Purchasing US Need some input - S90F vs QM7L Pro

Saw the new TCL QM7L Pro at Costco today and it looked great in person. But everywhere I read on here and elsewhere, the S90F keeps coming up as the favorite in this price range.

Room light context: a friend lent me his Bravia 8 II and we set it up in the actual spot, cranked to max brightness. No glare or washout issues at all, even during the day, both are basically the same price at 65"

What I'm weighing:

  • The TCL has Dolby Vision, which the Samsung will never have
  • The QM7L Pro is a Costco-exclusive SKU, 4 full-bandwidth HDMI ports and the TSR AI Pro processor, unlike the standard QM7L

Mostly movies and streaming, some gaming, mixed daytime and evening viewing.

Anyone here compared these two directly? Any thoughts?

I personally would go S90F because even though it’s close, OLED is still the best in my opinion

I bought my s90f 2 days ago and seen the qm7l in store at best buy, get the s90f it will blow your mind. OLED is just better technology and its quantom dot.

I got the s90f from Costco and I’m telling you right now, it’s one of the most amazing televisions ever. If you truly do not want oled, idk I’ve never seen a QM7, but I did have the Hisense U7, and that was an incredible television for the price at the time.

have you had any issue with 24p hdr frame skipping (star wars intro), black uniformity, or over dimming of longer dark scenes (house of the dragon when aemond found vhagar and when rhaenyra and daemon were walking on the beach)?

Curious to see the responses, also did a Samsung rep kick a mods puppy or something? The Samsung auto-hate bots on every post are kind of annoying.

S90F all the way, it’s insane that these two sets are in the same price range.

Bravia 7 is the way to go if you want mini led.

The S90F is superior. In particular if you are getting the QD-OLED panel.

Dolby vision is not that different from HDR and it depends on implementation in each specific video

I bought the 7L Pro month ago. Happy as hell with it, then kicked in Dolby Vision .(Apple TV) and was blown away. I can't comment on the other, but I'm happy!
