Away_Bag_2080Unfortunately, this applies to their entire system. Even the Q995X is a nightmare… You spend your life adjusting the EQ for every movie…
Confident_Mall_1876I had the JBL 5.1 multibeam for years and wasn't that happy with the subwoofer, now I got the Samsung HW Q995D and it just sounds like a cinema. They've reworked it a bit, but I think the thing still doesn't sound as good as the Samsung one. I only got it back then because it was 10 inches
Disastrous-Cow-2523Q995F with corpprate discount should be around same price but its VFM even ifits 75-80k https://www.samsung.com/in/multistore/in_corporate/prelogin/
dramak1ngSamsung Q995F is unbeatable in terms of value. You might be avel to get better if you shell out twice as much though.
egolgeliI paid 1400€ for a5000 8 years ago and it is still solid. But it is downgraded to the living room TV, and installed a q995f. It is immersive, a stunning upgrade over a5000. 60w TV speakers are also working with Samsung Q-Symphony. Really like that using all the performance. If you don't like cables around, this device is a beast when pair with a compatible TV.
FaceAdditional5043In 2021 I bought Samsung's top of the line TV and soundbar. This month my soundbar half died. I can't connect it to the TV no matter what connection is (hdmi earc, wifi, optical) But the Bluetooth and wifi connection is still working when using my phone. I've tried all the troubleshooting I can but nothing works. I've been using Samsung for the past 20 years and never had any issues. This might be my 6th TV and 3rd soundbar. All worked perfectly until I replaced them.

inkasssoPractically none, it's the same model but sold exclusively in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and some Nordic European countries. I think there are some differences in voice assistant support and licensing for Alexa. If you live in those countries you can get only the Q995 and not the Q990 and vice versa. If you ask me, they should've put an extra suffix, e.g. "Q990F.G". This way it looks like a tiny bit better model than the Q990. This mess is around already since the Q990B and Q995B for those countries, the Q950A was released same for all regions.
