They don't support Dolby Atmos audio either, but they can pass it through to soundbars or AV receivers. Speaker of gaming, both screens have extremely low lag times, but only the QN900A includes Samsung's new Game Bar, which is a great feature to help you customise exactly what the screen is doing while you play and displays important connection information.īoth screens support HDR10+, HLG and HDR10 forms of HDR, though sadly neither supports Dolby Vision. The QN900A has four HDMI 2.1 ports, so is slightly strong when it comes to future-proofing, but we wouldn't consider that a dealbreaker unless you are an extremely hard core gamer. The Samsung Q950TS has two HDMI 2.1 ports, and two HDMI 2.0 ports. This means you can hide the One Connect box away, keeping your TV stand neat and tidy, or making wall mounting even easier. It contains all the processing and ports, and connects to the screen using just a single thin cable. They look effectively the same – extremely sleek, extremely futuristic.īoth TVs use Samsung's One Connect box for connections, which is a separate unit away from the main body (helping to keep the TV so thin). They both use a single central foot as a stand, or can be wall-mounted.

Right now, the main idea of an 8K TV is that it can be the best 4K TV you've ever seen, and both of these sets deliver on that promise. But both are capable to taking high-quality 4K video and making it look sharper and better than you've ever seen, even if it doesn't look quite as good as 'real' 8K video. Both sets include Samsung's advanced AI upscaling technology, though the QN900A's is a naturally a bit more advanced than what you get on the Q950TS. However, that's only in certain modes – realistically, you're looking at more like HDR peak brightness of 2000 nits, which is bright enough to really dazzle, and can make scenes look stunningly realistic when combined with the resolution. They can both theoretically peak at 4000 nits, which is COLOSSAL and broadly unnecessary. However, good news for the Samsung Q950TS is that both TVs offer the same brightness levels. The Samsung Q950TS is truly impressive for contrast control when compared to any other LCD TV – but the new technology takes it up a notch for the real image quality aficionados (and that's very much who these TVs are for). That's a big difference to what kind of precision is on offer for fine lighting control, and it means that the QN900A is remarkably close to what the best OLED TVs can achieve. The exact number of dimming zones can vary by size, but it looks like larger sizes of the QN900A have around 2,000 dimming zones, whereas on the Q950TS, you have 480. Having more dimming zones means the zones themselves are smaller, which in turn means you get more precision to this dimming effect, and less 'bloom' (which is when the backlight spills from lighter areas of the screen into dark areas, making blacks look uneven). Dimming zones are when the TV can literally dim the backlight in specific areas so that dark areas look truly dark, rather than grey (because they still have the backlight attempting to shine through the black pixels). The thinner layer keeps the screen svelte, but having more of them is great because it means you can potentially have more dimming zones to control the contrast. Mini-LED lighting means, literally, that the LEDs in the backlight are smaller (40 times, according to Samsung), which means its possible to have more of them in a thinner layer. The Samsung QN900A uses Samsung's Neo QLED image technology, which mixes the QLED technology it's used for years with new mini-LED lighting.
