It has remarkable motion handling with very little motion blur and fast-moving content, like sports, is crisp. The input lag is very low and the TV responds immediately to your actions, which is great for gamers and those who will use it as a PC monitor.

Reviewer score 86%The 85Q900R's incredible resolution and brightness combine to deliver simply the most stunning pictures I've ever seen on a TV. This is especially true with native 8K playback, but crucially given where the TV content world is at right now, upscaled 4K HDR pictures also look better than I'd dreamed possible. Its speakers struggle to deliver the sort of volumes such a massive TV needs to complete its cinematic experience, and the sound never really feels like it's coming forward into the room. Samsung's Smart Sound system does a mostly good job of automatically optimizing the sound settings to whatever type of content you're watching.

Pros
- Incredible 4K HDR picture quality
- Superb 4K upscaling
- Impressive HDR performance
Cons
- Backlight blooming
- No HDR10 support
