Samsung 65 inch

Wikidy

Hello,

We are looking for a 65/70 inch tv for a very bright room. Previously purchased from yourselves and very satisfied. Looking for it to be future proofed for gaming HDMI 2.1, 4k@120Hz, VRR, with high panel refresh rate.

Budget 1500 - 1600. I was looking at this model https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-205255-samsung-qe65qn95a-65-inch-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-2000-smart-samsung-neo-qled-tv.aspx, as it is is a very bright room, with direct sunlight. We have all but discounted OLEDs due to brightness and will need some anti glare on the panel.

Do you know of any downsides to connecting to the 2 connect box rather than directly to the tv. Heard differing reports of the connect box, but it will be mounted to a block wall (no stud wall available to run cables), so will take this into consideration.

Are there any alternatives to this we should consider? Not too worried about lack of Dolby Vision.

Finally in your opinion would the Samsung be a significant improvement on the Sony XR65X90, doesn't look in stock.

Hi Wikidy.

Many thanks for the post.

The 65QN95A would be a fantastic purchase and would suit the brighter conditions. There is no real difference in using the one connect box over connections on the TV. The one connect box is designed so there are not lots of cables running up wall etc to the TV and instead just the one thin little cable. Which makes things neater.

In my opinion the 65QN95 would win on picture quality over the Sony 65X90. They are both different technologies, with the Samsung being QLED and the Sony jut standard LED. The 65X90 is indeed out of stock at the moment.

You could maybe check out the NEW technology that LG have combined together to get their QNED panel. They have just released the 65QNED816 coming in at 1499 Euro. This combines the Quantum Dot technology that Samsung use with LG's own NANO cell technology.

You are right on the OLED as with sun light you can get reflection on the panel.

Let me know your thoughs.

Thank you for the feedback, I think I still prefer the Samsung.

What fixed, slim wall mount would you recommend to go with the Qn95?

Thanks for getting back to us Wikidy!

Samsung have a wall mount with no gap that will work with the 2021 range of QLEDs:

Let me know what you think of this option!

Kind regards
