What Buyers Say
Samsung S90FA QN77S90FAFXZA 77"
42 out of 100 high confidence 125 reviews
The Samsung S90D OLED delivers stunning picture quality with perfect blacks, vibrant colors, and excellent gaming performance, but it is plagued by severe reliability issues. Many users report the TV dying within months due to a faulty power board, often requiring multiple repairs or replacements. Samsung's customer service is widely criticized for being slow, unhelpful, and unresponsive, turning warranty claims into lengthy ordeals. While the display impresses, the high failure rate and poor support make it a risky purchase.
