Deal | Open-box Samsung S90C 55-inch QD-OLED available for only US$1,166.99 at Best Buy ^↺

Launched as a more affordable alternative to the S95C QD-OLED TVs, Samsung’s S90C models are in the same class as LG’s C-series screens. The S90C 4K QD-OLEDs are now getting a US$300 discount at Best Buy, but there also are better deals via the open-box buying options, which see the price lowered by as much as US$730.

Unlike the S95C that comes with the second gen QD-OLED panels, the S90C features the first gen panel just like the S95B from last year. These are still excellent screens with superior color gamut even over this year’s ALM OLEDs from LG. Bright highlights only get to around 1000 nits instead of 1400, while full field brightness is capped at around 200 nits instead of close to 300 compared to the S95C model, and the One-Connect box is missing as well. However, reviews have shown that the image quality is still better compared to this year’s LG OLEDs when it comes to gaming, especially in HDR content.

A brand new model costs US$1,599 with the US$300 discount from Best Buy. However, buyers who do not mind getting a slightly used model can pay only US$1,166.99 for a TV with minor cosmetic signs (usually on the stand and back) and some non-essential accessories missing, or US$1,214.99 for a screen that looks brand new and contains all accessories, but it’s missing some packaging.
