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!!!

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...

Tbh I would get an s90c all day. I prefer that image I don't want an overly brightened oled that has issues in low luminance color. Which is literally my favorite part of an oled.

[dperr]

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

[cuzr]

I bought the g4 but just talked my dad into buying a 65 inch s90c. It was on sale for 999. Seemed like a good deal.

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 YouTube. Is it just the camera picking it up? Same question with the green tint-G3

[Beariam]

How can you tell which gen screen you are getting?

[meho]

It would be awesome to compare S90C to LG G2, since they are similarly priced.

[techmeout]

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 YOUTUBE, sports and movies between the 95C and G3?

Happy for you for what you are doing with your channel. Much continued success.

Since LG has an issue with dimming the picture in game mode, why not show it in standard picture mode with MLLA on as well? Is the performance as good or worse than being in game mode?

[Kevfactor]

loving my 77 inch s95c. it was 1k more than i'd like but the colors are so nice for gaming :)

[zmanhuber]

I'm a little confused about the gaming part...didn't exactly make sense. I'll say after seeing them both in store, G3 definitely gave me the feeling I was looking out a window, not at a screen. Sorry, for me that can't be beat. Although S90C was my second choice in the whole store (well, I didn't look at any insanely expensive models in the "dark room" lol)! Can't wait to get G3 hopefully in coming months

[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.

[krisnyc]

I wonder if it's still the old panel in the 65 inch size

[espartacos]

I have a Sony 65" TV in my living room and for gaming I picked an OLED LG monitor the burn in prevention in their OLED drove me to choose LG above all other brands

[conraddevera]

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?)

[BladeRunnerJP]

Hi Kg I recently bought a Lg g3 how can I verify if my tv has the green tint do you recommend a specific scene or test?? Thanks

[ahmedtanveerkool]

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...

[Daywalker]

I bought the S90C two weeks ago, and it's absolutely incredible, even with the out of tue box settings. I spent 30 minutes applying some suggested settings from another youtuber and IMO it looks better than both of the displays in this comparison.
