What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Very bright for an OLED, with punchy, saturated colors and near-perfect viewing angles
- Slim, premium build with a clean stand and easy setup
- Strong gaming features including low input lag, high refresh rate, and full-bandwidth HDMI ports
Reviewers push back
- Panel lottery means some sizes ship with a lesser-performing panel type instead of the higher-end one
- A firmware bug causes certain colors, especially yellows, to be under-saturated in HDR
- Dark scene uniformity shows visible banding, and blacks raise noticeably in bright rooms due to the glossy screen
The S90F is a bright, richly colored OLED with a slim, premium build, but its picture quality depends heavily on which panel variant you get.
Some reviewers treat the panel variation as a dealbreaker to research carefully, while others consider both versions still strong performers
