Owners keep the QN90F for a picture they rate as very good, with strong reflection handling and blacks they find close to OLED, and they accept occasional blooming as the trade-off.
Picture quality is clearly praised. Owners point to how well it handles reflections, blacks that come close to OLED to their eyes, and a 165Hz panel, and one owner who weighed rival sets in store chose it for exactly those reasons.
No theme drew a clear complaint. The main criticism is a minority view inside the praised picture quality theme: one owner returned the set for a Sony Bravia 7 and found the Sony far better. Another, who is happy with it, still notices blooming in some scenes.
The QN90F is Samsung's 2025 Neo QLED 4K TV. It uses a backlight made of many small LEDs (Mini LED). It sits near the top of Samsung's LCD range and suits people who watch in bright rooms or play games on a console or PC.

From the maker's spec page, checked October 10, 2026. A blank row means the maker does not state it.
4K means the picture stays sharp even on a big screen when you sit close. A native 120Hz screen that goes up to 165Hz gives smooth motion in sports and fast games, and the 165Hz mode is useful mainly with a gaming PC. All four HDMI ports take full-speed 4K signals, so you can plug in a console, a PC and a soundbar (on eARC) without giving anything up. The glare-free screen helps a lot in a room with windows or bright lights.
Pick up to three. You get a page with just those, side by side, on the subjects owners raised.
Once the set is in place, what owners keep coming back to is how it copes with room light. One owner picked it after comparing sets in store because glare would bother them more than not having perfect blacks, and they still find the blacks very close to OLED. Another describes it as a good TV despite the poor reputation QLED sets have, and says apart from some blooming everything else is fine.
The adjustments are about content and expectations. One new owner finds live content less impressive and plans to change settings and move to higher quality streaming tiers to improve it. Blooming shows up in some scenes, though the owner who mentioned it says it makes little difference. Someone else who compared it side by side with the older QN90D felt the matte screen made colours look slightly washed out.
The one durability report is positive. An owner running a 75 inch and a 50 inch QN90F says neither has given any trouble. None of the supplied accounts describes a fault or a failure.
There are very few long-term accounts, though. Most owners here are writing soon after buying, comparing it with other sets or looking at picture settings, so there is not yet enough evidence to say how the QN90F holds up over years of daily use.

Nothing has a clear majority against it yet. Counted from the owners who raised each subject, not from everyone. A subject is judged once at least 4 owners raise it.
17 more subjects came up from fewer than 4 owners each, which is not enough for a fair reading. To see how it stacks up, compare it with another machine.
The same owner, asked again at each point. Fills in as owners answer.
Two questions: how long you have had it, and anything you would like to say about it. Then we ask again as it ages. This helps our mission.

Before you buy one used, ask the seller: how old it is, whether it was ever repaired and by whom, and whether any of the parts above have been replaced. Ask to see it run. A receipt tells you the warranty start date; most makers honour the term only for the first owner.
