Samsung Expands Ultra-Large TV Line-up with New 98” Model

Samsung Electronics America today announced the 98” – Class Samsung Crystal 4K TV (DU9000), the newest addition to the expansive 2024 Samsung TV lineup. It delivers picture quality that’s specifically optimized for the big screen, along with true-to-life colors that make your favorite content come to life. The new 98” screen will be available for $3,999.99 at Samsung.com and across select retailers.

“Just a few years ago, 65” TVs were considered ‘big.’ Today, people want even bigger screens. In fact, the number of 98” TVs sold across the industry has grown nearly 15 times since last year,” said James Fishler, Senior Vice President of Home Entertainment, Samsung Electronics America.

“Not all large screens are created equal though. With Samsung, you can count on leading picture quality with advanced connectivity built right in, plus added-value features like endless content with Gaming Hub¹ or free entertainment with Samsung TV Plus. These stand-out features are available on Samsung ultra-large screens and at a variety of price points – so you can shop with confidence for the TV that best fits your lifestyle.”

Super-Big Screens with Dazzling Quality

The Samsung 98” Class Crystal UHD (DU9000) is built with Supersize Picture Enhancer, which optimizes picture quality for the bigger screen. As screens get larger, so do their pixels – Supersize Picture Enhancer can increase sharpness and reduce visible noise across every scene. That means you can enjoy what you’re watching without any pixel distortion, even at the 98” size.

The TV is also designed with 4K upscaling, PurColor, and HDR – transforming all of your content into amazing 4K and offering an even wider spectrum of colors for what’s on screen. Whether you’re bringing the cinematic magic of the movie theater directly into your home, cheering for your team during the big game, or even looking to be totally immersed in your favorite gaming titles – you’ll feel like you’re right in the middle of the action.

With Motion Xcelerator² and up to a 120Hz refresh rate, your gaming experience will be even smoother, too. The screen offers Game Bar built in, so you can easily change the screen ratio for your favorite gameplay, and try features like AI Auto Game Mode, Mini Map Auto Detection, and Virtual Aim Point.
