If I had a PS5 and money to burn I would go with the Sony A95L (Sony added some features to make the A95L and PS5 compliment each other. If I had an Xbox I would still prefer to go with a Sony A95L but really would just go with which ever of the 2 is cheaper, the G3 or the A95L. I prefer the Sony's XR Clear image processor and the QD-OLDED panel that it has though, so I would really just go for A95L instead of G3 at those price ranges.
However, I really can't justify paying that much money for the G3 or A95L when this Samsung S90C is way cheaper and also very very good in image quality. Also, by the time the G3 and A95L drop to this same price range, if they ever do, I know it will be another battler for myself to convince me to pull the trigger between those and whatever new models come out

Doing that mod might void your warranty, just FYI.

One would prefer the QLED if you watch a lot of content with static elements such as a news channel or nothing but sports. Also, if your room is bright, the QLED will be easier to watch.
That being said, I bought the 89C and it is plenty bright. I sit in a room with one big window on one side, two small windows in the back, and you can see the front entryway and the next room with windows from the couch on the side with the windows.
Consider that the S95C and A95L use the same Samsung QD OLED panel. Thus, the S95C is panel is capable of doing what the Sony does, it just that Sony drives it better. This is what kind of convinced me to pull the trigger on the S90C, with some tweaking you should get an image that is very close to the amazing G3 and A95L but for way less. I was also hoping that maybe Samsung could improve the image processing through a software update but those hopes went away with the announcement of the S95D. The S95D will be using a new AI driven image processor, thus whatever improvements they do over there can't be shared with the S90C.
I still think this deal is a great buy.
Brightness is the other factor, if you will be using in a room that gets a lot of sun light you might prefer a QLED, although with QDOLED in my opinion the brightness is good enough to be ok in a bright room.
The last factor to consider is if you are a hardcore gamer QDOLED has less latency than QLED but in my opinion you will only notice if you are very peaky or hardcore gamer.
