It worked great for 2 week and then just died. American Express told me they would pick it up. Long story short... after 5 months and a dozen phone calls, the thing still sat in my living room. By then, I found a neighbor who liked to tinker with thin and he fixed it by replacing/soldering a couple of new capacitors. After about 6 months, AmEx kind of gave up and just told me to dispose of the TV anyway that I wanted. They had already refunded me the cost which was over $1000.(in 1980s Dollars, that was a lot of money)
It looked like this one in the picture below:
The reason I want 83 is because I already have a 85 QLED and I'm not one of those people who will sacrifice TV size just to get an OLED..

First off, I also have an LG C1, and I can tell you that the QD tech makes massive brightness and color improvements for OLEDs. Very noticeable and absolutely loved it. There are youtube videos that can give better comparisons and when they say colors and everything are incredible, they're all true, at least in my experience.
The main thing I want to cover here is if, like me, you wanted to use this for PC gaming as well. Like many other Samsung TVs, this supports Freesync, but has limitations with Gsync. So if you're an Nvidia fan, take note.
I'm running a 2070, and while I had no issues with the C1 running 4k @120hz, this was not so with the S95B. Whenever I was at a 4k resolution (3840 x 2160), the TV limited me to 60hz, and therefore could not get more than 60fps. Yes, I was in Game mode, and made sure the HDMI was set to "Input Signal Plus", made sure the Input was in PC mode, and tried this in Console/Game input mode.
In Game Mode UI, (and according to Samsung's guides) the FPS on the monitor can only change if VRR is ON. This is determined automatically by the TV, it's not something you can turn on/off yourself.
Every HD option on my Nvidia settings would not allow me to go above 60hz. But when I select PC options that have a lower resolution like 2560 x 1440, I was finally able to select 120hz, and at the point the S95B switched VRR to ON and I was able to get 120hz and 120 FPS. So I'm able to get 2K @ 120hz, just not 4k @120hz, like I'm easily able to do on the C1.
I have seen a video of another user going through similar headaches on a Samsung Neo QLED (Game interface is identical), and he was able to get 4k @120hz but he had a GTX 3080. So if you have a 3080 or higher, perhaps this may not be an issue for you, if you want to take the risk.
In conclusion, if you're never planning to plug your PC into this with plans of hitting 4k @120hz, then ignore everything I wrote. Otherwise, perhaps only consider this if you have a 3080 or higher, or an AMD GPU.
