At CES 2025, Samsung unveiled its new lineup of smart TVs. The South Korean company is betting on its Vision AI technology, which not only powers “amazing picture quality, but also serves as your adaptive, intelligent companions.” The new lineup includes updates to the Neo QLED 8K, Neo QLED 4K, OLED models, and The Frame TVs.

The AI can pull up the names of actors in TV shows, crank up the brightness, and even dim the lights when you fall asleep

The most affordable Samsung TV this year that features Mini-LED backlighting is the Samsung QN85D. Its previous price was around $1,900 (for a 65-inch version), but has since fallen to between $1,200 and $1,500. As far as 2024 Samsung TVs go, any model below the QN85D will not feature Mini-LED backlighting.
