The Samsung S95B (OLED) generally provides a superior viewing experience with deeper blacks, vibrant colors, and better performance in dark environments compared to the Vizio M-Series (LCD). The OLED's higher price reflects its advanced features such as better motion handling, which is ideal for sports and gaming, and wider viewing angles. However, if you often watch TV in a sunny room, the Vizio M-Series with its LCD screen may perform better with glare. The Vizio M-Series is also more budget-friendly, so if cost is a major factor and you primarily watch TV shows or news, it might be a satisfactory choice. Give Feedback

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."
