Samsung QN90B Firmware 1710: Why Is Your TV Running “Hot” and How to Fix It

For Prospective Buyers:

  1. Improved Picture Quality: The update enhances the TV's picture processing, resulting in a more engaging and immersive viewing experience.
  2. Increased Stability: Firmware 1710 addresses bugs and glitches, providing a more stable and reliable platform for users.
  3. Enhanced Security: The update includes security patches to protect against potential threats and ensure user data remains secure.
  4. New Features: The update may also bring new features and enhancements to the TV's smart features, making it more convenient to use.

Some users report their TV remains warm even after being turned “off” (standby). A potential bug in 1710 fails to fully power down the One Connect Box’s main processor, leaving the SoC (system on a chip) running at 1.2GHz in standby. This adds 10-15W of constant heat.
