Let me give you advice. Turn off the Wi-Fi on your TV and turn off the automatic update firmware. Only use TV for "Picture Quality" and use a sound system. Never use the speaker. For streaming apps and everything, use a Amazon fire cube, Nvidia Shield or Apple TV etc. Reason why I suggested this because firmware updates will slow/ruin your TV and apps will say "Netflix is no longer available on this device". That's why I suggested you to turn off the auto-update on your TV. And let your fire cube/NVidia shield/apple tv handles all the streaming apps. You could leave the auto-update on your streaming device. That's fine. Why? Because what would you rather see break faster? Your expensive TV ($1k-3k) or your streaming device, which cost way less than your TV? Think about it.

[@invASIAN95]

@@mr.pangetako Where is your evidence that firmware updates will ruin the TV. This is some kind of conspiracy that needs to be substanstiated, firmware is to fix bugs and improve feature set. Maybe sometimes the odd firmware update may break something but this is on a device/software version case by case basis and I do not believe the above general advice should be followed

[@mr.pangetako]

@@invASIAN95 Apple did it once to slowdown older iPhones. What makes you think they won’t do it on TV? Plus I have a second tv (2017) with me (turn off software updates) And my brother’s tv (2022-2023) is already slowed and laggy menu after the multiple software updates. It’s pretty obvious and you just need common sense to know their intentions. But if you’re just a consumer without knowledge about tech, I won’t explain further.

[@invASIAN95]

​@@mr.pangetako You're comparing Apple's with oranges.. There's so much here that you have not backed up. Your brothers TV slowed down more than your TV?! How does that prove anything scientifically. Are we talking about the same Make and Model? If not, then the comparison is 100% invalid. Of course software updates occasionally make something buggy but 99% of the time they improve features and bugs, hence the reason for them existing. Your advice for using an Apple TV/Shield is correct as i'm an enthusiast and these devices are generally much better, but you state the reason to use them is so they break first instead of your TV breaking first. I dont get it like you're so worried about TV software slowing down so much when you don't even use it in the first place. Someone that is worried about the TV software slowing down would be someone who actually enjoys using the tv operating system not someone who uses an AppleTV or something else. Unless you alsoi think these TV's are somehow designed to blow up with software updates too? 😂

With rear firing speakers on the TVs, would being placed closer to the wall not help the LG sound better than the Samsung? With regard to the Samsung, would placing it in Film Maker Mode improve the colour accuracy?

[@Antibackgroundnoise]

Never mind, the LG has downward firing speakers, one would be kinda crazy to fork out this sort of money for the visuals and then settle for tinny sounding audio from its TV speakers. Movies are 50% visuals and 50% audio, and there are occasions when the audio out does the visuals. Our eyes follow our ears to wear the story lives.

All the flagships are great. Glad they are all upping their processing . Imagine Samsung next year model will be a step up. Really buy for the price in your country and what you need. Seems many like the S95D for gaming. LG G4 seems a great allrounder. I see no reason to pay a big Sony tax ( thankfully they have dropped prices in my country on the A95L models ). There is no one winner. Others will choose a 98" monster. good times

Why the samsung is more pixely is because of pixel layout which is different. More pyramid shaped. Motion: lg getting better and better..

[@adamdooley3044]

Got an S90D in the office and G4 in the living room. Watched the same 4k content and the LG seemed more color saturated and the S90D seemed a tad brighter which was crazy to me.

[@gordonfreeman5958]

Alot of people go on about how QD-OLED has much better colours than WOLED and use that to say that this Samsung is better than the LG. Do you actually notice a difference in colour brightness/intensity/realism or whatever between them when at their best?

[@kjm0227]

I have a Sony a95L (2023) QD OLED as well as a Sony A8H WOLED from 2020. Obviously the a95l is master series and the A8H is not and is 4 years old, but I do notice a big difference in color volume and brightness between the two. With an LG G4 you likely won’t notice as much of a difference with proper settings but colors will look (in my opinion) a more vibrant on a QD OLED vs WOLED. You can ramp up saturation on the LG to match vibrancy but the colors won’t be as natural anymore and the image won’t look as good (again in my opinion). If not being watched side by side with a QD OLED you’d never know the difference I don’t think. And the G4 has superior processing and upscaling vs any tv on the market except maybe the A95L. The MLA tech is pretty cool. I’d say the A95L is still the best all around tv on the market but LG is very very close and costs less. Just depends what you prefer. Clarity and sharpness (LG) or color pop (Samsung). Samsung has equal color pop to the A95L but lacks processing ability. The A95L is as close as you will get to both color and processing being top of class but then you don’t have all the gaming features of Samsung/LG if that’s important to you and paying way more. Tradeoffs no matter what tv you go with.

[@michaelfoster3441]

Amazing comparison my friend ,both are amazing , I have the Panasonic MLA MZ2000 and the Sony A95L and the Panasonic is the best tv in my house ,there processing when with details and skin tones is a just a little bit better than Sony , Both have similar approaches when it comes to processing , the difference with Panasonic is they are going to push the brightness and accuracy .Sony preserves there brightness to make sure there tvs are accurate.

This pinkish image on the Samsung is horrible. There has to be something wrong in the settings (?)

[@paultasker7788]

Sounds like the biggest difference is the white balance and the settings and you can tweak them. Neither of these has the lovely ambilight of my philips 808 which adds something to the picture. Processing is certainly important. Right now my philips 808 (uses LG c3 midrange panel) easily beats my LG C9 easily for HD TV content and KZbin I have in another room. But not with Disney plus where the LG picture is amazing and philips merely very good. Processing makes a big difference. Default settings vary a lot between the brands. Philips default is amazing with some stuff and awful with others, set up to wow you! and if you're not willing to customise do not buy a philips. But once customised is really nice. LG tends to set TV up for more natural picture. LG Software and apps are very good. LG probably a very safe bet for most. They've been making oled panels for a long time now and know how to get the best from them. Well made. Got 3 in the family about 4 to 6 years old and no issues with any of them (earliest being C8), had lots of issues with C6/7 burnin initially. But none on any of our sets. Even been using the 55 C9 as a computer monitor and with games console.

[@paultasker7788]

True, seems set up very warm. That's what LG does really well. Provide something that works well without tweaking and really well with tweaking whereas it seems other companies (I have an LG C9 and a Philips OLED) haven't mastered a sensible default setting yet! Philips don't even get rid of shadow noise leaving compression art effects. However switch that on (why the heck is it disabled by default! To get 0.1 percent extra sharpness?) and problem is solved. Whereas LG works. Picture is very subjective. I like a slightly boosted natural image but certainly not garish/massively over saturated. They always say use filmmaker or cinema mode which I absolutely hate! I suspect LG has improved the default over time. I seem to remember my families C8 almost requiring you to need sunglasses to watch on default but that wasn't the case with my C9.

I’ve owned both LG oled & Samsung. You can’t go wrong with either but on a uniformity level Samsung was far superior for me. My time with LG was blighted by pink & yellow tint on a white background which for me was super distracting. My current 77S95c has the best full field uniformity I’ve seen. To iron out any motion issues just set judder to +2/3. Also I’ve had mine professionally calibrated & the overall image is a thing of beauty. He does make a valid point in the video.. for some reason QOLED shows up a slightly reddish tint on camera but it’s not visible in real time viewing.

I have an 83" G4 and a 77" S90C. I have the judder set to +2. Its perfectly fine but still has some soap opera and the motion definitely isn't as smooth and refined as the G4. Maybe the S95D is better? Not sure.

[@trevhib]

Shame you had an LG panel with poor uniformity. I have a 77" G4 and I'm not aware of any issues or any off-angle tinting folk talk about. I tend to be very exacting about what I buy but I don't see any problems in this regard, with my unit at least.

[@stevieh771]

@@trevhib I had 3 LG exchanges. Even the fourth I settled on had slight pink tint & noticeable banding & it’s very distracting. One panel I had the pink tint covered nearly half the screen so when any snow scenes etc were showing it looked awful. It is all panel lottery of course but this was my first Samsung oled & it was the cleanest panel I’d ever seen with zero tinting & banding.

I have an S95C TV. Can you send me the settings so I can benefit from your beautiful eyes?

[@trevhib]

@@stevieh771 I'm glad you're sorted and happy. The immaculate uniformity on the QD-OLEDs is one of their best attributes 👍

[@CristianoTerlizzi]

The Samsung S95D is the most maligned TV of 2024, this comparison is simply misleading because the color comparison cannot be based on standard mode without a minimum change to the settings. Another reason for hatred towards this TV is the matte coating, which in reality is absolutely not noticeable when there is little light or in a totally dark ambient. The picture quality on the Samsung is fantastic, I own the 77" and it's an amazing TV, totally love it!

@@CristianoTerlizzi thanks for your opinion.

[@ricarmig]

Both are great but the Samsung has way more color depth and can be tuned to anyone’s preferences. Nevertheless I hate Samsung’s UI and if I had to buy one today, I would need to look in depth both live. I have one S95B and the UI is nasty, everything else is great!

[@masomaf]

Samsung cant build good software.. first glance looks nice, when you go deeper you will see that things are not as good.

[@MISTERMASTER1234]

QD-OLED wins hands down.

[@Jodez23]

Standard mode is not the most accurate mode for any TV.

[@lorenzovida6410]

Thanks for your videos. I much prefer LG, much more natural colors, excellent image quality, it seems great contrast and dynamics. Samsung good quality, but colors too exaggerated and unnatural.

[@fawkkyutuu8851]

QD-OLED you could probably tone the color down however much you want to be more natural , but the LG/WOLED you can never add more color to match the QD-OLED no matter what you do.

[@MrStrictlyOLED]

@@fawkkyutuu8851Very True I agree 100pct I rather have more where I can tone it down if I have too then try to crank up the color but won’t ever get get close to QD OLED colors and I’m saying that having both LG and Samsung

[@skolvikings5263]

So outdated woled is the way to go????

[@troudefion7069]

When lg will make QD OLED that will be the end of samsung oleds 😂 because they will make it with no pink filter and more brightness

[@tvfanden8958]

Samsung in compare to LG looks like a mid-range TV for a premium price. No Dolby vision support, no DTS, only 2 HDMI 2.1 ports with 40 gbps vs 48 gbps to LG, besides LG has 5 year warranty for the panel. The real competition for LG G4 would be Sony A95L/Panasonic Z95A- not S95D

[@AmurTiger-vm5dy]

Yes😊

[@Sicario-Gamer]

Actually the Samsung has 4 HDMI 2.1 ports. Picture is also way better than the LG. (I'm comparing the S95D to the LG G4)

[@ahmet_10]

Yes, s95d is better than primitive woled panel g4, g4 looks budget tv compared to qd oled s95d

[@tvfanden8958]

@@ahmet_10 G4 has MLA panel and im brightness is destroying S95D. Besides how can S95D does not support Dolby vision and DTS in Samsung premium TV?

[@ahmet_10]

@@tvfanden8958 mla is still woled, color brightness of s95d is significantly better, dts is not important, most of contents are for dolby atmos(5.1), i am sure you dont know what dolby vision is, you need lots of content(there is not)+need 5000 nits tv at least, there is no tv that reaches that brightness, woled panel cant even produce 300+ at colors like yellow, qd oled can, there is hdr10+ if hdr is not enough, at 2024 tech you dont need dolby vision
