Great comment! Good to hear that you're not perceiving any issues with the contrast. I thought it looked amazing relative to the S95C with no coating, and I'd gladly take the anti-reflective benefits versus a small hit to contrast, but to be honest I didn't notice anything really.

Great to hear. My favourite TV too!

Excellent comment, thanks for sharing your experience. I think the slightly affected vibrancy, etc. is worth the trade off, and there's no OLED TV on the market with a better AG coating right now.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.

There are some fairly decent automatic settings but I like to warm the colour up a bit with the Warm 1 setting for colour temperature. Still exploring the best settings. Dynamic mode is certainly the brightest but a bit artificial looking.

@@gadgetguytech hope you can share your best settings recommendation soon

@@WiljanWiljan Is there a particular thing that you like watching / doing with yours? For example, settings needed for movies, gaming, etc?

Bravia 9. QN900D.

Hey thanks for your awesome compliment! I can't honestly say that I've seen much by way of contrast degradation because of the anti-glare coating. Sure, any coating will have some impact, but it's quite negligible compared to the S95C that I use daily. Temp wise, I asked Samsung how they got the extra brightness, and there's no change to the pixel coating chemistry (nano-crystals) but rather increases in voltage, etc that they feel they can use based on how the S95C performs and their learnings from it. So it prob does get a little hotter but within safe margins. I suppose if anything goes wrong due to heat dissipation, they'll need to replace it under warranty anyway. Still, not a problem you'd want to experience! I didn't notice any unusual heat around the back of the panel, however the One Connect Box was not mounted to the stand. If it was, there's still a gap between it and the panel so I don't think it would be a problem. Thanks for watching!

@@gadgetguytech Yoo appreciate your help man that helps me a lot, I’ve never liked and subbed so quick in my life🙏🏼 also man do u plan to make any other videos on the s95D maybe a comparison video, cause everybody would rather get the S90D over the S95D, my theory they simply don’t like the matte screen

Thanks so much for watching and glad you liked the video. Yes it’s definitely something that needs to be seen to understand how much improved the anti-glare coating is and what it means for people who love OLED but have bright rooms.

I watched your vidéo and I've been surprised that you made no comment on the reduced size videos that were displayed on the screen during the maki g of your vidéos. I don't know if these videos were 4k or not but if they were 4k it is totally anormal that they were not displayed in full screen size. 4k videos are normally displayed in full screen size on a 4k screen. I have the 77" Oled QN77S95D model of this TV and I have this problem, 4k movies aren't displayed in full screen as they should. It is totally abnormal to watch certified 4k movies on a certified 4k TV and see only reduced size pictures but you didn't said a word about it as if you didn't even saw it. I hope that your other reviens are than this one...

@@cverrcv Sorry, I only speak English

@@cverrcv Hi and thanks so much for watching the video and your comment. When you say that the 4K movies are not displayed in full screen, I'm assuming that you mean there are black bars at the top and bottom? This is because movies are made for movie theatre-shaped screens (with a 1:85:1 or 2:35:1 aspect ratio) and not TV screens, which have a less-wide 16:9 aspect ratio. Video that's made for TVs specifically will perfectly fill the screen because they are made with a 16:9 shape, but watching movies made for the cinema will not completely fit on a TV screen. That's why there are black areas that appear on the top and bottom of the movie. This is also called 'letterbox' format. You can 'zoom-in' a movie so it completely fills up the black spaces, but then you loose a bit of the width of the movie on the left and right sides, so TVs normally default to Letterbox format so you don't miss anything. You can change this in your settings so movies fill up the full screen if you prefer. I hope this helps and my apologies if I've misunderstood your comment.

It’s one of the best I’ve seen.

I appreciate your point of view, and thanks for commenting! My understanding is different - our TVs are 16:9 aspect ratio while cinema screens have traditionally been wider, usual 1.85:1 or 2:39:1 (anamorphic). It has been this way long before we had widescreen TVs. Feature films made for the cinema are still made with this aspect ratio, while video made specifically for TV (Netflix, etc) is 16:9. So, in order to show the entire width of a movie made for cinema screens on a TV, this means that there will be blank areas at the top and bottom of the picture. It's like trying to fit a wider rectangle into a narrower rectangle, so you need to shrink the wide rectangle down and this results in blank spaces at the top and bottom. You can, of course, set your TV to 'fill' the top and bottom with the full picture, but this will then cut off some of the width on the left and right. In terms of the size of a movie file, yes, you are correct that this would be very large for use in cinemas, as the file format is called Digital Cinema Package (DCP) and this does not use a lot of compression. However, for standard-sized TVs, a full 4K video can be compressed down to about 35 gigabytes (HEVC). This is the full aspect ratio version of the movie, and there is nothing 'left out' at the top or bottom. I don't really know why today's TVs aren't wider, as it would be great if they fit an entire cinema sized movie on their screens without the black bars, but for some reason they settled on 16:9 aspect ratio. It could have been that it was difficult to make TV panels wider in the early days, or maybe they just want you to go into a cinema for the full experience!

Interesting, let us know what you're seeing with this TV in bright rooms. Thanks for your comment.

It's not bad in bright rooms, it's just not as good.

Spotted the LG-fan, how's that colour volume looking?

You're the only one saying this because everybody else is saying the exact opposite and the black on this TV has not been lifted, they are simply just exactly what they should be... as a matter of fact, all the colours of this TV have veen certified by Pantone and this is including the white and black...

It's amazing how 77in doesn't even seem that big anymore. I just tested the 85-inch Samsung Q900D which seems about the same size. We reviewed it on my site too: www.gadgetguy.com.au/samsung-qn900d-review-neo-qled-8k-tv/

@@gadgetguytech I agree. But for most people, a 77" tv (or 65" wide) is very large. Have an 83" c2 and everything seems small once u go large....

@@michael-4k4000 Yes, very true, 77in is still quite large, especially for people in smaller places like apartments, etc in large cities. For them, 55in is still a great size.

No sponsorship. Why do you say it’s pure garbage? Are you referring to the TV or the video? Also, it’s set up ‘out of the box’ so not calibrated other than through the SmartThings self calibration tool. I wanted it to be as close and experienced to what a consumer could expect when buying it themselves.

- troll😂

Thanks for watching! The anti-reflective coating also prevents internal lights / lamps from being reflected, plus reflections of yourself. I have the 77in S95C from last year and I can see myself in it as my sofa is fairly close to it. The panel is also 20% brighter, which is good for any situation. Also, I don't know if I agree that nobody likes the matte screen. What do you think is better, a shiny black mirror when the TV is off or a matte one? Personal preference but I'd prefer a matte one.

@gadgetguytech yes I agree it was hyperbole and some people like the matte screen. It's like having a giant computer monitor as my tv. I've seen many reviews which demonstrate where the blacks suffer from the screen and where colors were similarly diluted. If the tv is going in a room with tons of light and windows it probably makes sense, but that is not my use case so it's a no-go for me.

@@MrUpscaleman Unlike AR coatings on monitors, etc, this one doesn't have a negative impact on the brightness or the colour, as it is still a Pantone certified screen so very colour accurate, and brighter than last year's model. The new tech means you can now use OLED in a bright room (if that's what you need). For me personally, I have a brighter room but love the OLED look, which means no compromises now vs last year. However, if you don't need it, the 2023 Samsung S95C is a fantastic option and a cheaper price.

@gadgetguytech I have a 77 A95L. It needs to go back for a warranty claim. I need a new TV. I can't decide between another A95L, G4 or Bravia 9. I've ruled out the matte screen.
