LG G3 vs. Samsung S95C OLED - Which TV Has the Best Picture

**The Ultimate Showdown: LG G3 vs Samsung S95C OLED TVs**

Welcome to this video where we dive into the world of high-end OLED televisions. Today, we're comparing two of the best TVs I've ever tested in CET lab—LG's reigning champion, the G3, and Samsung's formidable challenger, the Quantum Dot-enhanced S95C. Both are top-tier OLED models, and this is going to be an epic showdown.

### **Introduction to the Contestants**

In one corner, we have LG's G3. This television represents the pinnacle of LG's OLED technology, offering stunning picture quality and a sleek design. It’s designed to be flush with the wall, thanks to its Gallery look, which gives it a premium aesthetic. In fact, it even comes with a special bracket for this purpose, but interestingly, it doesn’t include a stand. If you want to use one, you’ll need to shell out an extra $150.

In the other corner is Samsung's S95C. As the biggest name in TVs, Samsung brings a lot to the table with its Quantum Dot technology, which enhances color accuracy and brightness. This TV is relatively new to the big screen OLED market, but it’s already making waves with its impressive performance.

### **Pricing and Value**

Before we get into the nitty-gritty of features, let’s talk about price. Both TVs are not for the faint of heart in terms of budget. The 65-inch models each cost around $3,000. That’s significantly more than LG's 2023 OLED TV, the C3, which I believe is a better option for most people. It’s also double or triple the price of comparable non-OLED models. However, if you can afford it, these TVs are undoubtedly worth the investment.

### **Design and Features**

Starting with design, LG's G3 has that premium Gallery look, but Samsung's S95C includes a stand as part of the package, which I actually prefer because it adds to its sleek appearance. The panel on the Samsung TV is even thinner than LG’s, giving it a more modern vibe.

One unique feature of the Samsung TV is its external connection box, called One Connect. This box houses all the HDMI and other connections, including power, allowing you to stash the cords in a cabinet for a cleaner installation. The TV itself doesn’t have any inputs on the back, which is a bit unconventional but functional.

When it comes to remotes, LG goes big with its multi-button remote featuring a scroll wheel and motion tracking. It’s quite techy, but Samsung takes simplicity to another level with its minimalist design—just a few buttons and the ability to recharge via USB or even sunlight thanks to a photo voltaic panel on the back.

### **Gaming Features**

Both TVs are loaded with great game modes that cater to tech-savvy gamers. LG’s game mode offers more options, which might appeal to some users, but Samsung’s design is undeniably cooler. Both TVs display all the VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) and live frame rate info you could want.

Samsung also includes built-in cloud gaming, which is a nice feature, though I think most people would be better off connecting their consoles like PS5 or Xbox Series X directly to these high-end TVs and calling it a day.

### **Image Quality: OLED at Its Best**

The standout feature of both TVs is their image quality, thanks to OLED technology. This organic light-emitting diode tech creates perfect black levels and infinite contrast, setting them apart from cheaper OLED models. The brightness is where they really shine, with both TVs achieving over 1,300 nits in my testing. For reference, the LG C3, which is a step below these two, only managed just over 800 nits.

In terms of picture quality, the LG G3 edges out the Samsung S95C when it comes to brightness and shadow detail. It also does an excellent job at reducing reflections, making it ideal for bright room environments. The Samsung TV, on the other hand, wins in color accuracy, especially with its Quantum Dot technology. Reds, in particular, look richer and more natural on the Samsung.

### **Performance in Different Lighting Conditions**

For those who watch TV in various lighting conditions, the LG G3 is a game-changer. It’s easily the best OLED TV I’ve seen for handling bright rooms. While both TVs perform well in dimly lit environments, the LG G3 excels in maintaining picture quality even with the lights on.

That said, if you’re looking for a TV to use in extremely bright spaces, mini LED models are still superior. But for all-around performance, the LG G3 is unmatched.

### **Final Verdict**

Both TVs are top-tier and deliver stunning image quality. If you can afford it, Samsung’s superior design and color accuracy make it a definite perk. However, the LG G3 wins overall with its superb picture quality, making it the better choice for most people.

This has been a quick look at what I consider to be the two best TVs ever tested in CET lab. If you enjoyed this video, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and check out our other content. Thanks for watching, and I’ll see you in the next video!
