The Samsung S95B (OLED) delivers superior overall picture quality and exceptional performance in dark environments due to its OLED screen, which provides perfect blacks. It's particularly suited for movies and series enthusiasts who will appreciate the vibrant colors and deep blacks. It's great for gaming too with its high response time and low input lag. On the other hand, the Samsung QN90B (LCD) is a better fit for bright rooms thanks to its higher brightness levels and better handling of reflections. It also tends to be somewhat less expensive, making it a cost-effective option for those who prioritize value and enjoy watching content in well-lit spaces. If precise colors straight out of the box and wide viewing angles are crucial for you, the S95B stands out. But if you are concerned about screen burn-in potential or need higher brightness for sunny room use, the QN90B could be the safer bet. Both TVs have good sound quality, support various HDR formats except Dolby Vision, and have HDMI ports capable of the latest standards for gaming and video. Give Feedback

USA Today

Michael Desjardin | October 2022
"The QN90B delivers one of the brightest pictures we’ve ever seen, showcasing HDR content better than just about every LCD/LED TV on the market. If all you’re planning on doing is watching cable TV, broadcast channels, and a fair share of streaming shows or movies, the QN90B is sure to impress. All four of the QN90B’s HDMI 2.1 ports support 4K gaming at 120fps a centerpiece feature of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5."

Business Insider

Steven Cohen | March 2023
"Samsung's S95B is easily one of the best high-end 4K TVs on the market. S95B is able to achieve industry-leading color performance and a brighter screen than typical OLEDs. In fact, the display's OLED color coverage is nearly in a class of its own. The S95B is a beautiful TV, even when it's off. The display has a pleasing, minimalist design with nearly bezel-less borders and an impressively thin profile."
