    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!

      One big problem with Samsung’s One Connect box is that at my new house that’s fairly higher-end, the wall for the TV is already pre-wired with HDMI 2.1 e-ARC inputs and power, so as much as I would love to get this TV it’s a no go for my installation - which sucks. Hopefully the Sony version is just all built-in like usual.

    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! 😊

    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.

    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 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! 😊

      @@SSNebula I think they don't make them anymore but honestly it was price. If I remember correctly they were the same as the C series of that year but a bit slicker in style being a full slab of glass all the way to the base (it gives the unit a floating effect on the stand) and with better speakers.
      I got it for a good deal shortly after it came out because apparently they weren't moving. The only reason one would buy it is because of looks honestly. The C8 was technically the exact same unit otherwise. You can actually dump a C9 board on these to get full 4k 120Hz out of the panel via HDMI even!
      I think LG realized people weren't willing to pay a bit more just for looks and discontinued them because mine was cheaper than the C8 was at the time.

      @@chris10053 sorry, didn't realize you were only referring to the stand. Yes you are correct, the stand is EXTREMELY nice and durable. Plus leaves room for a sound bar. But my 85QN900C is still not as bright as my 85X95K in the most accurate modes. I can make the Samsung ever so slightly brighter using things like, contrast enhancer, while in "active" tone mapping mode. But all that just to get the "extra" brightness, is strange. I do think it's great with black level and blooming, although still not quite as good as my Sony X95K. But either equal, or so close that I can't tell the difference. Where my Sony destroys the 900C is the motion. It's night and day. So weird that a TV HALF THE PRICE can match the Samsung in every aspect, yet beat it in other aspects.

      There is 1 major difference in that Dolby Vision is the universal standard used by virtually all the studios and streaming services, whereas HDR10+ is hardly used by any of them (Amazon Prime Video being a rare exception).

      I’m thinking that MLA will need to be made available at a lower price on LG’s C series to really bring it into the mainstream. Should that be the case, it’ll give QD-OLED a real run for it’s money.

    The limited brightness may also be due to a lack of an actual heatsink. I think they advertised this year that theres a graphite heatsink but from what ive seen people think its marketing talk for their thermal pad they had last year. Maybe sony a95l has a chance of hitting those peak nits because of the heatsink and because they tamed the brightness on the a95k. Also i went to my local electronics store and was talking with the staff in there and they were saying they had a lot more people bring in there s95B with burn in than A95k or G2 owners. So thats why they kept recommending the other OLEDs to people. But it is still a great TV. Would love a comparison between the s95C and A95L or even s95b and a95k to show whether dolby vision is a big deal though because from Stop the Fomo vid there didnt seem a big difference. But not a lot of recent content showing the difference in todays market

    I got this TV and can't agree more with your review, this TV it's a treat, I'm impress on how punchy, vivid and bright the TV is, viewing angle it's amazing, gaming it's a delight, even the kids loved this, I had to watch Moana around 100 times on my older TV but with this TV Te Ka scenes are something else (the reds and black looked so wow) we are all super happy (even wife changed her mind from "too expensive" to "wow you were right, it was really worth it"), on the downside Tizen is not my favorite a few apps I can't find and old shows like Seinfeld on Netflix looked terrible (maybe I need to change settings but not sure how), sound is not really a problem since we see movies only after getting our kids to bed with modest volume and then play games with gaming headsets, so this fits all my needs. P.S. For installation I recommend watching tutorials on TH-cam. The base is heavy and not easy to assemble, but one connect box is very worth it. I was able to get the 55' for 1.3k around $700 less than Sony 55X90L so I think this was the best for her value

    To be fair their 8K Neo QLEDs are also great. They had punchier colors, brighter details, more HDR impact, better upscaling capability, with OLED-like contrast and black level. There's a little bit of blooming and DSE because it's basically still an LCD but a very very advanced one.

      You are incorrect on several points.
      Samsung Oled has superior Color Gamut and Color Volume vs any Samsung Qled model or any other Qled for that matter.
      Also Samsung Oled definitely has much brighter specular highlights because no LCD as of today can reach that small level detail.
      Even a good lcd at best has a couple thousand dimming zones, Oled has millions of pixels that each illuminate……..
      The only real advantage of the 8K model is overall brightness and of course less likely to burn in, that’s about it.
      Even a 4k QD-Oled is sharper than a Samsung 8K, because of the pixel structure.

So he talked me into a TV with over a thousand positive reviews then brought me a TV with literally only one positive review. Apparently this S94 doesn't have Bluetooth so you wouldn't be able to watch this TV with a wireless headset but I'm not concerned about that. What sold me on the S95 is how bright the screen is. I could have purchased a similar LG for about $300 cheaper but it was a little bit dimmer and I was impressed with the brightness of the S95. Unfortunately there hasn't been anybody to do a full review of the S94 so I'm uncertain if I want to take it out of the box.
