effect of strong room lighting, and black levels can look slightly elevated when substantial light falls directly on the panel, but distracting reflections should be significantly reduced. This characteristic is one of the S90H’s clearest advantages over less expensive OLED models intended primarily for controlled or darker rooms.

NQ4 AI Gen3 Processor

The NQ4 AI Gen3 Processor uses 128 neural networks to optimize different aspects of the image and audio. It can recognize characteristics within the source material and apply processing intended to improve detail, color, motion and perceived depth.

4K AI Upscaling Pro is most useful with broadcast television, older streaming material and other sources below the panel’s native resolution. It cannot reconstruct detail that was never captured, but it can reduce rough edges and make lower-resolution content look more coherent on a large 4K screen. AI Customization Mode can alter presentation according to the type of content and the viewer’s stored preferences. Viewers seeking a more faithful cinematic image may instead prefer Filmmaker Mode, which minimizes some of the more conspicuous enhancement processing.

AI Motion Enhancer Pro

AI Motion Enhancer Pro is intended to improve the clarity of fast-moving players, balls and scrolling text. This can be useful when watching football, motorsport and other rapid sports where conventional motion processing may introduce blur or flickering around moving objects. 

Auto HDR Remastering Pro

Auto HDR Remastering Pro analyzes standard dynamic range material scene by scene and creates an HDR-like presentation with enhanced brightness, contrast and color. It can give older programs and conventional broadcasts greater visual impact.

Up to 165Hz PC gaming

The Ultimate Gaming Pack supports 4K gameplay at up to 165Hz from a compatible computer and graphics card. This provides smoother movement and lower visual latency than conventional 60Hz or 120Hz operation when the system can produce sufficiently high frame rates.

Current consoles are limited to a maximum of 120Hz, so the full 165Hz capability is primarily beneficial to PC players. Console users still receive the important benefits of 4K/120Hz input, automatic low-latency mode and variable refresh rate.

FreeSync Premium Pro and G-SYNC compatibility

AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia G-SYNC compatibility allow the screen’s refresh rate to follow the frame output of a supported gaming system. This reduces tearing and helps games remain visually smooth during moderate frame-rate variations. HDR10+ Gaming and HGiG support provide additional options for HDR tone mapping. Samsung’s Game Bar offers quick access to refresh-rate information, aspect-ratio controls, input-lag settings and other gaming adjustments without requiring users to navigate the complete television menu.

Four high-frame-rate HDMI connections

All four HDMI inputs are specified to accept 4K signals at up to 165Hz from compatible equipment. This is more flexible than televisions that restrict their highest gaming bandwidth to one or two connections. A user could therefore connect multiple consoles, a gaming computer and an audio system without sacrificing high-refresh-rate functionality. One HDMI connection supports eARC for passing compatible high-quality audio formats to a soundbar or AV receiver.

The television also provides two USB-A ports, Ethernet, optical digital audio output, Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. Apple AirPlay and Google Cast are supported for compatible wireless devices.

40W Dolby Atmos audio system

The S90H uses a 2.1-channel, 40W speaker system with Dolby Atmos and Object Tracking Sound Lite. Its dedicated low-frequency channel should give it a fuller presentation than basic 20W television speakers.

Adaptive Sound Pro analyzes the room and the content to adjust the audio, while Active Voice Amplifier Pro is designed to make dialogue easier to understand when background sound or room noise becomes intrusive. AI Sound Controller Pro offers separate adjustment of voices, music and effects.

The integrated system should be adequate for everyday viewing, but a suitable soundbar or home-cinema system will provide wider spatial effects, stronger bass and greater dynamic range. Q-Symphony can coordinate compatible Samsung audio products with the television’s own speakers.

Tizen smart platform

Samsung’s One UI Tizen platform provides access to major streaming services, Samsung TV Plus and connected-device controls. The integrated SmartThings and Matter hub functions can place compatible smart-home products within the television interface.

Samsung Vision AI Companion adds conversational search and assistance through Bixby, with separate access to supported Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity applications. These services may require a Samsung account, network connection and consent to additional data processing. Samsung states that its current televisions receive up to seven years of operating-system updates. That commitment should help maintain application compatibility, although individual services and third-party applications can still change independently.

AirPlay and Google Cast support

Built-in Apple AirPlay allows compatible Apple devices to send video, photos and audio to the television. Google Cast extends similar convenience to supported Android devices and applications. Multi View can show two sources simultaneously, which may be useful for watching a live event alongside another feed or displaying mobile content beside a television input. Available combinations and audio behavior can depend on the selected sources.

Who should buy this Samsung S90H TV deal?

The Samsung S90H is particularly suitable for viewers who want OLED contrast but cannot keep their living room consistently dark. Its Glare Free treatment and strong HDR performance make it better prepared for daytime viewing than many reflective OLED alternatives. It is also an excellent option for households with several gaming systems. Four high-frame-rate HDMI inputs, 165Hz PC support, FreeSync Premium Pro, G-SYNC compatibility and low input lag provide considerably more flexibility than the gaming implementation found on many televisions.

Film enthusiasts should appreciate the deep blacks and precise light control, although Samsung’s continued absence of Dolby Vision support is worth considering. The S90H instead supports HDR10, HLG and the HDR10+ family of formats.
