More LEDs can be configured in the same size screen, effectively reducing the halo effect from the upgrade of the hardware itself.

The surface of the QN90C screen also uses anti-reflective technology, which can prevent bright indoor sunlight from interfering with watching the midday game, and will not let the reflection of light affect watching movies at night. Anti-reflective technology can reduce the interference of ambient light on the screen display when sitting in different positions in the living room.

The resolution of QN90C is as high as 3840x2160. The built-in Samsung Neo QLED 4K processor is powerful and can adaptively optimize the user experience through deep learning algorithms. The processor can optimize viewing conditions frame by frame and improve content quality.

It is not difficult to see from actually watching videos and pictures that the performance of the QN90C in the black part is of the same quality as OLED TV products. Because the self-luminous display can be controlled, the deeper black performance also makes the picture contrast better. improved. The exquisite light control and power distribution technology also better controls the LED brightness level.

QN90C’s powerful neural network can drive three-dimensional depth image quality and achieve enhanced depth of field. Real depth of field restoration technology can simulate the way the naked eye processes depth of field by increasing the contrast of the foreground. When you look at some of the captured pictures, as seen by the human eye, the details of the foreground picture are deepened without changing the background picture, making the mountains and buildings more layered.
