In 2021, the South Korean electronics giant Samsung released the first LCD TVs with innovative Neo-QLED technology, which combines quantum dots and mini-LED zones. Various screen sizes of the Samsung QN90A Neo QLED TV series have already appeared, with the upper-class versions: 50 to 85 inches. Now, it should change shortly, as a Samsung 43 inch TV variant is in the starting blocks.
According to the Samsung US product page, the Samsung QN43QN90AAFXZA comes up with all the key data of the Samsung QN90A QLED series. So the neo-QLED televisions occur with 4K – resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels), Tizen operating system, a maximum of 120 Hz refresh rate, Neo Quantum Processor 4K, and support for HDR10+ on. Features such as ALLM (“Auto Low Latency Mode”), eARC, FreeSync Premium Pro, and VRR (“Variable Refresh Rate”) do not have to be dispensed with either.
The range of interfaces also includes Bluetooth 4.2, HDMI, RJ-45, S / PDIF, USB 2.0, WLAN 802.11ac, a headphone output (3.5 mm jack), and two DVB tuners. The built-in 20 watts 2.0 sound system can be coupled with a connected soundbar thanks to Q-Symphony and also masters the virtual 3D surround technology “Object Tracking Sound Lite”.
The Samsung 43 inch TV can be mounted on the wall using a VESA mount (200 x 200 mm). The Samsung QN43QN90AAFXZA, which weighs 9.2 kg without a stand, is classified with class F (SDR) or G (HDR), is 60 watts (SDR) or 118 watts (HDR) in operation, and comes with a solar-powered one Remote control included.
Samsung QN90A Neo QLED TV price and availability
The new 43-inch Samsung Neo QLED 4K Smart TV 2021 price has been set at $1,299.99, and the first US online retailer BestBuy.com has already listed it with a “Coming Soon” status. Hopefully, it will also be available from Amazon.com and Bhphotovideo.com websites soon, and expecting it for September or October 2021.
Last month, Samsung has unveiled its new flagship Odyssey Neo G9 gaming monitor with a 32:9 display, high resolution, brightness, and frame rate leaves little room for improvement and costs a lot accordingly.
Hmmm
It seems that there are conflicting user (Best Buy) and retailer reports (B&H Photo among others) of the actual specs for this monitor. First, the 43″ does not have a 32X instead just a 24X processor. Second, the refresh rate appears to actually only 60hz and not 120hz. And third it seems it lacks the wide viewing angle screen of the larger tv’s. If correct, that is confirmation that the 43″ has an entirely different and lower quality panel than the rest of the series which does not justify its sky high MSRP. Sadly, this down grading of smaller size tv specs has always been a very common occurrence with most manufacturers.
Perhaps someone could chime in and provide the specs of the actual shipping 43″ TV as of December 2021?
