In April, we reported on the release of Samsung’s 2023 midrange QLED TV lineup, but one model that wasn’t available at that time was the 98-inch 98Q80C.
However, it’s now June and Samsung has not only added this model to the mix but is running a pre-order promotion (more on that at the end of this article).
