Television Brands: A Deep Dive into Samsung’s S95D OLED

The Samsung S95D OLED stands out as a top-performing television, boasting impressive picture quality. Utilizing a QD-OLED panel, it delivers perfect blacks in dark rooms and vibrant, lifelike colors in HDR content, surpassing traditional WOLED panels in brightness. Its wide viewing angle ensures consistent image quality from any seat.

Unlike some high-end Television Brands, the S95D lacks Dolby Vision support, opting for the less prevalent HDR10+ format. It also omits DTS audio formats, necessitating a receiver for DTS audio playback from physical media. However, its gaming capabilities are exceptional, featuring four HDMI 2.1 ports for 4k @ 144Hz, VRR support, low input lag, and incredibly fast response time.

The S95D distinguishes itself further with a matte screen coating, effectively minimizing reflections in bright rooms. This feature, however, impacts contrast, resulting in grayish blacks in brighter environments and diminishing the typical OLED impact. The trade-off is balanced by the exceptional dark room performance inherent to OLED technology.
