Samsung boasts yet another success – the latest OLED 2025 (model S95F) has been officially awarded the Real Black certificate by the German VDE institute. This means that the television truly meets the highest standards for 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 its ability to keep the black level below 0.005 nits, minimises reflections, and doesn’t lose detail even when there is a lot of light around. In other words – we are talking about a television that displays "true black" where most screens show a grey blob.
“This is proof that our OLEDs set a new standard for quality” – comments Hoon Seol from Samsung Electronics Germany.
The head of VDE, Ansgar Hinz, emphasises: “Samsung OLED has stood out in the most challenging tests – from cinema conditions to bright living rooms. This is an example of technological perfection.”
What was checked?
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 screen tearing and smooth performance even during dynamic scenes. On top of that, the colours and contrast are impressive whether you are watching a film in 4K HDR or playing the latest titles.
For 19 consecutive years, Samsung has been number one in the TV market and it is evident that it has no intention of giving up its lead. The OLED S95F is another example that the company focuses not only on marketing slogans but also on real certifications that confirm quality.
