Samsung is celebrating another success – the latest OLED 2025 (model S95F) has been officially awarded by the German institute VDE with the Real Black certification. This means that the television actually meets the highest standards in black reproduction, not only in a perfectly dark room but also in a bright living room or even in direct sunlight.
In tests, the panel with Glare-Free 2.0 technology confirmed that it can maintain a black level below 0.005 nits, minimises reflections, and does not lose details when there is a lot of light around. In other words – we are talking about a television that shows "black black" where most screens show a grey blob.
“This is proof that our OLEDs set a new standard in quality” – comments Hoon Seol from Samsung Electronics Germany.
On the other hand, the head of VDE, Ansgar Hinz, emphasises: “Samsung OLED has stood out in the toughest tests – from cinema conditions to bright living rooms. This is an example of technological perfection.”
What was tested?
Black level in a dark room – must be ≤0.005 nits.
Reflections in a bright room – minimal disturbances under strong light.
Screen gloss – effectiveness of the Glare-Free coating.
Television for movies and gamers
In addition to the Real Black certification, Samsung adds something for gamers – AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility. This means no image tearing and smooth performance even during dynamic scenes. Plus, the colours and contrast work wonders whether you're watching a film in 4K HDR or playing the latest titles.
Samsung has been number one in the TV market for 19 consecutive years, and it's clear they're not planning on giving up the lead. The OLED S95F is another example of the company focusing not only on marketing slogans but also on real certifications that confirm quality.
