Key Features

  • 98-inch 4K Crystal UHD display – The huge 98-inch screen gives films, sport, gaming and everyday TV a much larger scale, while 4K resolution provides 3,840 x 2,160 pixels for detailed viewing.
  • NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor with 4K AI Upscaling – Processing helps enhance compatible content towards 4K, making lower-resolution programmes and older films better suited to such a large screen.
  • Motion Xcelerator 144Hz and FreeSync Premium – High refresh-rate support and variable refresh rate technology help keep fast-moving sport and compatible gaming content smooth.
  • Samsung Vision AI and Tizen Smart TV – Access streaming services, smart functions and Samsung’s Vision AI features from the TV, with support for voice interaction and SmartThings.
  • Slim Look design with flexible placement – The slim screen profile works well for wall mounting, while the supplied flat feet provide an alternative freestanding setup.

If you want a genuinely large-screen television for films, sport, gaming and everyday entertainment, the Samsung UE98U9000HKXXU puts a 98-inch 4K Crystal UHD display at the centre of your room. The combination of 3,840 x 2,160 resolution and Samsung’s picture processing is designed to make the most of such a large screen, including when the source material is not originally recorded in 4K.

The NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor works with 4K AI Upscaling and the Supersize Picture Enhancer to process compatible content for the large display. Colour Booster Pro and HDR+ are also included, helping the TV adjust picture characteristics to make colour, contrast and detail more visible.

There is plenty here for more than films and streaming, too. Motion Xcelerator 144Hz, FreeSync Premium, Game Bar and Gaming Hub make the UE98U9000HKXXU an option for console and PC gaming, while the Tizen platform provides access to popular streaming and smart TV services.

Picture Quality & Smart Features

The main attraction is, naturally, the 98-inch screen. At this size, the TV can create a much more substantial viewing area than a conventional living-room television, making screen size an important consideration alongside resolution. The panel has a 4K resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 pixels, giving you the detail expected from a modern Ultra HD television.

Samsung’s NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor is used to analyse and process the picture, with 4K AI Upscaling helping compatible lower-resolution content look more appropriate on the 4K display. The Supersize Picture Enhancer is specifically intended to optimise content for the large screen, which is particularly relevant on a 98-inch television.

HDR+ is supported, while Auto HDR Remastering can process compatible standard dynamic range content to create an HDR-like picture. Real Depth Enhancer adjusts contrast in areas where the eye naturally focuses, helping give scenes a greater sense of depth.

For sport, the Motion Xcelerator 144Hz system is designed to keep fast movement smoother. The television supports 144Hz VRR, with 100Hz listed as the native refresh rate, and its HDMI connections support 4K at up to 144Hz. This makes it particularly relevant if you plan to connect a suitable gaming PC or use compatible high-frame-rate content.

Smart TV features are built around Tizen. You can use the television for streaming, access Samsung TV Plus and use compatible smart-home products through SmartThings. Bixby and far-field voice interaction are supported, while Alexa and Google Assistant compatibility is available in the UK.

Samsung also states that Tizen OS upgrades will be supported for up to seven years from 2026 for products released in that year. This provides useful reassurance for customers looking at the television as a longer-term entertainment purchase.

Features That Matter

NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor and 4K AI Upscaling

The NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor processes picture information using AI-based enhancements, while 4K AI Upscaling works to improve compatible content towards 4K resolution. On a 98-inch screen, this processing is particularly useful because lower-resolution material can otherwise become more noticeable as the picture is enlarged.

Colour Booster Pro

Colour Booster Pro adjusts colour levels scene by scene. Rather than relying on one fixed colour setting, the television can adapt colour reproduction to the content being shown, helping maintain more consistent colour across different types of programmes and films.

Motion Xcelerator 144Hz

Motion Xcelerator 144Hz is designed for smoother handling of fast movement. The TV supports VRR and up to 4K 144Hz through its HDMI connections, with FreeSync Premium also available for compatible gaming equipment. This makes it useful for fast-moving games and sport where motion handling is particularly noticeable.

Samsung Vision AI Companion

Vision AI Companion provides an AI-assisted way to interact with the television, including asking questions and discovering information using compatible content and services. Samsung notes that support and available functions can vary depending on viewing content and apps, so it is best considered an additional smart TV function rather than a replacement for conventional search and streaming services.

AI Sound Controller and Object Tracking Sound Lite

The UE98U9000HKXXU has a 20W two-channel audio system with Object Tracking Sound Lite, Adaptive Sound+, Active Voice Amplifier and AI Sound Controller. AI Sound Controller can separate voices from background effects and allow the balance to be adjusted, while Object Tracking Sound Lite is designed to make sound appear to follow movement across the screen.

Q-Symphony

If you pair the television with a compatible Samsung soundbar, Q-Symphony allows the TV speakers and soundbar to work together. This gives you an upgrade path if you later decide that the built-in 20W audio system needs more impact for films, sport or music.

Connectivity

There are three HDMI connections, all supporting high-frame-rate 4K up to 144Hz, along with two USB-A ports. Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.3 are built in, while eARC provides a suitable connection for compatible external audio equipment. Ethernet and optical digital audio outputs are also provided.

Everyday Benefits

A 98-inch television needs to work as more than a large screen, and the UE98U9000HKXXU is equipped for a wide range of everyday entertainment. Streaming services, broadcast television, gaming and connected devices can all be brought together through the Tizen platform and its selection of connections.

The picture processing is particularly useful when you are watching a mixture of modern 4K content and older or lower-resolution material. Instead of restricting the TV to native 4K sources, its processing is designed to make compatible content look more appropriate on the large display.

The TV can also form part of a wider entertainment system. Bluetooth, HDMI eARC, optical audio and Q-Symphony give you several ways to connect compatible audio equipment, while SmartThings can bring supported smart-home devices into the same ecosystem.

Who Is It Ideal For?

The Samsung UE98U9000HKXXU is particularly suited to customers who want a very large screen without moving to an 8K television.

It makes sense for a dedicated film and streaming setup, a large living room where a smaller television would lose impact, or a gaming and sport-focused room where the 98-inch display can make fast-moving action easier to follow. The 144Hz VRR support also makes it worth considering for customers with compatible gaming hardware.

Because the TV measures more than 2.18 metres wide, careful planning is essential. With the stand fitted it measures 2,181.1mm wide by 1,298.2mm high and 402.3mm deep, while the screen itself is 63.5mm deep without the stand.

Why Choose This Product?

The UE98U9000HKXXU combines the visual scale of a 98-inch screen with 4K resolution, AI-based picture processing, a high refresh rate and a full Smart TV platform. That makes it a flexible choice rather than a television designed around one particular type of viewing.

Its connectivity also gives you room to build around the television. Three HDMI inputs, eARC, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, USB and optical audio cover a broad range of external devices, while FreeSync Premium and 4K 144Hz support add useful capabilities for compatible gaming equipment.

The slim design provides a wall-mounting option, while the flat feet allow freestanding installation. The VESA mounting specification is 600 x 400mm, giving customers a clear starting point when checking wall-mount compatibility.
