Samsung S95D OLED First Look | Way Better Than You Think

[@Caleb_Denison]

Hey everyone! Just want to make it clear that this TV will get the full treatment in the review (which, at the risk of over-repeating myself, this video is not). I wish you guys could see how brutal we were with the lighting in this video. - or more to the point, I wish you could see how our brutal lightning techniques would have made other TVs un-viewable in comparison. I think that’s something we will show in our review, which will require the purchase of at least one new studio light. 😂😂😂

[@andre_ss6]

Caleb, the issue is that matte coating tends to spread the reflection over a larger area. I think the people who are worried about this (including me) are not worried about big studio lights or sunlight. Someone watching in those conditions obviously wouldn’t be able to watch a conventional glossy OLED. Instead, we are worried about small lights in an otherwise dark room. These are _usually _ not an issue already for glossy panels. Please show a comparison in that scenario

[@vancitycanucks]

Even in the video I could kind of see the issue many of us have with anti-glare in general... Like fully. Like at 6:46 it's very apparent. I have to say, this video, with its promotion....makes me weary that you were paid off to say all this. I'll reserve judgement until these are in person. And I don't see an issue with side-by-side comparison in a home setting (vs stores). If one is perceiveably better...why shouldn't an individual deem it to be superior?

[@andre_ss6]

@@vancitycanucks I agree. Caleb, I choose to believe that you’re just being passionate about the subject, but to be honest it truly gives the impression that you’re giving Samsung some kind of special treatment here.

you need to put it right next to an s95c or s90d with the menu hacked to unlock s95d brightness and show normal viewing (i.e. standard circumstances) to see the differences in appearance. people say this does not matter but it does, it shows clearly what is lost

There’s no way when you see both side by side you’d say the anti glare hurts the tv in any real way and for those stray lights, lamps, smart speakers or whatever that happen to bounce off a glossy screen? You’ll never worry again. Black is still black.

I bought this tv on Friday the day it went on sale from Best Buy. It arrived today. Like he said, the picture is phenomenal! The matte screen produces no issues. The picture quality it supers but the matte screen makes the blacks look even blacker (somehow)! There was a point when I was watching this and Caleb’s skin looks so real like it had texture.

[@mickiemang2621]

@@BarryDeiter ​ @tahseenkarim I'm loving it. The Picture seems just as sharp, the sound is great for me for such a thin tv. I have a sound bar but at night I switch to tv speakers when im going to sleep. The one issue I had was it had a stuck pixel about 2 weeks ago, but I ran the screen maintenance settings over night and its gone. Hasn't popped up since. Also this tv works great for my situation because i have floor to ceiling windows on the same side of the tv so my space would would get very bright. I havent had to close my curtains or adjust tv brightness since i bought this tv and its always on the energy settings. Lastly, the game mode is great for FPS games with the dot. It also has some other features which is cool but i dont use like sending a mini map view to another device like a phone or table for a bigger view of it. You have to sign up for smart things and I'm not doing that. I hope this helped. I'm still waiting for Caleb's actual review.

Day 3 of Samsung First Look - S95D 4K QD-OLED TV! Per this video, the anti-glare implementation is amazing and this is the brightest QD-OLED TV to date! The picture does look really, really great, with good contrast, brightness and color luminance, but I would have to check out that anti-glare in person because I think I did see a small smear (dispersal of light) in the upper middle right side of the screen when showing some scenes with a dark background. Also, once at the top of the screen. It’s a different type of glare, more muted but it kind of smears a little. It is definitely way better than other anti-glare technologies. It would likely be great for a bright room but I don’t know if I would prefer it to the more traditional glossy screen in a light controlled room. In any event, this TV looks really great and I am thoroughly enjoying these daily first looks! Great job, Caleb!

[@EmanuelV-li3vb]

So you won't wait for Sony A95M?

[@gronkymug2590]

Did you have moth-eye screen before? If it is like that one was, then it will look better than anything for anyone who does not actually enjoy dim light and would rather see in reasonably normal light. My TV looked like low res no-HDR OLED thanks to moth-eye alone because moth eyed seemed like it added contrast.

[@Bencet96]

Hi Caleb, I'm watching from Hungary. I really enjoy your videos and these help us a lot with buying great TVs. Thank You for that! I think I'm not alone with the opinion that design matters a lot when these TVs are basiccally in the center of our living area (Like we all see the success of the Samsung Frame for example). I know it is very subjective, but can we get some footage and your opinion around this design topic in the future tests? Maybe the look of the wall mounted TVs (I know it's a lot of plus work)? Samsung's Neo QLED and OLED TVs are really elegant in my opinion and this is a big plus in comparison with Hisense and TCL. I'd love to see the design as part of the competition between the brands. Thank You the great work and keep doing it!

In 2014 I bought the Samsung 65" Curve for our new home because our Family or Great Room has three windows & a glass insert for the door, plus no fourth wall (open floor plan to our kitchen & beyond). Then to add to that, there's a ceiling with six recessed lights. Now to cap our room off, it faces South. While the Curve does well here, the set lacks new technology being ten years old. Based on your initial comments, this S95D OLED may just be the answer to the Curve and therefore an upgrade consideration. I'm sure the price will match the quality and I'll have to wait for a sale to bring it home. Buying a new TV is like buying a new car, as soon as you get home, you'll read about the "next thing" coming out...

[@paulpoppleton1335]

I really love this TV. For me the main reason I considered it was the anti glare matte screen. It works amazingly well. Our tv was almost impossible to use during daylight hours and we had a lot of glare from lights in the evening as well. No problems at all daytime watching and we basically have all windows opposite the tv. We had recently taken down all of our blinds during a window and sliding door replacement and we decided not to put the blinds back up because the room looked so much better without them. When we had the blinds down during the day it helped but without them like I said nearly impossible to watch enjoyably. No issue at all though now with the new tv. From others comments it sounds like they might be missing the mark on some expected features but none of those things were important to me. The display looks amazing and the anti glare works way beyond what I expected I was hoping for a decrease but honestly it is 95% gone in my viewing environment.

[@jbones1453]

Another great video. But I’m hoping you get some time with their Samsung 98” model. Hoping they come out with an improved model this year.

[@quinneverett]

Question: why doesn't the S95D mention Quantum Dots or QD-OLED anywhere on its product page? The S95C does.

[@ram64man]

For me the gloss on g3 looked better, sure you could see some reflections, but that was a real none issue because your eyes adjusted and often ignored the highlight reflections, the big issue is the super low 300 lumins at 100% maybe I’m 90d bias , since I can see a blue shift in whites which I really don’t like

[@darthbroda]

I have a S24 Ultra which also has a new anti reflective screen and it elevated the screen to new heights, more than any brightness bump could have done. If it's the same here I'm buying

[@Getoffmylawnmedia]

I like the idea of OLEDs but I remain wary of burn-in. I work for a retailer, and my job covers of region of stores, so I see a bunch of screens in a bunch of different conditions. Display TVs take more wear generally from the blown-out demo settings vendors like Samsung require, and from their always-on usage. For this reason they're not really reflective of daily living-room capabilities, but I think - as our displays age - they become reasonable barometers for how those living-room sets may look a few years down the line. To that end, I saw a '23 Samsung 90c last week with a panel so overstressed that its brightness had all but disappeared. Details still sharp on lesser screens completely disappeared into blackness on the OLED, and these are across identical display settings. At another location, there's a '23 LG with a text box (ironically about screen cleaning} permanently burned into the image, it's a ghost over all programming. So certainly OLEDs look great, but their recommendation should probably come with the caveat that they may age poorly, and faster, compared non-OLED choices.

[@MiahVun]

Lets see what Sony do with this panel, if the A95L was the best TV ever made, the A95M is likely to be even better. I'd be interested to know how this S95D handles upscaling of lower resolution video, which was a problem for its predecessor

[@nobunaga-oda]

Which one is better for gaming Samsung S95D or LG G4 😮‍💨🤔

[@VivaLaFamous]

Will it be better to go with the 77 S90C or even the 77 S95C instead? Right now the 77 S90C is $2000-$2400. And I’m pretty sure both the S90C & S95C will drop in price by a lot this year!

[@aaronb9630]

Bestbuy has the S89C for $1800 a few times the last few months. It's a S90C with a different stand and they offer free delivery. Black Friday will be the first real sale for this years releases.

[@alandeniston9229]

S89C is the way to go in my opinion. Paid $1800. for the 77" @@aaronb9630

[@sethpatsanza7935]

Overally, I would say new Oled buyers will have a wow experience 100% with this s95d I just like how massive Samsung discounts are... So will wait If I had another oled, I would certainly wait until they bring the flagship processor and upscaler to their oled and I think that's were samsung made a mistake for me but obviously can't say. For me they shud have matched AI processor power to compete with LG new A11, but then Samsung is a QD Oled and also we don't know how the panel lottery goes with their tvs.

[@joseluisburgos1113]

good information, friend I have a question what kind of panel does this smart tv QNC85 65 IPS, ADS OR VA have? COULD I CLEAR THIS DOUBT AND THANK YOU

[@AndrewJohnWard]

Looks like it's the perfect TV and it's only downside is lack of Dolby Vison support. If that even matters or makes a difference at all

[@Sas-wk9lj]

When you watch HDR10+ you can comfortably forget what Dolby Vision is. It's a psychological factor you can live without.

[@AndrewJohnWard]

@Sas-wk9lj Thats true of HDR10+ yes but what about standard HDR10? HDR10+ is no good to me because most blurays only support Dolby Vision or standard HDR10

[@Sas-wk9lj]

@@AndrewJohnWard you have a point there, I was more referring to from streaming perspective.

[@Crashburn162]

Can you please hook it up to a receiver enable CEC and see if it turns on the receiver with the TV remote. Because I have 95B and Yamaha 2050 and it switches the receiver on after 2 minutes by then the TV has changed the sound to TV speakers . The only workaround I've found is switching on the receiver first and then the tv... which is troublesome.

[@shueibdahir]

Watching those youtube HDResque videos doesn't really show off the HDR capabilities. They just blast out brightness with not a care in the world about the dynamic range. Look for videos which seem to have an average brightness of 100nits-200nits that have highlights reaching 1000nits and black levels of 0.01 to 10 nits. This creates a level of depth to the image that makes you think you're looking through glass since the dynamic range is so high. I color grade videos in HDR and am saddened about how midunderstood HDR is

[@godspeedmaximus]

What does the screen look like when it’s off? It’s always bothered me that QD-OLED has those purple/pink reflections compared to WOLED. Does the anti-glare coating make the screen look more “black”?

[@baselluke]

After seeing this, I wonder which is better for gaming, films, and series: the newest LG or the newest Samsung? I mean upcoming models because I currently have the LG CX.

[@nuggyfresh6430]

Amazing thank you!

[@adamm6733]

Will they ever make it larger than 77”? Have a C2 84” in a bright room, this looks perfect, but smaller 😢

[@stephenpatterson8056]

Eventually, but unfortunately not yet. Samsung only manufactures their QDOLED panels in 55", 65", and 77" along with some smaller PC monitor sizes for now

[@gertost]

Worth changing from Lg 65c2 to this or wait a few years more, for even more improvements?

[@Danny75k]

Hi ! Does abl only affect white brightness or does it also affect colors in large areas of brightness ?

[@Acid5782]

Is the beeing most accurate in Warm 1 setting a new thing this year, or does this also apply to previous generations?

[@Caleb_Denison]

To the best of my recollection, this is a new development, and not the case for prior gen

[@ninfreak95]

I have a s90c and warm 2 is the most accurate when gaming. Not sure about filmmaker mode. But you should adjust other settings as well if you really want accurate.

[@Myke-Myke-Myke]

If only Samsung would come to their senses and support Dolby Vision like the rest of the world... I'd even be happy if you could buy Dolby Vision support as DLC, so if you wanted it you could pay for it. But really they should just support it and update their older models via firmware update to support it. Beyond that, it looks like a great set and one I'd consider if it wasn't for the lack of Dolby Vision.

[@iamdmc]

I'd be happy if they did it just to shut up the loud vocal minority who claims it's the only thing that matters

[@tscan1265]

I've seen and old article on DV mentioning it costs a few dollars per set. If this is true there's no excuse for Samsung not supporting it.

[@mannyk6808]

samsung is never going to support dolby vision.

[@jailthon]

These tvs doesn't need dolby vision folks, you should read more about it, it's not the amount of features, but the quality overall, I tested on a store a95l on dolby vision format, and the s95c on its hdr10 decoding, for me , samsung looked better than the darkness of dolby

[@tscan1265]

@@jailthon Bad example. DV on the A95L has been broken since its release.

[@philippeberini2574]

It certainly has one weakness: it's from Samsung. Besides all the sneaky firmware upgrades, Samsung literally just stopped responding to my calls for help for the problems I have with my S95B... Sad, but true.

[@mattspeer01]

Samsung is pretty bad... their build quality and lifespan of their TVs is incredibly subpar. Not sure why people get so excited for buying their junk, especially considering it is so overpriced compared to LG.

[@jblaze600]

Exactly why I stop buying from them.

[@masomaf]

What about motion? Don’t like soap opera effect. Also curious about Gaming Dolby vision Most natural looking and close to intended picture. Samsung phones are known for oversaturations Total quality and lifespan expectations Connections and connections speed Waiting for total review End of this year want to replace my c7 for maybe lg g series but always good to see others. Sony looks good too but expensive and not much hdmi2.1 connections.

[@karrisrihith2112]

Plz review Samsung qn 800D 75inch

[@phillydavison]

Don't see any need to upgrade from the S95C this year especially with the new coating.

[@gurninator]

Have they fixed the flickering you get with variable refresh rate yet? Because this is the only thing holding me back from getting an OLED

[@XBnPC]

Sounds like the non-reflective Gorilla Glass Armor on the S24 Ultra. I guess "they" have finally figured out the whole glare thing. Cooool :D

[@kavkazE]

just bought this tv....feels good

[@jasonhatter9535]

Any idea what the technology behind this anti-glare tech is? Is it something you expect to see in other Samsung models or from competitors? I currently have a Samsung QLED that is a few years old and I HATE the Tizen OS. It is not quick and is often glitchy. I have an extremely bright room, so I would be very interested in something with great anti-glare, but it would be hard for me to stay with Samsung simply because of the OS.

[@bricaaron3978]

You are wasting your money by viewing an OLED is an extremely bright room, or even in a moderately bright room.

[@NajafAliGopang-nb1zu]
