Design & Build: Sleek, Subtle Sophistication<\/strong><\/h3>\nAt a glance, the S90F looks very similar to its predecessor\u2014and that’s not a bad thing. Samsung sticks with the tried-and-true minimalist aesthetic: an ultra-slim profile, almost invisible bezels, and a refined satin-silver stand that subtly signals the generational shift (Samsung designates ‘F’ for 2025, skipping ‘E’).<\/p>\n
The build quality is top-tier, with no visible screws or messy protrusions. The 65-inch variant features Samsung\u2019s proprietary QD-OLED panel technology, ensuring an ultra-thin form factor that still houses powerful internals and a robust sound system.<\/p>\n![\"In](\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/In-addition-to-picture-and-sound-quality-and-gaming-performance-the-new-Samsung-S90F-OLED-TV-boasts-improved-performance.jpg\")
In addition to picture and sound quality and gaming performance, the new Samsung S90F OLED TV boasts improved performance.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nSmart Features & Usability: Smarter, Faster, Friendlier<\/strong><\/h3>\nSamsung\u2019s Tizen OS gets a quieter, more polished upgrade this year. The interface feels more intuitive, with improved navigation, better organization, and a smart search function that actually works. Menus no longer take over the entire screen, making tweaks during playback much less disruptive.<\/p>\n
The SolarCell remote stays mostly the same in design, but usability has improved. Quick access to recently used settings, customizable transparency levels, and refined on-screen elements all contribute to a smoother, more enjoyable user experience.<\/p>\n
For live TV fans, the built-in EPG is now clearer, and features like USB recording, live pause, and subtitle translation are more accessible than ever. Whether you’re watching satellite, cable, or antenna, the S90F is ready to enhance your experience.<\/p>\n![\"Thanks](\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Thanks-to-QD-OLED-technology-the-most-saturated-HDR-colors-appear-even-more-vivid.jpg\")
Thanks to QD-OLED technology, the most saturated HDR colors appear even more vivid<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nPicture Quality: OLED Excellence with QD-OLED Firepower<\/strong><\/h3>\nThis is where the S90F truly shines. Leveraging Samsung’s latest QD-OLED panel, the TV produces stunning HDR imagery with breathtaking brightness, color volume, and contrast. Peak brightness exceeds 1800 nits, making highlights in HDR content absolutely pop.<\/p>\n
In Filmmaker Mode, the TV delivers near-reference-grade accuracy, with excellent upscaling of HD and even SD content thanks to the AI-powered Neo Quantum 4K Gen 3 processor. Skin tones, textures, and shadows are beautifully rendered\u2014even without Dolby Vision (which Samsung still omits).<\/p>\n
Unlike the flagship S95D, the S90F lacks the new matte anti-glare coating, so reflections can be more pronounced in bright rooms. However, it still handles ambient light better than many competitors, thanks to its semi-gloss finish that diffuses light effectively.<\/p>\n
Motion handling is another highlight. With a refresh rate up to 144Hz, low response times, and customizable motion smoothing, fast-paced scenes\u2014from action films to football matches\u2014stay crisp and fluid.<\/p>\n
Audio: Better Than You\u2019d Expect\u2014But Bring a Soundbar<\/strong><\/h3>\nThe built-in 2.1-channel speaker system does a solid job, especially with dialogue clarity and general TV watching. For blockbuster films or gaming, however, it reaches its limits. The good news? Pairing with a compatible Samsung soundbar unlocks Q-Symphony, a feature that uses both TV and soundbar speakers in unison for a fuller, richer audio experience.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re going all-in on immersion, a dedicated sound system will elevate the S90F from great to extraordinary.<\/p>\n
Gaming Features: Next-Gen Ready<\/strong><\/h3>\nGamers will find a lot to love here. The S90F includes four full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 ports<\/strong>, supporting 4K at 120Hz, VRR, and ALLM. Whether you\u2019re on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, or a high-end PC, this TV is ready for high-performance gaming.<\/p>\nSamsung\u2019s Game Bar lets you tweak settings on the fly, and input lag is minimal\u2014even in graphically intense titles. Cloud gaming services are also fully supported for those cutting the console cord.<\/p>\n![\"The](\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/The-patch-panel-has-all-the-most-important-connections.jpg\")

The built-in 2.1-channel speaker system does a solid job, especially with dialogue clarity and general TV watching. For blockbuster films or gaming, however, it reaches its limits. The good news? Pairing with a compatible Samsung soundbar unlocks Q-Symphony, a feature that uses both TV and soundbar speakers in unison for a fuller, richer audio experience.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re going all-in on immersion, a dedicated sound system will elevate the S90F from great to extraordinary.<\/p>\n
Gaming Features: Next-Gen Ready<\/strong><\/h3>\nGamers will find a lot to love here. The S90F includes four full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 ports<\/strong>, supporting 4K at 120Hz, VRR, and ALLM. Whether you\u2019re on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, or a high-end PC, this TV is ready for high-performance gaming.<\/p>\nSamsung\u2019s Game Bar lets you tweak settings on the fly, and input lag is minimal\u2014even in graphically intense titles. Cloud gaming services are also fully supported for those cutting the console cord.<\/p>\nThe patch panel has all the most important connections.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nConnectivity & Ports: Everything You Need<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- \n
