Hard to justify the Samsung epp prices with LG Oled so cheap. B series wins in value easily but I want QD Oled since I have a c2 for my gaming monitor. Hmmm!!

Idk, I sell TVs, and the Samsung blows away anything else. Except for a95k but that price is ridiculous.

HDR PQ is static, DV PQ is dynamic. DV is a must-have for QLED, OLED sets.

What about the returns due to the numerous issues with Samsung TVs? I'm so tempted to buy this because it is a beautiful TV but the reliability scares me and I've been burned by them before.

Got it. Pick up at bestbuy week ago. Best tv I've ever owned. Color calibration is great with firmware 1420.

A big deal is made in all the reviews about "lifted black levels" dependent on ambient light. Do you experience this?

Avoid this TV at all costs. The TV needs to be recalled due to it bending. If you do some research you can find tons of pictures of these bent in the box.

And their conclusion
"Ultimately, the difference between the three formats isn't that important. The quality of the TV itself has a much bigger impact on HDR"

Of course, if I have to pick between Samsung vs Sony/LG QLED/OLED, I'd rather go with more supported techs. I've watch sources from HBO Max DV vs Amazon HDR, DV PQ always has an upper hand.

You would go with more supported sources along with the loss in picture quality..or would you just buy the Sony A95K and receive superior picture and supported techs?

For me..no brainer, I would buy the Samsung if I had not bought the LG G1 last year
The Samsung is hands down a better picture than my G1

Ok, I understand your preference. However, I don't understand your first paragraph. Did you say HBO MAX has more supported sources with the loss of PQ?

What I meant was
Today would you buy an LG OLED , with a loss in picture quality compared to the Samsung S95B, to get more supported formats

or would you buy the Sony A95K to get the superior picture quality AND more supported formats?

Personally, as I stated before, better picture quality wins all day long for me, until the Sony gets closer in price to the Samsung OR LG releases a QD-OLED at a competitive price to the Samsung

Love the Dolby Vision comments. Some folks would sooner buy an IPS panel TV with DV than a QD-OLED without DV. As someone who owns both an LG OLED65C9 w/DV and the Samsung 65" S95B w/o DV, the Samsung is absolutely superior in picture quality and the HDR format becomes an afterthought. The panel technology matters so much more than HDR format and increased white brightness (C3) alone will not be enough for LG to catch Samsung.

Definitely fair to complain about Samsung's lack of support for formats (personally more irritated about Samsung's and LG's decision to not support DTS passthrough after finally implementing eARC and HDMI 2.1). But if you are on the fence about which TV to buy and picture quality is your biggest concern, this TV smashes everything else at this price.

I could not agree more with the bolded comment more
The Samsung S95B displaying HDR10 absolutely spanks my LG G1 playing Dolby vision

I just bought the QN90A too. Is this worth the upgrade?
