WINNER Samsung Q900R QLED 8K TV

BEST 8K TV

If you need a very big screen and 8K resolution, the Samsung Q900R QLED 8K TV is the one to get.

The Q900R's greatest strength is its extremely high brightness, which means the picture will look good whether you're using it in a bright family room or in a dark man cave. If you watch a lot of HDR content, this increased brightness can only be a good thing as it enhances realism.

Like Samsung’s flagship QLED TVs in the past few years, the

Q900R offers a class-leading local dimming performance. Coupled with an Ultra Viewing Angle tech that solves past QLEDs' narrow viewing angle problem, this is the most OLEDlike (in terms of black levels) Samsung TV we've tested to date.

The Q900R also sports a very low input lag, FreeSync/VRR support and excellent motion handling. One minor gripe we've is that while there's an HDMI 2.1 port on the One Connect box, there’s no eARC support.

Samsung's QLED TVs, including the Q900R, also support Apple's

AirPlay 2 and are the first TVs to offer the new Apple TV app. LG has announced that its 2019 TVs will be getting the Apple TV app soon.

Strange as it may sound but we think that the Q900R offers good value for the money — especially for the 75-inch and above segment. At S$17K, the 75-inch 8K Q900R costs about the same as the 77-inch LG C9, which is a 4K TV, which costs more. And versus the S$60K 88-inch LG Z9, which is the only 8K OLED TV that LG sells here, the 82-inch Q900R, which costs S$30K, looks like a bargain.
