Professional reviewers commend the QN90D for its vivid HDR colors, robust gaming features with full HDMI 2.1 support, and the AI-driven NQ4 Gen2 processor that lifts picture quality. However, they point out that the out-of-the-box SDR accuracy is merely passable, the Game Mode reduces brightness, and the lack of an anti-glare coating hampers performance in bright rooms, while the built-in audio is modest compared with larger sizes.
