New Samsung QN900F 8K QLED TV offers 120Hz and might be suitable for gamers

Samsung has officially unveiled new televisions that sport a significantly higher resolution compared to conventional 4K sets. The QN900F is available with a 65-inch panel for $3,300, while the 75-inch version retails for $4,300. An 85-inch variant is slated to follow. The European launch of these new Samsung TVs is slated for April.

In terms of technical specifications, the resolution is 7,680 x 4,320 pixels at a refresh rate of 120Hz. When displaying 4K content, the refresh rate can be increased to 165Hz. Native 8K content is certainly not widely available just yet, but an upscaler is supposed to provide decent picture quality even with lower-resolution material. FreeSync Premium Pro is also supported, as are ALLM and VRR.

Furthermore, the 65-inch Samsung QN900F has an integrated 4.2.2-channel audio system with an RMS of 70 watts and Dolby Atmos, which is supposed to create an immersive surround sound. These TVs have a rather elegant bezel, and the Art Store can be used to display artwork. That said, these screens are not equipped with OLED but Neo QLED panels with a mini-LED backlight.

Four HDMI ports are available, although these can only handle an 8K signal at 60Hz. Consequently, it's not possible to play video games at 8K and high refresh rates, but very few gaming PCs can handle modern titles at 8K and stable 120 fps anyway. Last but not least, the QN900F comes with USB and an Ethernet port.
