LG OLED C2 vs. Samsung QD-OLED: Which TV Technology Is Better?
The Samsung S95B is one of the first TVs to combine OLED and quantum dots, taking on top performers such as the LG C2.
For several years, OLED TVs from LG and Sony have topped our TV ratings due to their excellent overall picture quality, compelling HDR performance, and nearly unlimited viewing angles. All of this has made OLED TVs the top choice for consumers seeking a cutting-edge TV viewing experience and willing to pay a premium for it.
However, Samsung and Sony announced earlier this year that they would launch a new type of OLED TV called QD-OLED in 2022, promising a few enhancements such as higher peak brightness and more vibrant colors that could make OLED TVs even better. The key component is the use of quantum dots to produce colors rather than a color filter. (See below for a more in-depth look at the technology.)
We recently completed the first tests of a new QD-OLED TV, the Samsung QN55S95B, as well as the LG 55 OLED C2 PUA, which employs the same technology found in all OLED TVs for nearly a decade. This model takes the place of the LG C1 OLED TV, which was our top-rated 4K television last year.
Both of these 55-inch TVs are top-tier models in their respective companies' lineups. The LG C2 set is currently selling for around $1,800 at retailers such as Best Buy and Crutchfield, which is about $400 less expensive than the 55-inch Samsung S95B, which is currently selling for around $2,200 at retailers such as Amazon and Crutchfield.
We'll go into great detail about our tests and what we discovered in our labs further down. But, for now, let's get to the point: These are some of the best 4K TVs you can buy this year, with many of the differences we saw in our labs being most noticeable when the sets are placed next to each other in the same room.
The Samsung is the brightest OLED TV we've ever tested, giving it an advantage in areas like HDR performance and color vibrancy, even when viewing from extreme angles. However, with most content, the LG delivered the same level of performance, with more accurate colors and better contrast in darker scenes. As we explain in greater detail below, neither set could be declared a clear winner.
