LG G4 77" vs Samsung S95D 65"
The Verdict
LG's G4 77" commands a premium with its larger MLA OLED panel delivering 2100 nits brightness and Dolby Vision IQ support, ideal for bright rooms and cinematic content. Samsung's S95D 65" counters with superior QD-OLED technology offering deeper blacks, a faster 144Hz refresh rate, and Object Tracking Sound+ for immersive audio,though its 2000-nit peak brightness trails slightly. Gaming performance matches with 1ms input lag and VRR/ALLM support on both. The 12-inch size difference is substantial; LG suits larger living spaces while Samsung fits tighter setups. At $700 less, Samsung offers exceptional value with tech that rivals LG's flagship capabilities. For sheer screen real estate and brightness performance, the LG G4 edges ahead, but the Samsung S95D delivers superior OLED panel technology and refresh rates at a more accessible price point. Choose the LG for commanding presence; pick Samsung for cutting-edge OLED science and budget consciousness.
