Samsung SUHD TVs chase OLED with quantum dots, moth's eyes

Last year LG's OLED TVs ruled the picture-quality roost, but archrival Samsung has been hard at work beefing up its LED LCD-based SUHD sets to compete. They've also added Smart Home and improved home-theater control.

Samsung KS9500 Review – SUHD 4K Ultra HD 240MR Smart LED 4k TV (UN55KS9500, UN65KS9500)

While not quite the flagship 2016 SUHD 4K HDR TV from Samsung's so-far excellent lineup of models for this year , the KS9500 is definitely a worthwhile contender for any serious home entertainment setup. Offering nearly the same specs and quality as...

Excellent peak brightness ; Superb High Dynamic Range ; Tizen smart OS works wonderfully ; The TV looks great ; Color performance is fantastic ; Deep, rich black levels ; Amazing contrast ; Great motion control performance

VA display panel means poor viewing angles ; No 3D support ; Local dimming is mediocre ; No full-array LED backlighting ; Curved screen adds almost $200 pointless dollars to price

A few minor to moderate flaws aside, the 2016 Samsung SUHD KS9500 delivers some of the best picture performance we’ve seen in any 2016 LCD 4K HDR TV and is only beaten out by a few Full-array LED models and LG’s 2016 OLED 4K HDR TVs . This TV is one...

Samsung KS9500 TV

The Samsung KS9500 4k UHD TV is a very well balanced TV. Its picture quality is great no matter the room, source or content being played. It can get very bright and handles reflections well. When viewed from the side though, its picture quality...

Great TV for movies especially HDR content. ; Can get extremely bright and has very low reflection. ; Great gaming TV with low input lag.

Loses picture quality at an angle.

Samsung UE65KS9500

The £3,800 UE65KS9500 is Samsung's flagship 65-inch TV for 2016. It's chock-full of headline-grabbing features: an unprecedented, HDR-friendly peak brightness of 1,400 nits, a direct backlight system with local dimming, quantum dot colours, a curved...

Samsung 65KS9500

Samsung normally makes the first big TV technology splash at every CES by hosting an exclusive, invite-only event two nights before the show actually begins. And it did the same again this year with an event at the Keep Memory Alive Center in Las Vegas.

Samsung UE65KS9500 review

Superb HDR image ; Notably subtlety in colour palette ; Very detailed ; Smooth motion

Samsung UE65KS9500 review

Samsung's flagship UHD/HDR TV sets new standards

Stunning HDR picture quality ; Appealing curved screen design ; Good sound quality ; Effective HDR upscaling

Some HDR backlight issues ; Striping with UHD Blu-rays ; Curved screen distorts reflections ; No 3D support

The UE65KS9500 produces hands down the most dramatic demonstration of what new HDR technology is capable of. Its brightness in particular is unprecedented, which helps it deliver a much fuller sense of HDR's expanded light range and colour capabilities...

Samsung KS9500 SUHD TV review: Brightest HDR, pitched on a curve

Ask Samsung and it will tell you that curved is very much where you should be with televisions. Having pushed the curved display as the next big thing after 3D - which is a feature incidentally absent from the KS9500 - the company still rates its...

Excellent HDR delivery, fully of vibrancy and punch, One Connect box is convenient, pretty good sound delivery

Build quality could be better, EPG is a little behind the times

Samsung offers a lot of TVs at a lot of different price points. From the first step on the Quantum Dot HDR ladder with the KS7000 up to this KS9500, we've seen impressive specs across the lineup. But the KS9500 really makes its mark.
