Percentage Luminance drop at 35 degree horizontal angle from the centre of the screen with 50% white output LG has been, more or less, the first to integrate gaming tech. But not too far behind is Samsung, and while its TVs don’t boast as wide a breadth of features, their sets are speedy for response times. Max light output HDR (high dynamic range) while displaying a live scene and white square taking up 10% of the screen (measured in Nits) With current-gen consoles and the introduction of the HDMI 2.1 standard, gaming has turned into a battleground where TV manufacturers look to appeal to the twitchiest of gaming fingers. Assembly is simple and the overall quality of construction speaks to Samsung’s high standards. 43-inch TVs aren’t often as well built as this one is. Interface

LG 55NANO766QA review - Which?

Speaking of fingertips, Samsung supplies two remotes with the QE43QN90A: a standard model and less cluttered version that can be charged by USB-C or through its eco-minded solar panel that soaks up ambient light. Features When we had the TV fully set up on the stand, with screws fastened as tight as possible, there was still a reasonable amount of wobble to the TV. It wasn’t as bad as the Sony X950H that we lambasted last year for its shakiness, but it’s still much less stable than we’d like. Of course, we can only speak about the 65-inch version of the TV that we had in for testing – the 55-inch TV might be totally fine with its lower weight and center of gravity. If you’re keen on streaming and making sure you have every reasonably conceivable app and connectivity set, the Samsung QE43QN90A is a great option. You have Samsung’s TV Plus – which although not Freeview/Freesat certified allows the physical connection of both aerial and satellite to be combined into one TV guide – admittedly at the slightly frustrating cost of some advertising boards from Samsung, which will recommend you content in your main TV dashboard. Alongside this, from Netflix through to Curzon cinema – you’re covered for streaming content. Subtitles and audio description information displayed on electronic programme guide more info panel

Some songs sounded better than others, admittedly, and the Spotify app could get significantly louder than most shows, but the Samsung QN90A didn’t have a large soundstage or convincing holography. That’s severely disappointing as one of the highly touted new features of the Neo Quantum Processor 4K is AI Sound that promises a 3D audio-like experience. If you’re at all familiar with Samsung’s QLED screens, you’ll know that their main bragging rights are down to how vivid and impressive the colours can be. There is absolutely no change here – just the addition of more realism and detail that the Neo LED array brings. With a greater control over more precise areas of the screen, skin tones are more realistic, colour gradients like in fading sunsets retain all of their brilliance, but with less loss of accuracy or ‘washing’ out the image.

Underpinning the Samsung QN90A is the Tizen smart platform that Samsung has been using for, well, what feels like forever. New this year is the ability to change which smart assistant the TV uses and your options include Alexa, Google Assistant and Bixby. We still don’t think Bixby is on par with the other two, but now that’s less of an issue given the fact that it’s easy to switch to one of the others instead. But the benefit is fantastically bright images, allied with a wide colour range and super levels of detail and sharpness. The costumes in The Last Duel are revealed to their finest details, from the rivets in armour to jewel-encrusted tunics and threads of fur coats; nothing seems to escape the QN90A’s gaze. Close-ups of faces hold up impressively well in any film I watch, so – if it wasn’t already obvious in lieu of its size – this is a TV you’ll want to get up close to.As a means of navigation the interface is simple to get to grips with, offering an arsenal of picture, sound and feature customisations at your fingertips.
