Samsung 2025 S95F?

[Dan_1981]

Anyone got any real world experience with this new Samsung?

It'd be the most expensive TV i've ever bought but our current Hi-Sense is giving up the ghost and i've got an offer through a work deal at the moment which means I can get the 55" version of the TV plus a QS700F soundbar thrown in for £1600

Seems a pretty decent enough deal, and I can't find anyone with stock of either the 2024 LG G4 or the equivalent Samsung from last year.

Anything else that I should consider before blowing a fair amount of cash on a tv!

Although, I'm in Oz but I just got a stupidly great deal through work for a Samsung's entry level 83S85F OLED with the same QS700F soundbar for about the same price as what you are offered for the 55inch. Amazing TV and soundbar combo with the Samsung Q-Symphony setup that gives you sound from your tv and soundbar at the same time. I was looking at the S90F and S95F and they are really amazing as well. Coming from a 5yr old LED TV and an OK soundbar setup to the OLED was just breath taking even looking at 1080p contents. I've found some 4K contents and it just blows you away. I was looking at TCL Mini LED tv before being offered the deal through work. I was thinking mini LED would suit me better because my living room has lots of big windows and natural light. But the OLED is very good during the daytime even on a really bright day as long as the light is not directly in front of the TV which would have reflection due to its semi gloss screen.

I don't know what the price for the S95F TV alone is in the UK but I suspect it would be a lot more than what you'd been offered for both. Is it worth spending the money? It depends, if you have easy access to 4K contents or not and also would a bigger TV like a 65inch fit your room? If your answer is no to 4K content and a bigger TV fits then I would go for a 65inch Mini LED like the TCL 7 or 8 series with a different soundbar instead and save yourself some cash. Without the 4K content, the OLED is wasted as mini LED has really caught up to OLED and really give it a run for its money now. At the size you are getting, my recommendation would be a bigger 65 or even 75 inch Mini LED if it fits your room instead of a smaller 55 inch OLED.

Try this TCL 65C7K for normal TV watching including HD sports etc. this is really good for that and as good as a OLED. If you look around, you'll probably get it for cheaper.
