I currently own 2x 85QN90B, both with 10% off + 2yr free warranty. Remember that Samsung's instructions to AGS is to a mandatory 2 man delivery past the door sweep; last mile delivery contracts by AGS through third party may not follow these instructions, be prepared to help carry your own TV into your home. Samsung also instructs AGS to allot 4 hours for delivery, take the time to unbox, inspect, setup, and test your TV with that 4hour allotment. If it has damages, non surface scratches, bad DSE, or the blooming is not tolerable (Open Netflix app, and watch the start-up logo as a good indicator) to your liking, then pack it back up and have the AGS delivery driver haul it back. Save yourself the headache of having to schedule it through FedEx Freight if you decide to return it.
Solo unboxing tips for testing:
Cut the straps cleanly and save
Remove the 2 black plastic lock-step clips from each side
Do not lift the slip top, instead open it, so you can easily part it in half
Remove all the accessories: top left remote + manual, top and bottom right stand
Remove the foam cover, and foam brackets
Use the left and right side bottom foam and flip horizontal and slip into bottom foam insert (creates a temporary stand)
You can plug the TV in and begin testing from here
If you want full view of the screen, then remove the foam insert bottom rear center (lift) then push the foam insert that's for the bottom center front, by pushing it out
From here you can begin assembling the stand
You will need to temporarily lift the stand to mount it to the mounting points on the TV by about 0.5in
If you didn't order White Glove delivery, then AGS is not required to help
You may get lucky and have a good AGS driver who will help though
All of these unboxing instructions are on the box itself, and an infographic inside
I've cycled through a total of 8x85QN90B, 2 delivered at a time, for a total of 4 deliveries. DSE was a major issue, ranging anywhere from vertical bars, horizontal bars, speckled blotches, to softball sized circles anywhere around the screen. It took 4 deliveries to finally get a panel where the DSE was limited enough and near the edges (no its not light bleed) to not be noticeable, and be tolerable for me. Blooming in certain scenes like the Netflix start-up logo cannot be helped, the AI logic is just not fantastic in that specific scene, but it's great base indicator for the worst possible blooming issue you can encounter on this TV. For other use cases, blooming is well managed, controlled, and hardly noticeable.
If you do not plan to pay for professional calibration but you want to adjust your TV to a good degree, I highly recommend checking out Classy Tech Calibrations, YT video on the recommend settings, there's also an AVSForum thread you can run through for the QN90B that will be helpful. Otherwise if you're a lot like my wife where the standard and dynamic options and overblown colors and saturation works for you, enjoy!

EDIT: Based on some responses, it seems Samsung may have finally closed this stacking loophole for 10% + 2yr, YMMV
The other thing that's shit about this TV is the massive volume panel that comes up when you want to change volume. No way to disable and it covers up a huge part of your screen. I thought adding a soundbar would remove that panel as the soundbar has its own display, but nope. Still there. I've learned to live with it but if you have to constantly change volume, just be aware.
The UI is complete trash. It's pretty unbelievable that they would push out this kind of UI on what is meant to be their flagship tv.
Having said that, if you can live with a "dumb" offline only tv, and the volume indicator, and fugly, and frustrating UI, then you might love this TV as much as we do. We have it in a bright room with skylights and it looks amazing. The hdr 10+ looks great and the colors are beautiful.
You'll want 2 people to set this up as the base alone feels like it's 30 lbs or so.
Hope this is helpful to someone.

Also have $200 off $2000 purchase via Amex Business Platinum with 2 or more purchases at Samsung. Probably buy a sound bar. Very slick deal. Shame I can't stack the samsung care. Can only do 1 promo code.
Actually, I don't think this qualifies for the amex offer. Shame but still good.
I am hearing good things about 2023 models though, not enough out there to substantiate the overall reports on panel lottery, but it does seem to fair better.
No QD- Oled larger than 77" and even at 77" you're paying $4k+ which is twice the price.
Be realistic, people such as yourself with ocd disorders will never be happy.
I bought an 85" Samsung 8K , of course with text there's blooming and when pulling up color charts you can see some screen uniformity, but other than that it's a spectacular tv that's very fast, responsive , extremely bright, great for gaming and overall for the price (I paid $2900) it's a happy medium as all tvs are within a similar price range.
*Cup is half full , learn to Enjoy Life

Samsung 8K lineup are top tier premium sets, 800 lineup is cheaper because it lacks infinity bezel like the 900 and less dimming zones , but in actuality the 800 in several test areas measures brighter.
I own the QN800A 85" and in SDR content it's a light canon, main reason I bought is 8K lineup that year was only Samsung TVs with 4xhdmi 2.1 connection with 1 connect box
As stated only QD-Oled as of today are panels with minimal to no uniformity issues, but as stated limited to certain sizes and of course cost.
Any and every single LCD panel from any manufacturer will have screen defects, especially when you're looking for them. A backlight with multiple layers will always cause this.
