The initial yield rate when mass production started earlier in Fall of last year was 50% and they rapidly improved the yield rate to 85% which is much faster than LG which took them several years for their WOLED tvs. Not to mention the fact that Samsung Display only has one gen 8.5 line producing 30,000 substrates a month compared to LG display with 90k substrates a month. OLED tvs will get cheaper due to economies of scale, so we can see the price of QDOLED go even lower than the price of current WOLED if production capacity is increased.

We will most likely see Samsung Display announce by Q4 of this year or Q1 next year that they'll expand capacity to produce 60,000 substrates per month given that that they sold off their last lcd fab and need to transition to another display technology as soon as possible.

In the long run, if Samsung finishes their research for QNED and irons out all the kinks to enable mass production, we will see an even better display technology. The eventual evolution of qdoled is to replace the oled backlight with leds and it would be a qd-microled/nanoled display which is what QNED is. The equipment for QNED/QDOLED is similar except the expensive deposition machines for OLED are not necessary for QNED so the conversion of qdoled to qned wouldn't be difficult and QNED's launch price should theoretically be cheaper than qdoled. Of course this is likely a couple of years away from now happening the earliest by 2025 or 2026.

They didn't so much nerf the brightness as they improved accuracy. If all you care about is brightness and not picture quality, then buy an LED instead of OLED and set it to Vivid mode.

I can't think of anything less in the spirit of what this forum is all about than this comment.
I'd wager that all of us have the money for most of these things at their retail price, but we are here for the deals. We all know that a dollar saved feels better than a dollar earned. And so with that in mind, your comment makes little sense.

Got this tv for 1400$, few months back Samsung error , I love it i stayed in firmware 1211, since they nerf the brightness but even so the tv is just awesome under 2k.

If i where to choose from lg or this samsung at the same price i would probably go for Lg for build quality will probably last you 5+yrs, Samsung for picture.

My samsung tv came in bent.

Thanks OP. See the price. At this rate, might see crazy-cheap prices by Black Friday. This is the same price as the bundled 85" QN90A, so for me, it has to go further down in price to get interesting. Wish they made a 75" S95B…

I can't decide if I should cancel the order or not haha. I have a 55" c9 but I a) would really love something larger and b) could prob sell the c9 for a few hundred to help with the cost of this. I don't know if it will go lower or not. They might do that "raise it to msrp the month before BF and then lower it to this price again" trick

Yes and no. IMO it's better by a wide margin than everything else in the $1700 and under price tag. When comparing to others at it's original $3000 msrp? Nah. I recommend using RTINGS for the fine comparisons....

Can't believe these prices. Still holding out for sub-$1k for 55 to replace my C1, but still a great value overall.

This is their latest model (Samsung S95B) so why are there such steep discount so soon? Only the Sony A95K is better.
