Seeing the second best QD Oled from Samsung holding its own against the very best from LG says a LOT!!! Not to mention gaming features and performance. And all that for around $1000 less. To me, the Samsung S90C is the TV of the year in terms of dollar to performance ratio…. That is the one I’m buying!!!

[@ltxdaniel]

I’m trying to decide on the 77 s90c or lg c3 77

[@revotuberacer]

@@ltxdaniel there is no contest there. While they are both intended to “compete” against each other, the QD-Oled is way ahead for the regular Oled found on the C3. Samsung simply went beyond everyone else with this new screen generation. In fact, the difference between the S90C and the S95C is can be so little at times, it almost makes no sense in getting the S95C when you take their respective prices into consideration. To me, the S90C is the one. I believe the only two TVs that might be considerably better that the S90C will be the Sony A95L and the G3. Of course, their prices will also be considerably higher as well.

[@559925]

In my country G3 is like 1300 usd and Q95c is like 1000. It's not that much of a difference.

[@trayvonlittle9326]

@@559925I went with the g3 just for webOS alone. But it’s also brighter than the s90c has a better form factor and it comes with a 5-year manufacturer warranty on the panel. That warranty alone justifies the $300 imo. The s90c may have more color saturation but it’s over pronounced, I prefer a more realistic picture.

[@urklenurkle]

@revotuberacer what is this foujddd upon? C3 and s90c are basically identical on rtngs

[@AstroTop97]

The depth of color in the S90C just really brings me in more than the G3. My one concern is the pink tint on the S90C. How noticeable is it in person? I didn’t really catch it in a retailer. But I can usually see it on KZbin. Is it just the camera picking it up? Same question with the green tint-G3

[@paulmidgley8040]

No pink tint on mine. It's feckin delicious. And I didn't think my ps5 and series x could look so good. I was emotional the first time I played cyberpunk on it.

I was also considering the S90C but in the end settled witht he C3. Yes, more expensive and sure the S90C is a fine TV. But I just dont like the oversaturated Colors, I like the more natural look of the LG OLEDs all a long. I dont know why all go crazy about brightness now when watching in darker rooms or at the evening anyway most of the times. I use my C3 on like 40% brightness for Normal Content and between 60 and 80% for HDR and Gaming 🤷‍♂️ Dont need the full light flood in my face, that's hard on my eyes 😂 The Software/Interface of Samsung is not really to my liking and many people complaint about quality Issues. I love my C3 and to me it has the best picture in this Price Range for my Liking. Love it and can higly recommend to just go by whatever you personally like more and not what some measurements or whatever say. That just made it unnecessarily hard for me for no reason. Wanted the C3 from the beginning...

[@chrismiranda5648]

I have a 65” C3 that I purchased on launch, just moved into our new home and decided we needed a larger size for the main living area so opted for the 77” s90c being that I already have the C3…why not see what Samsung has to offer. And whoa! Two very different televisions! I wouldn’t say one is better than the other but they both display pictures very differently even when calibrated. Highly depends on what kind of media you watch and what you’ll use them for. In our main living area, we’ll mainly be watching HDR movies with my Sonos setup, plus the room is covered with windows so very bright. I just knew the 90c was the better option for my scenario at least.

[@davidz6576]

@@chrismiranda5648 ye it always comes down to your usecase, that's the point I was trying to say. I just like Natural easy on the eyes watching and Samsung was too flashy for me. And i mainly watch Anime on Crunchyroll or KZbin or sometimes a movie maybe from prime. I dont even have the 4k FireTV 😂🤷‍♂️ Now I also bought a PS5 and for the games I play the picture is absolutely amazing! As long as everyone is happy with his choice and when reviewers just state objective differences everything is fine to me. 🙂

But whatever, I am happy with the C3 and dont want to own the Samsung at all, hearing about all the quality issues and problems with first gen panels and whatever. + The Software I don't like.

The LG appears to have more details and more accurate colors. Or at least it appears more natural to my eyes

[@zmanhuber6924]

Same when I saw it in store. I'm most likely getting G3. S90C was my second pick, but the G3 just looked like you were looking through the screen and I'd say S90C looks slightly more unnatural to those like me with sensitive (to many things) eyes. And what he's saying about game mode made no sense

[@lennieb7367]

I totally agree and feel the same after seeing them both side-by-side. When the G3 on the right has a better picture, brighter, more details, and is more realistic looking than the S90C on the left, but someone says "The S90C is more accurate according to the computer", I always ask "who programmed the computer?". 🤷

[@techmeout1362]

Loved this comparison KG. It was one that i was really looking forward to. I saw the G3 in person for the first time along with the S95C. I'll tell you, if i hadn't known that the G3 was an OLED i would have thought it was an LCD. I can't see a reason to go the LCD route any longer. The 95C along with the 90C were amazing too and i could barely tell them apart to be honest. The 95C may have been a hair brighter in some scenes, maaaaybe. In the end, my eye was continually drawn to the LG due to brightness which surprised me. What are your thoughts for a non-gamer watching KZbin, sports and movies between the 95C and G3? Happy for you for what you are doing with your channel. Much continued success.

[@ericadame4885]

I want the G3. I have the S95b and its very bad on reliability , also Samsung has a one year warranty whereas LG has 5 years.

[@Dr.WhetFarts]

G3 performs mediocre in gaming. Lacks colors and brightness. In movie modes, G3 does not come close to QD-OLED colors anyway. Brighter, yes, but white light only coming from the white subpixel drowning the other colors even more. QD-OLED has like 3-4 times the brightness on RGB subpixels, which is why colors are way better. Stop with the BS. LG have same warrenty on all like Samsung. Only G series gets 5 years and it's limited warrenty (you pay after 3 year for any cost). A, B and C series have shittty warranty.

Only reason I'm even considering switching to the S90C is because of the chrominance overshoot that you get with W-Oleds. Almost all TV shows these days contain a lot of dark scenes that are compressed and these really do not look good on W-Oleds. This is not something you mentioned in your comparison. Also wondering about reflections - I know the earlier model Samsung's looked grey in brighter viewing conditions - is this still the case with the S90C?

From my understanding.. S90C might be little gray-ish.. because the coating on the screen, and might be because the QD-OLED (1st gen) But this only appear in mid-high lightening in your room So, recent S90C (late 2023) already using 2nd Gen QD-OLED (which doesn't have this issue according to some comments)

Nice review... I had both TVs in 2023, but had to return S90C, specially once you have experienced G3... unparalleled and exceptionally crisp and bright display of G3 is faaar superior than Samsung... MLA just makes the display much more crisp and brighter... moreover, samsungs software gave a hard time, its slow and is stuck at times, have to plug it out and plug it in to reset... never experienced that with LG G3... Ambient mode of samsung sucks... whereas LGs screensavers are more friendly... gaming mode is very similar for both...

A very nice video. There are a lot of variables for PQ but from your video the G3 has better whites, highlights and is less dull overall than the Samsung but both tv's look great. I did pickup a 83" G3 for 3700 out the door but you can get the Samsung for much less. My last tv was a Samsung and had to be repaired after 2 years. I just wish the LG had better on board sound considering the set is being sold for 5k. I do have a 5.1 setup but many times we just use the onboard sound.

with all the oleds, which one has a better handling of darker details? that's the one thing I dislike, the term is crushed black (am I right?)

[@lewisevander]

I saw the s90c next to a c2 at the store that day. What I noticed is that the 3d depth on it in a bright room is non existent. The c2 looked 3d and so did my c1 at home. For a fair comparison I only played videos from the hdr x channel on yt. Now I'm not sure about the depth differences in a dark room but it was definitely lacking in a bright room. That for me is the biggest disadvantage on the qd oled the color was amazing though. Im surprised that no reviewer has mentioned the lack of depth on the s90c.

[@mexdrago3009]

Waiting for A95L reviews, but I don’t expect miracles this year, especially concerning the expected price and situation, that recent top models are getting close in IQ department, but lets see. I don’t trust Samsung though and quite some reviews only talk about the PQ but ignore that a TV is a complete package and many keep it for a long time.

Nice balance of color, blacks and brightness 5. Better game mode where in addition to the 144 it also trumps the g3 with its color where the g3 looks flat. 6. Better reflection handling 7. Samsung Neural Processor ( Yes it’s not Sony-like but it’s up there right behind it) 8. Better Panel Uniformity unlike the G3 with pink and green tinting and banding issues. (This last point is the “mic drop” point why I personally could never choose a w-oled over a QD-OLED panel) The S90C is just checking more boxes.

Hye, I'm considering to buy between 55" LG C2 and 55" Samsung S90C. The price is about the same in my country. Can you recommend to me which tv is the best for me? I mostly use the tv to play PS5 and watch netflix or disney hotstar. Thank you.

I'm confused, every other reviewer ive seen has put the G3 as the gaming TV of the year even when comparing to the S95C.

[@jaynotification]

With Samsung it's always a question of are the colors as they are due to the QD OLED panel or Samsung software over saturating the colors. I have a S95B 65" (and no bend 😂) and love it . But I would love to go back to LG at some point.

[@NexGenTek]

Uniformity is the huge difference I'll never go back after wasting my time with the G3

[@seifyasser2225]

No because even if you try to saturate the LG you'll never be able to obtain the same colors on the qd-oled

[@OlaJustin]

My S95B is bright enough. I have it turned down almost always. I mean, if you are living outside without curtains, dont buy an OLED. The OS kind of sucks but you get used to it. I have an Android TV 4K dongle as a backup to get all apps and all versions of the apps. They can vary between the two OSes. The ABL is irritating though. Its partially a fault of directors and editors not knowing how OLED works and/or taking it into account during editing. Its an OLED thing but I do believe Samsung is quite agressive in its implementation. I wont turn it of in seevice menu even though I can. Not until the factory guarantee is donzo. The picture is stunning at max brightness with HDR content. But after a few months, when your eyes are like "wtf let us rest" and you turn the brightness down, its bloody perfect. You can make OLED look so natural its crazy. Like the picture is painted in front of you. Now, you just got to live with the stress of the panel slowly getting worse and worse. 😂

[@jdx4174]

A better comparison would have been to NOT include any description until the ending, so there is no bias present when watching the differences. I personally ordered the G3, but only because it is better in retaining detail in darker scenes, where the s90c in losing some. If you don't care about that, don't bother going for the G3. I think the S90c was by far the best value proposition with high end oleds this year. We will see how happy i am once the G3 arrives in the coming weeks.

@@PedroMartins-yv1lv Thanks for info, the ASBL limits the brightness based on static images like logos and such, thus the "S" in aSbl. I don't mess with service menus. I'm bright enough to know I don't know what I'm doing most times when it comes to technical stuff so service menu is out of the question, which leaves me to picking the TV with the least amount of brightness limiting.

Why would you make such false claims, no video or anyone with visual proof has shown this. Please stop spreading a false narrative

I would love to see the comparison from the Neo QN85C vs last years model

[@issaciams]

Can someone tell me what the point of game mode is? Why is low latency important when playing games? Is it mainly for competitive fps games or does it actually matter with single player games too? I only play single player games. When I turned on game mode on the CX, it made the graphics noticeably worse but there was really no difference in how Tears of the Kindgom played on Switch so I turned that back off. So what gives?

[@TechWithKG]

Responsiveness is the main reason, when you move the control stick you will feel a delay if you are not in game mode, it can be more difficult to play anything that requires a quick reaction like turning or corner or dodging an attack. You’re less likely to notice it on a more casual game that is slower in pace. Try playing something like Mario kart outside of game mode and you’ll have a much more difficult experience.

[@issaciams]

@TechWithKG I'm 41 years old. My responsiveness is nowhere near 5ms or whatever the input lag is anyways. I am not a competitive gamer and play single player fps games on normal not hard. I do play fighting games though and input latency there could be a problem but again I don't need to beat every fighting game on max difficulty anyways. I just don't like how much worse the visuals are with game mode. I am most likely going to buy the LG G4 at the end of the year and I believe I can use low latency mode on my PC and just ignore the game mode on the TV if it still looks as bad as my CX. Thanks for the help. 👊

[@thezbrown1988]

My use case is mostly streaming shows, movies, and YT; then occasional gaming. The gaming features being broken right now IS a downer for the G3, but I feel it could be fixed with an update. But with the need for up scaling, I feel that the G3 is the better choice for me.

[@Dr.WhetFarts]

Its so funny that people keep thinking LG is good for gaming when they fck up all the time in gaming. Samsung is clearly superior for gaming. I have S95B with service menu hack (no ABL and full brightness) and it absolutely destroys any WOLED in gaming using 4K/144 Hz at 4:4:4 Chroma and RTX 4090 OC'ed. Colors are downright amazing, responseness is insane and brightness is so high that I actually needs to tone it down at night. People are absolutely clueless if they truly think LG is superior for gamers. Just look at G3 in game mode vs last years QD-OLED at stock, A95K and S95B, both destroy G3 in gaming with like twice the brightness and way better colors. LG needs to wake up.

QM8 is an average tv at a good price. Even the most entry tier Oled is superior from any manufacturer.

After owning higher end lcd or even Oled, I cannot recommend anything from TCL/Hisense as your main display when spending that kind of money $2k+
