LG B4 55" vs Samsung QN95D 65" (4K Neo QLED)
The Verdict
LG's B4 OLED delivers exceptional contrast and color accuracy at a mid-premium price point, featuring 1100 nits brightness, Dolby Vision IQ, and a swift 1ms input lag ideal for gaming. Samsung's QN95D Neo QLED costs more than double but justifies premium positioning with a larger 65-inch screen, dramatically superior 3000-nit peak brightness for bright room performance, 144Hz refresh rate, and superior 4.2.2ch audio (70W vs 40W). Picture quality differences depend on viewing conditions,the QN95D's mini-LED backlighting excels in bright environments with superior blooming control, while the B4's OLED technology achieves deeper blacks and perfect contrast in dimmed spaces. Samsung includes Wi-Fi 6E and newer connectivity standards. For most buyers, the 55-inch LG B4 represents outstanding value with excellent gaming credentials and OLED advantages. However, those prioritizing maximum brightness, larger screens, and can justify the investment should consider the Samsung QN95D. Recommend the LG B4 for superior value and compact spaces.
