Best Buy cuts $800 from Samsung home theater gear ahead of holiday sales

Best Buy has rolled out deep early holiday discounts on Samsung home entertainment equipment, knocking $800 off both an OLED television and a premium sound system. The 55-inch Samsung S90H OLED TV is discounted by 40% from $1,999.99 down to $1,199.99, beating its previous record low of $1,497.99 seen in July. Alongside the television, the 2025 Samsung Q900F soundbar bundle has dropped 53% to $697 from its original $1,497 price. [1][2]

The 2026 S90H features a Glare Free screen, an NQ4 AI Gen3 processor that upscales video using 128 neural networks, and up to 165Hz gaming support with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia G-Sync. For audio, the TV includes a 40W system with Dolby Atmos and Object Tracking Sound Lite. Users seeking dedicated theater sound can pair it with the 49-inch Q900F soundbar, which delivers a 7.1.2 channel layout with a wireless subwoofer, DTS:X and Dolby Atmos decoding, and 4K pass-through at 120Hz for gaming consoles.

Shoppers planning a home upgrade should account for a few hardware limits. Tom's Guide recommends placing the 49-inch soundbar under sets measuring at least 55 inches to prevent mismatched sizing, and certain features like SpaceFit Sound Pro remain restricted to post-2021 Samsung TVs. The steep audio cut likely reflects Best Buy clearing out 2025 inventory to accommodate 2026 audio releases such as the QS90H and Q990H. [2]
