Hey everyone! Thanks as always for all the great comments! As someone has pointed out, the Auto Mode didn’t trigger the Tv to cover BT. 2020, which I absolutely SHOULD have caught. But I was kinda flying since I had to wait for a replacement. With BT 2020 engaged it will cover in the 90s. I’ll go over this in the VS. with the G3!

I am glad that you are finally taking TV reviews seriously and giving it the emotional depth it needs 😔

Our verdict on the LG G3 vs. Samsung S95C duel A look at the final scores reveals: The LG G3 and the Samsung S95C lead the field of the best TVs and would win any other comparison with the competition. The differences between the two top models are minimal and the price for both is just under 3, 000 euros. Even when it comes to picture quality, which is the decisive argument for many, the televisions are on par. So which TV is best for you depends a lot on your needs. If a well thought-out remote control for linear operation is important to you, we recommend the LG G3. The remote control of the Samsung S95C is designed for streaming and otherwise seems notchy. If you want to save on a soundbar for the time being, you will get better sound with the Samsung S95C. If you already own a soundbar that works with either the Q Symphony or WOW Orchestra, we recommend that you use the corresponding TV model. If you want to put the TV on a dresser, you will be happy with the stand of the Samsung TV. With the LG G3, you have to invest an additional 200 euros for a stand. It is exactly the opposite if you prefer wall mounting. The design of the LG G3 is precisely designed for this and includes everything that is necessary for perfect installation.

I ordered the S95C this morning and then I saw your review. Now I am really looking forward for delivery. 😊

I have the first gen qd-oled from samsung. Absolutely love it. Not a fan of the user experience when it comes to Tizen. But, I don’t do much with it as far as swapping inputs or apps.
It’s fantastic. The 2nd gen looks even sweeter!

[shroey]

I've made my decision. The A95L will be too expensive for me and I was debating for a while between the G3 and the S95C. I decided to go with the 77' Samsung simply because of the versatility that the one connect box will provide for my living room setup. My current living room TV is a 55' Q6F from 2018 so I can't wait! 😊

[Monkeyseemonkey]

Haha love this intro. Good to see you injecting more of your personality into these reviews 👍

[ibazulic]

Best intro ever! Also, I just bought a 65'' S95C and it will be delivered tomorrow! So excited!

The thing that blew me away about this tv was its viewing angles. I thought nothing could beat oled tv viewing angles but the qd oleds sh!t on every TV in this regard. I saw no noticeable degradation of brightness when looking at this tv from the side and because it’s so bright it really stands out next to any TV next to it (like at Best Buy or Costco).

My biggest concern with Samsung TVs though, is its reliability and consistency in panel quality.

I still have a LG C2 42” for pc use, bought it the day it came out.
Recently got calman home and calibrated every mode, i’m so happy with it except for one thing.
I would love a 42” size pushing 1500+ nits as well.
Would make a great gaming experience.

Your reviews are absolutely fantastic. There are so many points in this video that were really helpful. The extra attention detail, like panning the static and active is just second to none

It is time Simba. Im rocking a 43 Samsung from 2011. Thank you for the review. Needed to see this before clicking buy on the samsung store. My last hurdle is the wife ❤👀

[tazanddo]

Thanks DT. This year is the year I replace my 2018 LG C8 Oled.
I am going to buy the Samsung S90C because it has an analogue out, so I can connect my subwoofer to it. Bravo Samsung for thinking about my needs!
Currently, my work around is to use the optical out connected to an audio extractor. This barely works, because I can't control the subwoofer volume as I change the TV volume. That problem will finally be addressed. Again, bravo Samsung!

[luismoya]

Please Caleb, do review the S90C. Just bought it a few weeks ago, and I'd love watching you reviewing it. In the meantime, this helps :)

[lammyjammer]

I actually had an LG E8 fall flat on its face after unboxing the top. Amazingly there was actually no discernible damage when I turned it on. It wasn't until a few years later that I noticed the bottom right corner now shows a bit of blotting... but it's only visible in certain conditions and it's so small that you can't really notice it. Basically the bottom right corner is a bit rounded instead of the sharp angle the other corners have.

It's still going strong and I honestly don't think I need to upgrade this thing for a while longer. No burn-in yet! 😊

[DavidBrown-eohw]

As always, great review. Any plans on doing a 77" S90C review? The 77" has the same panel as the S95C and is $1000 cheaper. Thanks.

i feel you when you said you can’t tell a difference with the dolby vision! i have a samsung and a hisense with dolby vision and watching disney+ marvel made content i would still pick the samsung despite no dolby vision because you get better brightness and a sharper overall picture!

[Bfelix]

After seeing Stop the FOMO prove that there was little to no difference between Dolby Vision and HDR10+, this TV is definitely going to be my choice. Q Symphony helps with the decision also..

[leonidt]

Great video. I'm looking forward to you comparing it with G3 and the future Sony.

[perjuhlin]

Was looking at this tv for black friday sale and wanted to check out some reviews first. Stumbled onto your channel and must say I'm impressed by your work. Great, great review. I will buy the TV today.
