Add DisplaySpecifications as a preferred source on GoogleThe 85" Samsung QN990H is the only 8K offering by the brand for this model year (so far). This is a flagship Neo QLED 8K TV that introduces a new generation of AI‑driven picture processing, Mini LED precision, and an immersive design that pushes the boundaries of premium home entertainment. The European model is dubbed Samsung QE85QN990H and costs EUR 9999 / CHF 8999. It remains unknown whether Samsung will release a U.S.-bound model.
The Samsung QN990H features an 8K Neo QLED glare‑free panel with Samsung's latest Quantum Mini LED Pro backlight system. Video capabilities include Neo Quantum HDR 8K Pro, AI‑based SDR‑to‑HDR conversion, AI Motion Enhancer Pro, Color Booster Pro, Real Depth Enhancer Pro, and full 8K upscaling via the company's most advanced Neural Quantum 8K AI Gen3 processor to date. Gamers benefit from Motion Xcelerator 240 Hz in 4K, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and the AI Gaming Optimizer, which automatically adjusts settings based on genre.
At the heart of the QN990H's advanced capabilities is Samsung Vision AI Companion, a multi‑agent system that allows the TV to interpret scenes, answer questions, and provide contextual assistance using visual and audio cues. This extends into entertainment features such as AI Football Mode Pro, which automatically enhances stadium ambience and player detail, and AI Sound Controller Pro, which separates voices, effects, and music into individually adjustable layers. The TV also supports generative AI wallpapers, enabling users to create custom ambient visuals directly on the screen.
Audio is equally ambitious. A 6.2.4‑channel speaker system with 90W output supports Dolby Atmos and Object Tracking Sound Pro, allowing effects to follow on‑screen motion. Adaptive Sound Pro and Active Voice Amplifier Pro use AI to enhance clarity and adjust to room acoustics. Q‑Symphony enables synchronized playback with compatible Samsung soundbars.
The QN990H runs on One UI Tizen, redesigned for 2026 with a more intuitive layout, seven years of OS upgrades, and deep integration with Samsung Knox security. SmartThings features include AI Energy Mode, 3D Map View, Pet Care monitoring, Quick Remote, and seamless content sharing via Storage Share. Samsung TV Plus and the Art Store remain central to the content ecosystem.
Design-wise, the Infinity Air aesthetic creates the illusion of a floating display with ultra‑thin bezels and a nearly weightless profile. The Wireless One Connect Box can transmit an 8K 120 Hz signal wirelessly over distances up to 10 meters, reducing cable clutter and enabling flexible room layouts. Connectivity options further include five HDMI 2.1 ports, Wi‑Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, etc. The solar‑powered remote eliminates disposable batteries.
