Conclusion

The Samsung Qled QE98Q950R - 98 inch (249 cm) version of the Samsung QE75Q950R that we tested - is an excellent LCD TV that displays a very well calibrated image whether in SDR or HDR. Compared to the Oled models, it is distinguished by a higher brightness peak and a very efficient anti-reflective filter which allow it to be installed in a very bright living room. If you use an Ultra HD source, this 8K panel and the scaling engine bring a gain of sharpness, but the native 8K contents are still non-existent and the scaling engine shows its limits with HD and SD content. This Samsung QE75Q950R television is a serious competitor of the Sony 77AG9 and LG 77C9 sold at the same price. In contrast, the 98-inch model, the Samsung QE98Q950R, is - pending the Sony ZG9 test - the best very large TV.
