No, this one is QDOLED Gen3 1500 nits panel. The biggest problem is I was expecting a 2000 nits panel because on the forums everyone was saying that in the US, the 65" was for sure 2000 nits panel. The biggest difference is full screen brightness 300 vs 200 roughly

In some countries, the only QDOLED panel for S90Ds is the 65". That's from comments on the channel.

A95L is over priced, has its own flaws and bugs that no one seems to like to mention 😂 and missing half of the gaming features that G4/samsung have.

[@jeffreymorgan1334]

​@pboissie As a prospective LG G4 buyer, I appreciate the helpful info. I've been disappointed by my experience with Samsung this month. I returned a 55-inch QN90D because of some very bad vignetting on the edges of the screen and plan on returning a 55-inch S90D because of it having a Gen 1 panel. Due to the fact that the G4 stock brightness is higher than what my S90D would be with the ANA PEAK 1023 mod (among other reasons), it seems like the best option. I just need to wait for the prices to come down again.

[@pboissie]

@ yea man i try to be objective too, and i just got the G4 to replace my old LG C9. Ive had it for a month now and love it! I already have a Samsung S95b first gen qdoled for a year now, so far so good but i made sure to get extended warranty for that as ive had samsungs fail on me in the past, but never had an LG fail on me. Only gripe with s95b is after they nerfed brightness in an update, so HDR movies look darker in general than i would like, and i hate to use contrast enhancer which makes it much brighter but inaccurate i guess, but oh well. For gaming with HDR it looks good though with Dynamic tone mapping on for HDR. Ps: once G4 came down from 2300 for a 55, down to 1800 i just pulled the trigger. Not sure how lower it can be priced beyond that, until nxt year when G5 drops, and if LG does qdoled then ill be pissed 😡 but i already own 1 qdoled atleast

[@armylrs2391]

You should make the jump to mini LED. I can almost guarantee you would like it better than OLED tech because it can do 95% of what OLED can do and a whole lot that OLED cannot do. You get beautifully stable brightness aka far far less ABL, amazing dark room and bright room performance, vastly better HDR experience with specular highlights that are on a completely different level, vastly better peak brightness, better color gamut coverage, no risk of burn in, way better shadow detail, better panel longevity... You're basically trading all of these massive advantages in for 5% better black level performance that you will never even notice.

It's kinda funny that you mentioned that a dead pixel was bothering you, but a line in the middle doesn't. I know what you mean, though. I had to return a 55" C3 because of a dead pixel. Replaced it with a 65" C4, but that had the green tint. Now I have a 65" S90D, but Samsung updated that on their own even when I had auto-updates on. That's dirty! Are they even allowed to do that? I now have it offline. But I'm looking forward to seeing what you're gonna do with your replacement S90D. I'm still under return period. But it's a hassle packing up, returning, and unpacking.

[@plasmatvforgaming9648]

The line in the middle is a deal breaker, I'll buy another 65 to have 3 and then 2 lines on the side should make it tolerable. They come to pick it up and I don't have to put it back on the box. Sometimes depending on who comes They even install the new one

[@JimProfit357]

Low lag frame generation is the future for HDR pictures that have decent motion, and Samsung has a head-start for that no doubt. That much is a fact. The problem is, in order for it to make the biggest difference, we would need panels with refresh rates that go much beyond the input signal (like, we'd accept the fact that the hypothetical TV can only take 4K120 real, but low-lag interpolation creates 3 intermediate image on its native 960hz panel). We're definitely not there yet, and I will wait a couple of years with my GX and G1 before we see where this goes. Since I mostly play PC, GPU-based and software frame gen are available to me to reach those 120fps which doesn't make a world of difference compared to Samsung's 144hz maximum, and I still get to sacrifice brightness for motion when needed. Though I acknowledge the peak brightness levels are nowhere close to begin with. I still have some hope that some LCD monitors with optimal backlight strobing will give me CRT-like motion clarity with HDR400-level brightness (or even 800 if we're optimistic) all with better-than-before black levels due to mini-LEDs, but for a no-compromise HDR experience (i.e., in the 1000-2000nits ballpark), we just need much higher panel refresh and major improvements in on-display low-lag frame generation...

[@hanspennyloaf335]

Just buy an A95L Edit: Not being able to disable asbl on the A95L is inconsequential because the heatsink layer is so efficient that unless you walk away from your screen for 15+ minutes on a completely static image, it's never going to dim.

[@scottsacala]

The fact that they do automatic updates even when you have it off is dirty. I disconnected my internet because of that.

Buy a Sony QDOLED as it will be QDOLED not WOLED and it will have good quality control. Dude shits on Sony prices yet had a shit load of problems with his QDOLED from Samsung because they make it cheap by limiting the quality control.

I am never getting another one, my lg g3 has better picture quality than my s90c, ill wait for the g5

[@EverythingPS5Pro]

Important to note: He is comparing QD-OLED to LG C1. LG C1 is trash compared to C4 and G4 in-terms of brightness and Colour Volume WOLED has gotten so much better throughout the years that I believe Ariel should get a second opinion by looking at a LG C4 maxed out. They look the same as a S90D in average brightness APL except for 10% window that is a lot brighter on Samsung and 25% window but 50% and up are the same, so you will not notice the difference in colour volume at all if not shown next to each other, and the difference is not huge. But yes there is a difference, I found a neat way to get my LG C4 200nits brighter full screen by using Vivid Mode Warm 25 and calibrating it using 2point scale calibration and by increasing all low and high scales to +50 on red green and blue, maxing them all out increases luminance and also makes the screen a lot warmer. Ariel you should try it out on you QD-OLED and see if it bypasses the tv peak aswell, if it does and you make a video make sure to give me a shoutout! I am the only one on google talking about this trick 😁❤️ This is not a hate comment I just want people that love there LG to not feel like they need to switch, if you have C4 or G4 stay on LG if you like your tv. Let Ariel have his fun and don’t be swayed to change your own opinions guys ❤️

[@GFClocked]

Except it's not trash as in fact OBJECTIVELY the best gaming tv on the planet for the simple reason it can do bfi af 120hz with 300hz equivalent motion persistance. You can talk about brightness and colors and all of that, but it all pales in comparison to the all mighty motion clarity. If it was a movie watching tv it's another thing, but for gaming id love nothing more than to buy a new tv, but I fukin cant, because these idiots forgot how to make 120hz bfi, it's a fukin joke. I have the top of the line 32" 4k qdoled monitor running 240hz and that still can't beat my C1 at 120hz because it's still not clear enough in motion even at 240hz, so what would I do with a tv that can either do 60hz bfi or plain old 120hz? That's unusable At 60hz I can see each individual strobe without a problem, and 120hz without bfi is a blurry mess.

[@plasmatvforgaming9648]

I wouldn't say the C1 is trash vs the C4, it has far better motion clarity with 120bfi and the Color Gamut is about the same. The peak brightness difference from 800 to 1000 is not a big difference.

[@mariniam]

Time to get a G4! Pls pls I replaced my G1 with a G4 and the difference is mega, colors and brightness

[@plasmatvforgaming9648]

The G4 was 2x what I paid for these. Basically, I bought 2 Samsung QDOLEDs for the price of a G4

[@mariniam]

@@plasmatvforgaming9648 Peace of mind costs money 🙂 How about a G3 ?

[@plasmatvforgaming9648]

I wouldn't recommend a WRGB anymore. QDOLED is far superior, especially when it comes to colors

[@mariniam]

That is exactly why a G4 would be interesting to review from your end. You are comparing a 3-4 year old WRGB to a QDOLED. I have seen the G4 beside the S95D, and the Samsung did not seem far superior, and brightness was equal.

[@m.m.3753]

Hi, did anyone try the little Tool ControlColor? You can Set the Colorgradient to Put Out DCI-P3 or BT.2020 under Windows instead Stock sRGB. Or better, calibrate your Screen with Windows HDR calibration then edit the Profile with ColorComtrol and Set P3 or BT.2020 on oleds. All Looks now nice as it should. Also Set SDR Peak brightness to your max Nits for HDR cause you use the SDR Slider in Windows. Gamma as you Wish, Stock ist 2.2, i have a DARK room and use 2.4.

you are completely wrong. pq curve is 2.2 native.

@plasmatvforgaming9648 but you need to grow and spread your knowledge bro, don't be so proud. It's not a charity, it is sponsoring because people like your content, people want more, you should take the opportunity, eventually it will be life changing for you, and it is very beneficial for your views to have some of your knowledge for different tv models, worst ways, if you build up to much stock you can always sell the tv and give it to charity or people in need, everyones a winner, do it bro!!!

@@Animal_lives_matter you can use filmmaker mode on any other lg to get full colour volume. but for me not nexmcessary. i like the game mode as it is

[@Animal_lives_matter]

@@optimalsettings Yeah but Ariel is using this for games and wants low latency so it must be game mode. On other models even the C4 when you switch to game mode the colour luminance takes a hit, but not on the G4. Classy Tech channel showed this, can't remember the video sorry but he was using an image of red fire to show it. But I think it's a fake artificial limitation by LG cos I can't think of any reason why that should happen in game mode, the panel is native wide gamut it doesn't need any extra processing to keep wide gamut

[@Gurka9999]

You can't fault Samsung based on what you _think_ you might be able to "mod" a QD-OLED to, youre pushing it out of spec. Samsung varying WOLED and QD-OLED in models in the same range is shitty though. At least you can figure it out but by looking at the full model name. (S90DA *E* = WOLED)

Asere no seas tan tacaño y no pierdas más tu tiempo con LG y Samsung. Yo tengo un Sony OLED desde hace tres años y como dicen en inglés "you get what you paid for". Una de las ventajas del Sony es que te deja usar todo los features en game mode. Además de eso, el tone mapping del Sony es muy superior al del LG y Samsung. Con mi PS5 yo uso los HDR settings automáticos y la verdad es que son muy superiores a los de Vincent y los otros KZbinrs. Si te parece que el Sony es demasiado caro, debes mirar el X90l que es un modelo barato y si tienes el espacio te puedes comprar uno de 85" por el mismo precio de un oled 55".

The QC becomes a non-issue when you can replace it or return it to get your money back. The picture quality is the best, especially having the ability to get more brightness and turning off dimming. There's nothing for sale that can beat a 3rd Gen QDOLED that goes beyond 3k nits. Not even Gen2 2000 nits
