Q: It looks like the only difference between the QN85A and QN90A is the Quantum HDR 24X for the 85 and HDR 32X for the 90. What does that mean exactly, and how does it affect the TV viewing? Thanks

A: The 85" QN90A and QN85A are actually very similar, which is probably why their prices are so close. While most QN85A variants use an IPS-ADS panel, the 85" uses a VA, just like the QN90A. The QN85A has 1320 dimming zones, which is identical to the more expensive QN90A. Both TVs have the "Ultra Viewing Angle", which is Samsung speak for a special layer in the panel that they put on the higher end sets to improve the viewing angle. My assumption is that the QN85A and QN90A are using the same panel with the only real differences being in the speakers, case, and stand. If you put them side to side after a calibration, I would be shocked if you could tell the difference.

Q: Is this an ‘anti glare’ tv??

A: I have windows behind me when watching the TV. You can see a reflection of the windows in the TV during the day, but the unit is so bright, it doesn't affect viewing.

Q: On the new Samsung QN90A 85 inch model, how far are the bottom vesa mount holes from the bottom of the TV.?

A: Hi John, the VESA mount holes are 18" from the bottom of the 85" QN90A TV. ^Val

Q: How many speakers are in the television and does it produce decent sound without purchasing an additional sound bar?

A: Steven - The QN90A TV features 60 Watt 2.2.2 Channel sound. The QN90A also features Object Tracking Sound which utilizes 4 strategically placed speakers to place sounds exactly where they appear on-screen and optimizes sound based on each scene. Should you choose to add a Samsung Soundbar to your TV, please know that our Q-Series Soundbars (such as the HW-Q900A) feature Q-Symphony which will synchronize with the speakers of the QN90A TV for an immersive 3D sound experience. ^Gina

Q: If I understand the specs, this television does not have ethernet connectivity. Is this true and, if so, why? I already have this hard wired for my current television. Do any of the 2021 televisions have ethernet connectivity?

A: Hi radlytpa, The QN90A has 4 HDMI ports, 2 USB ports, 1 ethernet port, 1 Digital Audio Out, an RF in, and is Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled. All of our 2021 models have ethernet connectivity ^Val

Q: Does this TV have dual audio output?

A: Does this TV support someone hearing impaired listening through bluetooth headphones while the rest listen through a surround system via eARC or must the second output source be the TV speakers?

Q: I have been trying to buy a Samsung 85in Qn90A TV for a few months, but it says unavailable in my area. Can't buy in store or delivery. How can I buy this TV? What are my options?

A: Hi - If this model is currently unavailable at your local store or for delivery to your area, please continue to check the website or contact your local Best Buy for more information. ^Gina
