Samsung QN90F (2025)
Built-in far-field microphone
Has micThis model has a built-in far-field microphone, which is the hardware hands-free voice control uses.
Samsung's own official US product page lists "Far-Field Voice Interaction: Yes" directly in its specifications table, alongside "Bixby: Yes" and "Built-in Voice Assistant: Alexa". This is the same kind of explicit hardware-capability row LG's spec sheets use for "Hands-free Voice Control", not just a remote-based voice feature.
Automatic content recognition (ACR), including over HDMI
Runs ACRThis model runs Samsung's ACR feature (branded "Viewing Information Services"), which analyzes on-screen content — including over HDMI — to identify what's playing.
What ACR is and how to turn it off →
Consumer Reports and The Markup both identify "Viewing Information Services" as the name Samsung gives its ACR system in the TV's settings menu, with instructions for turning it off — neither source explicitly states it ships on by default for this exact model, but ACR being opt-out (not opt-in) is consistent across every Samsung TV generation both outlets have tested.
Scans your local network for other devices
UnverifiedLocal network scanning hasn't been confirmed for this model from a citable source yet.
How to put a TV on its own network →
Unlike the LG entries on this site — where local-network scanning is tied to a specific, named investigation (Gamers Nexus/Level1Techs, 2026) — no equally rigorous primary source could be found describing this specific behavior on a current Samsung model. Secondary privacy explainers describe smart TVs generically as scanning the local network, and Samsung's SmartThings integration does discover devices, but that's an app-side feature with its own permission model, not confirmed as unprompted TV-side scanning the way LG's finding was. Stays unverified rather than assumed true just because LG does it.
Security vulnerabilities in Tizen
SupportedThis model is still receiving firmware/platform updates.
What that actually means for your TV →
Samsung announced in August 2024 that TVs from 2024 onward get seven years of Tizen OS updates (its 'One UI' unification, extended to TVs starting 2025). The QN90F is a 2025 model, squarely inside that window — current-generation and shipping with Samsung's newest smart-TV software out of the box.
