Beautiful picture, terrible remote
I was pleasantly surprised with this new 42" S90F OLED model from Samsung. Much lighter to lift. Once I set picture mode to "filmmaker", it far surpassed the 2 equally expensive Sony models I previously (and very recently) bought and returned for defects. I really love the picture, and I can see it clearly from any angle. I did change a few configurations in the picture setup as far as disabling some motion settings, and setting to filmmaker mode. No halos, no blooming, clarity and skin tones are perfect. It could be a tiny bit brighter but the max setting is good enough for me. I thought the sound was a little muddy but I replaced my 4k HDMI cable and that did the trick. So, its been 4 days and I'm loving it. What I don't love is the tiny, unlit, ridiculous to figure out and almost weightless solar remote. So I ordered a backlit universal remote with Netflix, Disney & Prime shortcut buttons and actual number buttons with proper arrows, and it paired automatically with both the TV and cable box and works perfectly. Problem solved. So, bottom line, pricey but worth it.

Incredible TV, OLED > LCD
Incredible picture quality, love how many ports there are so I can have multiple devices connected to it. Was looking for a medium sized OLED monitor and this has more than met my hopes and expectations. High recommend if you have the budget and space for this! And I can't convey how much of a difference OLED makes over an LCD screen. There is no going back after this monitor!
