Any reviews on the 50" QN90A and if its worth it against all these Dolby Vision TV's if it were to be a VA panel instead of ADS for the going price of 99K minus discounts. What I make out is that it gets the OTS lite instead of OTS pro and Quantum HDR 24X vs the 32X in 55" meaning lesser dimming zones.
There is a 43 " version also in the pipeline but 50 is indeed VA, I found OTS pro more gimmicky than useful, don't get me wrong it sounds very well but without physical actuators placed in the centre/ back of the screen it is not the real deal like the Sony A90J.
50 will have lesser brightness than other sizes but in real world viewing it is very tough to detect between 1500 n 2000 nits, I base this on spending some time recently with a max 1000 nit TV like Sony X90J.
50 might have lesser dimming Zones but it's black level n contrast will still be miles better than others rival LED TVs plus it's a VA panel to boot but it also won't have the wide angle film.
Hi guys,
Still no Samsung senior manager from there head office has spoken to me yet
I have given them a dealine till Tuesday n then I will go public on social media platforms highlighting both the panel uniformity issue n there apathy towards customers.If this panel was as clean as that Sony X90J I recently saw I would have been a very happy n a proud owner ...
for 65" its around 2.5 and the 85A at 2.3..it tried looking at a lot of content for around 30 mins between both and frankly could not find any different ( but I am not a Tv geek !)
Samsung is giving a 10 year warranty on the Panel for QLED and their remote is a joy in simplicity.
the Qled seems to have a definite advantage over the LED full array from Sony...although between the full array Sony and Samsung ( forgot the model names) the sony was far better.

hello everyone. I am looking forward to getting a 50 inch variant of Qn90a. Few people have informed it to be a VA Panel. Can you share source of your info. Will really appreciate it. Want to know on what other things has Samsung cut corners. Thank you!
It seems to be a great VFM product after a long time in TV segment. Hopefully it will not be very different from its siblings.

Only bummer for me on the 50 incher, rather the arrogance of Samsung is the lack of dolby vision.

If the panel is indeed 1500+ nits, you won't really need tone-mapping and HDR10 should look the same as Dolby Vision. That is unless the movie is mastered at 4000/10000 nits.
Dolby Vision at the end of the day is just dynamic tone-mapping, but done by the creator instead of the TV's algorithm. The scene will only be tone-mapped if the brightness of the scene exceeds what the TV can do. Otherwise, the scene will be displayed as is.
That 10 year warranty is a joke, because it exclusively covers Burn In and that's it, any other panel issues are not covered.
Regular panel warranty is 2 years afaik, and 3 years right now as some deals are ongoing.
So basically 10 year number is just a way of showing their E Peen, when they too know full well the chance of burn in on ADS and VA panels is next to nil.
No, 9k cashback on top of that

The qn90a 50 inch is retailing on flipkart for 84k, coming down to 76k with bank offers. Is it a good deal? Is the panel VA or IPS for 50 inch size?

It's a VA panel. All 50" TVs from all brands are VA, since there is no 50" IPS panel in production, only 49" ones.
