![]() ![]() If the sound produced by the QN65S959BAF’s 60-watt speakers isn’t as good as its picture, it’s still more than good enough to satisfy any non-audiophiles. Samsung 65-inch Class S95B OLED 4K Smart TV (QN65S95BAF) review: Audio But for a TV this expensive, every detail counts, and this is one where the QN65S95BAF just fails to rise to the challenge. And, to reiterate, seeing the differences is not easy with most video. This may be due to some undesirable interaction the quantum dots and the OLED panel as this is the first QD-OLED set we’ve reviewed, it’s difficult to say for sure. In short, the QN65S95BAF’s picture is bright and both rich and accurate with its colors. HDR color was excellent, too, with the Samsung covering 99.8% of the UHDA-P3 color gamut, more than the Sony’s 97.2%. We saw even better brightness from the QN65S95BAF with HDR content, with the set measuring about 1,050 nits with a 10% field (our standard for brightness readings), versus just over 600 nits for the Sony A80J. For comparison, the Sony A80J, one of our favorite sets of 2021, was slightly less accurate in its Custom mode with a Delta-E of 3.3645, but covered more of the Rec.709 gamut (110.4%). Using the same settings, the set’s brightness registered as 329.5 nits-a high result for an OLED TV. In SDR Filmmaker Mode (the closest to an out-of-the-box calibration option) with the Brightness Optimization setting off, the QN65S95BAF’s Delta-E value, which measures how the source color differs from the displayed color (with lower numbers being better) was a fine 3.0184, and the picture covered exactly 100% of the Rec.709 color gamut. We tested the set using an X-Rite i1 Pro spectrophotometer, a SpectraCal VideoForge Pro pattern generator, and Portrait Displays’ Calman calibration software and encountered some outstanding results. One of the first TVs on the market to fuse OLED and quantum dot technologies into a single set, the QN65S96BAF all but promises next-generation picture quality by dint of its existence-and largely delivers.
