Our Verdict
Samsung QN90B
Samsung S95B OLED
The Samsung S95B OLED is a better TV than the Samsung QN90B. The main strength of the S95B is that it uses a QD-OLED panel to display perfect blacks and much brighter and more vivid colors than the QN90B, which makes the S95B the better choice for watching content in dark rooms. On the other hand, the QN90B is better if you need something for a really bright room, as it gets much brighter.
