Hey Cool People,

I purchased a Samsung 65” Neo QLED 4K QN85D Smart TV yesterday from Samsung AU through Westpac Rewards for $1499, and traded our 9 year old 65” Sony Bravia for $100 which took the price down to $1399 including delivery and pickup of our old Sony (our TV has dead pixels but it didn’t make any difference to the $100 trade value)

The 65” QN85D is currently $2995 at JB Hi-Fi and works out to be 50% off retail, and a little more if you trade an old tv.

I’m guessing it should be available for a similar price through other Samsung Partner programs and thought I’d share the love

Hope this helps someone out 👍

    For this price I'd get an X90L which would be comparable (trading contrast for image processing and speed), but also that it has Google TV instead of Tizen OS.

    (I have X90L, just bought a Frame, and Tizen makes me want to throw myself off a cliff sometimes.)

      Unless you can find the X90L close to this deal this is a very good TV at a bargain price especially with OP trade in.

      Tizen is not as bad as you make it out to be.

        I've seen X90L 3 times at $1500, but yeah need to wait for the super big randomly timed sale or wait for "Box Damaged" to come back in stock (which came completely new for me, apart from small impact crease on box).

        I can't tell if Tizen actually closes apps when I switch (there is no method via GUI to close apps), so after I switch a few apps I suspect a memory leak since the OS starts to lag.

        Also, apps freeze easily, there are constant auto-play videos and ads on the home page of the OS, TV settings occasionally unselect themselves despite not interacting with those settings, opening the TV setting menu automatically opens up the previous streaming app to play loudly in the background (why?!), limited app selection, painful process to install the sideloading app (which is in and of itself sort of buggy), Internet app is randomly selective of not supporting video content, and [Frame specific] settings for art mode are not in a convenient location but rather at the bottom of 3 or 4 screens worth of paid, inaccessable content (to me as a F2P).

        I'm sure I'll have more complaints after another month of owning this TV.

          You can close the active app by holding the back button.

          Should reduce memory use by closing unnecessary apps.

          • tekisei on 23/04/2025 - 23:53

            @kizzaaa: If I forget to hold the back button and instead press home, then it wouldn't close the app?

            But then that becomes unfixable after a while without full shut off + restart because there's no list of open apps in the GUI lol (e.g. having personally forgotten which apps are open).

      Agree. Despite the X90L being Direct-LED (FALD) and not Mini LED like the QN85D, it actually gets a better score: https://www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/sony-x90l-x90cl-vs-s…
