Offering the total QD-OLED experience, the Samsung S95C is still the definition of a premium TV. It has an outstanding picture with deep black levels combined with higher fullscreen brightness than any of the best OLED TVs today, and is perfect for gamers. With the Samsung S95D due in spring 2024, which promises extra anti-reflection tech as well as a 20% boost in brightness, the S95C is sure to get some more price drops. We’ve seen the 55-inch S95C for as low as $1,499 / £1,449 before, but if you end up paying our target price above, you’ll still be getting a good deal. The rest of this review remains as previously published.James DavidsonStaff Writer, TV HardwareSamsung S95C OLED TV: Two-minute review(Image credit: Future)After more than a decade telling us not to buy OLED TVs, in 2022 Samsung released… an OLED TV. Or, at any rate, its own new spin on OLED technology, powered by Quantum Dots. The S95B TVs were pretty remarkable given their tech debut status – but the new S95Cs outgun them in almost every department.Especially brightness. Samsung has managed to find almost 40% more brightness than it delivered with last year’s S95B QD-OLED models. A brightness increase of this magnitude would be significant with any TV, but it’s truly transformational when applied to a self-emissive, every-pixel-makes-its-own-light technology like OLED.The extra brightness is particularly effective in taking high dynamic range video to a whole new level of enjoyment, drama and realism, but also feeds gloriously into the S95C’s colours, unlocking levels of colour volume and purity, even in bright colour areas, we’ve never seen before on an OLED TV. This reminds us of QD OLED’s biggest selling point: the way it creates its colours using purely red, green and blue elements, without the extra white element used by traditional OLED TVs.Sharpness, upscaling and viewing angles are all superb too, and even the S95C’s sound quality is a big step up from that of its predecessor. The Samsung S95C faces some seriously stiff competition this year from the best 4K TVs, but it delivers more than enough of a leap over its already impressive predecessor to mean that it will surely be right in the mix with the best OLED TVs when awards season comes round.Samsung S95C OLED TV review: price and release dateRelease date: March 2023 55-inch: £2,399 / $2,499 / AU$3,99965-inch: £3,599 / $3,299 / AU$4,99977-inch: £5,099 / $4,499 / AU$7,999As it did in 2022, Samsung has decided to pitch the 65-inch S95C slightly below its flagship 4K Neo QLED mini-LED TV. Only £100/$100 below, but that’s still enough of a gap to make a statement about where Samsung believes its ultimate picture technology lies. I’m pretty convinced that many AV enthusiasts won’t agree with Samsung on this, but hey – if it means we get the S95C for a little less than we would if it was positioned as the flagship model, who are we to complain?The S95C is Samsung’s premium QD-OLED offering for 2023, though. Unlike 2022, Samsung is this year introducing two QD-OLED TV tiers, with the cheaper S90Cs delivering a more subdued performance increase over the S95Bs but costing a hefty £600 less.The 65-inch S95C is joined by a new 77-inch sibling, as well as a more expected 55-inch option. These cost £5,099 / $4,499 and £2,399 / $2,499 respectively.Samsung S95C OLED TV review: SpecsSwipe to scroll horizontallyScreen type:Quantum Dot OLEDRefresh rate:120HzHDR support:HDR10, HDR10+, HLGAudio support:Dolby Atmos, DTSSmart TV:TizenHDMI ports:4 HDMI 2.1Built-in tuner:ATSC 3.0The S95C uses Samsung’s Slim One Connect box to make connections to external sources. (Image credit: Future)Samsung S95C OLED TV review: featuresSecond-gen Quantum Dot OLED panelNative 4K resolution with HDR supportAI processing drawn from 20 Neural networksBy far the most eye-catching feature of the S95C is that it introduces us to the second generation of Samsung’s Quantum Dot OLED panel. The highlight of which is the 40% or so extra brightness it achieves. This is down to a combination of tweaks to the organic materials it uses, switching to more efficient deuterium, and introducing an OLED brightness booster designed to optimise (down to pixel level) an image’s brightest and darkest parts.The improvements that deliver this key new level of brightness do so without needing significantly more power, too, meaning the S95C doesn’t have to worry about falling foul of the EU’s heavy handed new power consumption regulations.The S95C’s new-found brightness feeds into the same pure red, green and blue colour system that distinguishes Samsung’s OLED take from the traditional, so-called WOLED take. So we’d hope to be seeing even more richly saturated colours than we got from the S95B.Since QD-OLED is, like WOLED, a self-emissive technology, each and every pixel in the S95C’s pictures can produce its own light and colour, hopefully resulting in levels of local contrast that you just can’t get on even the best LCD TVs. The panels’ self-emissive nature also means you can watch the S95C from wide viewing angles without the picture losing colour or contrast (unlike the vast majority of LCD TVs).Samsung has upgraded its processor this year, drawing on the accumulated know-how of no less than 20 individual neural networks, to deliver a number of further benefits beyond the previously mentioned brightness booster. Perceptual colour mapping, for instance, is designed to express colours so that they more closely resemble the sort of tones the human eye sees in the real world. There’s enhanced object detection processing, too, to help the picture look more like your eyes perceive depth and focus in the real world. The new enhanced AI elements of the S95C’s ‘Neural Quantum 4K’ processor are also promised to feed into an improved 4K upscaling process for HD and SD content.The S95C’s 4K resolution is backed up by support for the HDR10, HLG and HDR10+ HDR formats. This is fine so far as it goes, but Samsung’s continuing refusal to also onboard the popular Dolby Vision HDR format still frustrates. Especially given how widespread content mastered in Dolby’s premium HDR format is.Samsung provides a small but fairly diverse range of picture presets, as well as numerous tools for adjusting pretty much every aspect of the TV’s processing and core picture balances and settings. You can also calibrate the picture yourself to a startlingly accurate level using just the TV’s Smart Calibration system in conjunction with your mobile phone.We’ll cover the S95C’s impressive gaming support and less impressive smart TV interface later. One last thing definitely worth covering here, though, is the S95C’s promising audio set up. For starters it deploys a 4.2.2 configuration of real (rather than virtual) speaker channels that combines eight substantial mid/bass drivers spread right across the TV’s rear with smaller detail speakers ranged around the TV’s edges. It then feeds a promising 70W of power into these speakers, and applies the latest version of Samsung’s Object Tracking Sound+ system to make specific sound effects appear to be coming from the correct place on the screen. Or maybe also the correct place just off the screen.You can always add one of the best Dolby Atmos soundbars if you want to step the sound accompanying the S95C up a few gears. As with all of Samsung’s premium TVs in recent years you can connect the S95C to a Samsung soundbar through its Q Symphony system, where the TV’s speakers join forces intelligently with those of the soundbar to create a bigger and more detailed soundstage. You can even wirelessly transmit (lossy) Dolby Atmos from the TV to a compatible Samsung soundbar.The S95C’s pictures set dazzling new standards.
